وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ مُوسَى، حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عِيسَى، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، عَنْ أَبِي حَازِمٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ ؓ، قَالَ:
بَيْنَمَا رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فِي الْمَدِينَةِ قَالَ: اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، اللهُ أَكْبَرُ، قَدْ جَاءَ نَصْرُ اللهِ وَالْفَتْحُ، وَجَاءَ أَهْلُ الْيَمَنِ، قِيلَ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، وَمَا أَهْلُ الْيَمَنِ ؟ قَالَ: قَوْمٌ رَقِيقَةٌ قُلُوبُهُمْ، لَيِّنَةٌ طَاعَتُهُمُ، الْإِيمَانُ يَمَانٍ، وَالْحِكْمَةُ يَمَانِيَةٌ

✧ While the Messenger of God ﷺ was in Madinah, he said: "God is most great, God is most great. God's help and victory have come, and the people of Yemen have come." It was said: "O Messenger of God, who are the people of Yemen?" He said: "A people with tender hearts, soft in obedience. Faith is Yemeni, and wisdom is Yemeni."
