حديثُ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو أَبي مَسْعودٍ قَالَ: أَشارَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِيَدِهِ نَحْوَ الْيَمَنِ فَقالَ: الإِيمانُ يَمانٍ هَهنا، أَلا إِنَّ الْقَسْوَةَ وَغِلَظَ الْقُلُوبِ في الْفَدَّادِينَ عِنْدَ أُصولِ أَذْنابِ الإِبْلِ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنا الشَّيْطانِ في رَبيعَةَ وَمُضَرَ.
‘Uqba bin Amr and Abû Mas‘ûd Narrated from:
Allâh’s Messenger صلى الله عليه وسلم pointed with his hand towards Yemen and said, “True Belief is Yemenite yonder (i.e. the Yemenites have true Belief and they embrace Islâm readily), but sternness and mercilessness are the qualities of those rural bedouins who are busy with their camels and pay no attention to the religion, (then pointing towards the east he صلى الله عليه وسلم said): "There, from where comes out the two sides of the head of Satan, namely the tribe of Rabî'a and Mudar." ( Sahih Al-Bukhârî, Hadîth No. 521, Vol. 4)
