The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "From this side from the east, afflictions will appear. Rudeness and lack of mercy
are characteristics of the rural bedouins who are busy with their camels and cows (and pay no
attention to religion). Such are the tribes of Rabi`a and Mudar."
Sahih al-Bukhari Book 61, Hadith 8

Ibn `Abbas recited the Quranic Verse:--'Except to be kind to me for my kin-ship to you--" (42.23)
Sa`id bin Jubair said, "(The Verse implies) the kinship of Muhammad." Ibn `Abbas said, "There was
not a single house (i.e. sub-tribe) of Quraish but had a kinship to the Prophet (ﷺ) and so the above Verse
was revealed in this connection, and its interpretation is: 'O Quraish! You should keep good relation
between me (i.e. Muhammad) and you."

I heard Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) saying, "Pride and arrogance are characteristics of the rural bedouins while
calmness is found among the owners of sheep. Belief is Yemenite, and wisdom is also Yemenite i.e.
the Yemenites are well-known for their true belief and wisdom)." Abu `Abdullah (Al-Bukhari) said,
"Yemen was called so because it is situated to the right of the Ka`ba, and Sham was called so because
it is situated to the left of the Ka`ba."
