Abd ar-Razzaq narrated from Ma‘mar, from Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him): We were with the Prophet (ﷺ) when a man, I think from Qays, came and said: “O Messenger of Allah, curse Himyar.” He turned away from him. The man came from the other side, and he turned away. He came again from the other side, and he turned away. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said: “May Allah have mercy on Himyar; their mouths 1 are peace, their hands are food, and they are people of trust and faith.”

(۱) قوله: أفواههم سلام: أي ذات سلام أو محل سلام. وأيديهم طعام أي ذات طعام. قاله شارح، فالمضاف مقدر لصحة الحمل، والمعنى أنهم يفشون السلام ويطعمون الطعام، فجمعوا بين الإحسان وحلاوة اللسان. كذا في «المرقاة».
