حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، عَنْ قَيْسٍ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ، قَالَ وَأَشَارَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِيَدِهِ نَحْوَ الْيَمَنِ ‏"‏ الإِيمَانُ هَا هُنَا ـ مَرَّتَيْنِ ـ أَلاَ وَإِنَّ الْقَسْوَةَ وَغِلَظَ الْقُلُوبِ فِي الْفَدَّادِينَ حَيْثُ يَطْلُعُ قَرْنَا الشَّيْطَانِ رَبِيعَةَ وَمُضَرَ ‏"‏‏.‏

Muḥammad ibn al-Muthannā narrated to us: Yaḥyā ibn Saʿīd narrated to us, from Ismāʿīl, from Qays, from Abū Masʿūd, who said: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, pointed with his hand toward Yemen and said, ‘Faith is here’—twice. ‘Indeed, harshness and hard-heartedness are among the loud-voiced herdsmen, where the two horns of Satan rise: Rabīʿah and Muḍar.’

Notes and open questions — unreviewed
  • Al-faddādūn is rendered as ‘loud-voiced herdsmen’; the source uses a marked term for a group associated with livestock.
