Hadith on Yemen: Faith is Yemeni, peace among sheep

Abu Huraira reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Faith is from Yemen and unbelief is from the east. Tranquility is found among people who tend to sheep. Pride and showing off are found among the uncivil owners of horses and camels.
