English translation

3936. Abū Hurairah narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Leadership is among the Quraish, and reasoning and judgment is among the Anṣār, and the Adhān is among the Ethiopians, and the trust is among Al-Azd." meaning Yemen. (Hasan) (Another chain) from Abū Hurairah, but he did not narrate it in Marfū' form. And this is more correct than the narration of Zaid bin Ḥubāb.

Arabic text

٣٩٣٦ - حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌زَيْدُ بْنُ حُبَابٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُعَاوِيَةُ بْنُ صَالِحٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌أَبُو مَرْيَمَ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «الْمُلْكُ فِي قُرَيْشٍ،» وَالْقَضَاءُ فِي الْأَنْصَارِ، وَالْأَذَانُ فِي الْحَبَشَةِ، وَالْأَمَانَةُ فِي الْأَزْدِ يَعْنِي الْيَمَنَ. ٣٩٣٦ (م) - حَدَّثَنَا ‌مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا ‌عَبْدُ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنُ مَهْدِيٍّ ، عَنْ ‌مُعَاوِيَةَ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي مَرْيَمَ الْأَنْصَارِيِّ ، عَنْ ‌أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ نَحْوَهُ، وَلَمْ يَرْفَعْهُ. وَهَذَا أَصَحُّ مِنْ حَدِيثِ زَيْدِ بْنِ حُبَابٍ

Commentary

Leadearship and rule was with the Quraish. The Prophet sent Mu'ād bin Jabal as a Judge and he was an Anṣārī, so the judgeship is among the Anṣār. Bilāl was an Ethiopian, so they are best Mu'adh-dhin. According to the statement of the Prophet ﷺ the Yemenis are trustworthy and intelligent people.
