Ibn Hajar al-Haytami authored a book titled "Mablagh al-Arab fi Fakhr al-Arab" (The Utmost Attainment in the Glory of Arabs), in which he compiled the prophetic traditions (hadiths) concerning the virtues of Arabs and the prohibition of hating them. Among these traditions are: that Allah chose the Arabs from His creation, then the Quraysh from the Arabs, then Banu Hashim from the Quraysh, and then He chose the Prophet from them. And that whoever loves the Arabs has loved the Prophet, and whoever hates them has hated the Prophet. And love for Quraysh and the Arabs is faith, while hatred for them is disbelief.
