We are two things.

^ for those good guesses. Not quite what I was thinking of though. I think my questions are too general, so will add, firstly:
We are mentioned in the Qur'an.
We are always mentioned together.
That people asked their prophet to request something inferior to us instead.

The answer is/are actual physical things, rather than concepts/virtues.
And they're not people, which is in the "Who am I?" thread...

Translation of Qur'anic verses addressed to that people, the Children of Israil:
And We shaded you with clouds and sent down to you manna and quails, [saying], "Eat from the good things with which We have provided you." And they wronged Us not - but they were [only] wronging themselves. (Qur'an 2:57)
And [recall] when you said, "O Moses, we can never endure one [kind of] food. So call upon your Lord to bring forth for us from the earth its green herbs and its cucumbers and its garlic and its lentils and its onions." [Moses] said, "Would you exchange what is better for what is less? Go into [any] settlement and indeed, you will have what you have asked." And they were covered with humiliation and poverty and returned with anger from Allah [upon them]. That was because they [repeatedly] disbelieved in the signs of Allah and killed the prophets without right. That was because they disobeyed and were [habitually] transgressing. (2:61)

Have you not considered, [O Muhammad], how your Lord dealt with the companions of the elephant?
Did He not make their plan into misguidance? And He sent against them birds in flocks,
Striking them with stones of hard clay,
And He made them like eaten straw. (Surat al Fil)

And I inform you of what you eat, and what you store in your houses. Surely, therein is a sign for you, if you believe. (3:49)
