حَدَّثَنَا هَدَّابُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ الأَزْدِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ سِمَاكِ بْنِ حَرْبٍ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ جَابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ، يَقُولُ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ ‏"‏ لاَ يَزَالُ الإِسْلاَمُ عَزِيزًا إِلَى اثْنَىْ عَشَرَ خَلِيفَةً ‏"‏ ‏.‏ ثُمَّ قَالَ كَلِمَةً لَمْ أَفْهَمْهَا فَقُلْتُ لأَبِي مَا قَالَ فَقَالَ ‏"‏ كُلُّهُمْ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

It has been narrated on the authority of Jabir b. Samura who said:I heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Islam will continue to be triumphant until there have been twelve Caliphs. Then the Prophet (ﷺ) said something which I could not understand. I asked my father: What did he say? He said: He has said that all of them (twelve Caliphs) will be from the Quraish

[Collection & Reference]: Narration #1821d in Sahih Muslim.

[Authenticity & Isnad]: Authentic (Sahih) by consensus of the scholars through its inclusion in the Sahihayn.

[Core Subject]: The Prophet ﷺ foretold that the caliphate after him would last thirty years and then become kingship, and that the religion would stay strong under twelve rulers, all from Quraysh.

[Described Characteristics]: Safinah counted the thirty years: Abu Bakr two, Umar ten, Uthman twelve, Ali six. The thirtieth year was completed by al-Hasan's months, after which Mu'awiyah ruled.

[Timeline & Context]: The thirty years ran from 11 to 41 AH, and kingship followed; this has passed.

[Prophetic Practice]: 'Hold to my Sunnah and the Sunnah of the rightly guided caliphs after me; bite onto it with your molar teeth.'
