Sunan Abi Dawud 4279 (Book 38, Hadith 1) #24569
The Twelve Caliphs

SUMMARY: The Prophet ﷺ said that the religion will continue to be established until there are twelve caliphs, all of whom will belong to Quraysh.

Narrated Jabir ibn Samurah: The Prophet said: The religion will continue to be established till there are twelve caliphs over you, and the whole community will agree on each of them. I then heard from the Prophet some remarks which I could not understand. I asked my father: What is he saying: He said: all of them will belong to Quraysh.
حَدَّثَنَا عَمْرُو بْنُ عُثْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنْ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، - يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي خَالِدٍ - عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ سَمُرَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ يَقُولُ ‏"‏ لاَ يَزَالُ هَذَا الدِّينُ قَائِمًا حَتَّى يَكُونَ عَلَيْكُمُ اثْنَا عَشَرَ خَلِيفَةً كُلُّهُمْ تَجْتَمِعُ عَلَيْهِ الأُمَّةُ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ فَسَمِعْتُ كَلاَمًا مِنَ النَّبِيِّ لَمْ أَفْهَمْهُ قُلْتُ لأَبِي مَا يَقُولُ قَالَ ‏"‏ كُلُّهُمْ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ
