12-27 Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Ishaq al-Qazi narrated that Abu Ya’la quoted Ali ibn al-Ja’ed, on the authority of Zahir, on the authority of Zyad ibn Khaysamat, on the authority of Al-Aswad ibn Sa’id al-Hamedany that he had heard Jabir ibn Samurah say, “
I heard God’s Prophet (MGB) say, ‘There will be twelve Leaders after me. They are all from the Quraysh.”When the Prophet (MGB) returned home, Jabir ibn Samurah went to see him (MGB) in private and asked, “What will happen after them?” The Prophet (MGB) replied, “Then there will be chaos.”
12-27 حدثنا أحمد بن محمد بن إسحاق القاضي قال: حدثنا أبو يعلى قال: حدثنا علي بن الجعد قال: حدثنا زهير، عن زياد بن خيثمة، عن الاسود بن سعيد الهمداني قال
سمعت جابر بن سمرة يقول: سمعت رسول الله صلى الله عليه وآله يقول: يكون بعدي اثنا عشر خليفة كلهم من قريش، فلما رجع إلى منزله أتيته فيما بيني وبينه، وقلت: ثم يكون ماذا؟ قال: ثم يكون الهرج
