۞
6-14 Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Ishaq al-Qadhi narrated that Abu Ya’la quoted on the authority of Ali ibn al-Ja’d, on the authority of Zohair, on the authority of Ziyad ibn Khaythama, on the authority of Aswad ibn al-Sa’eed al-Hamadani that he had heard Jabir ibn Samrah say that he had heard God’s Prophet (s) say, “
There will be twelve successors after me. All of them will be from the Quraysh tribe.” When the Prophet (s) returned home, Jabir ibn Samrah went to see him (s)in private and asked, “What will happen after them?” The Prophet (s) replied, “Then there will be chaos.”
14 - حَدَّثَنا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ إِسْحاقَ القاضِي قالَ: حَدَّثَنا أَبُو يَعْلى‏ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا عَلِىُّ بْنُ الجَعْدِ قالَ: حَدَّثَنا زُهَيْرٌ، عَنْ زِيادِ بْنِ خَيْثَمَةَ، عَنْ أَسْوَدَ بْنِ السَّعِيدِ الهَمْدانِيَّ قالَ
سَمِعْتُ جابِرَ بْنَ سَمُرَةَ يَقُولُ: سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ‏ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ يَقُولُ: يَكُونُ بَعْدي اثْنا عَشَر خَلِيفَةً، كُلَّهُم مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ، فَلَمَّا رَجَعَ إِلى مَنْزِلِهِ فَأَتَيْتَهُ فِيما بَيْنِى وَبَيْنَهُ، فَقُلْتُ: ثُمَّ يَكُونُ ماذا؟ قالَ: ثُمَّ يَكُونُ الهَرْجُ.
