Ahmad ibn Al-Hassan al-Qattan narrated that Abu Bakr Ahmad ibn Muhammad ibn Ubaydah al-Neishaboori quoted on the authority of Abul Qasim Harun ibn Ishaq, i.e. al-Hamdani, on the authority of his uncle Ibrahim ibn Muhammad, on the authority of Ziyad ibn Ilaqa and Abdul Malik ibn Umayr, on the authority of Jabir ibn Samrah, “My father and I were with the Prophet (S). I heard the Prophet (S) say, ‘There will be twelve Leaders after me.’ Then the Prophet (S) lowered his voice. I asked my father, ‘What did he (a.s.) say when he lowered his voice?’ My father said, ‘The Prophet (S) said, ‘They are all from the Quraysh (tribe).’”
