English Translation

Abd al-Rahman ibn Mahdi narrated to us from Sufyan, from Abd al-Malik ibn Umayr, from Jabir ibn Samurah, who said: My father and I came to the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, while he was saying: "This matter will continue to be sound until there are twelve leaders." Then he said a word I did not understand, so I said to my father, "What did he say?" He said: "All of them are from Quraysh."
