I heard the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) say: The affairs of the people will continue to be conducted (well) as long as they are governed by twelve men. Then the Prophet ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) said words which were obscure to me. I asked my father: What did the Messenger of Allah ( ‌صلی ‌اللہ ‌علیہ ‌وسلم ‌) say? He said: All of the (twelve men) will be from the Quraish.
