Sayyiduna al-Zubayr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Allah Almighty has favoured Quraysh with seven distinctions. Allah Almighty has favoured them in that they worshipped Allah Almighty for ten years in such a way that at that time no one worshipped Allah Almighty except a Qurashi; Allah Almighty has favoured them in that Allah Almighty helped them against the elephants while they were polytheists; Allah Almighty has favoured them in that a surah of the Qur'an was revealed about them in which no one else besides them is mentioned: 'For the familiarity of Quraysh'; and Allah Almighty has favoured them in that the offices of prophethood, caliphate, hijabah and siqayah are theirs."
Al-Tabarani recorded it in al-Mu'jam al-Awsat; its chain contains narrators who have been declared weak, and Ibn Hibban declared them trustworthy.
