- " فضل الله قريشا بسبع خصال: فضلهم بأنهم عبدوا الله عشر سنين لا يعبده إلا قرشي، وفضلهم بأنه نصرهم يوم الفيل وهم مشركون، وفضلهم بأنه نزلت فيهم سورة من القرآن لم يدخل فيهم غيرهم: * (لإيلاف قريش) *، وفضلهم بأن فيهم النبوة، والخلافة، والحجابة، والسقاية ".
It is narrated from Sayyidah Umm Hani (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Allah Almighty has given the Quraysh superiority on account of seven qualities: (1) He gave them superiority because they worshipped Allah Almighty for ten years, only the Quraysh worshipped Him, (2) He gave them superiority because He helped them on the day of the army of the elephants, even though they were polytheists, (3) He gave them superiority because a complete Surah of the Qur'an «لايلاف قريش» was revealed about them, in which no one else is mentioned, He gave them superiority because among them are (4) Prophethood, (5) Caliphate, (6) Protection and supervision, and (7) Giving water to the pilgrims."
