باب الإِمَارَةِ في قُرَيْشٍ:Chapter: Leadership Belongs to Quraysh
Hadith 2557
أَخْبَرَنَا الْحَكَمُ بْنُ نَافِعٍ، عَنْ شُعَيْبِ بْنِ أَبِي حَمْزَةَ، عَنْ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ: كَانَ مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ يُحَدِّثُ عَنْ مُعَاوِيَةَ أَنَّهُ قَالَ وَهُوَ عِنْدَهُ فِي وَفْدٍ مِنْ قُرَيْشٍ: إِنِّي سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، يَقُولُ: "إِنَّ هَذَا الْأَمْرَ فِي قُرَيْشٍ، لَا يُعَادِيهِمْ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا كَبَّهُ اللَّهُ عَلَى وَجْهِهِ، مَا أَقَامُوا الدِّينَ".
Imam Zuhri, may Allah have mercy on him, said: Muhammad bin Jubair bin Mut’im used to narrate a hadith from Sayyiduna Muawiyah, may Allah be pleased with him, at the time when Muhammad was with the delegation of Quraysh with him. He said: I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, saying: “This caliphate will remain among the Quraysh, and whoever opposes them, Allah Almighty will cast him down on his face as long as they (the Quraysh) remain established upon the religion.”
