No. 2073;Majmaa az-Zawaaed , vol. 5, pg. 191, Chapter, ‘The Caliphs are Twelve.’ I say:Tabaraani in his al-Mo’jam al-Kabeer, vol. 2, has brought this tradition ofJaabir from thirty-seven chain of narrators. It is clear thatJaabir has heard the tradition concerning the twelve caliphs on more than one occasion from the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w.a .), like the eve of the stoning of Al-Aslami , in the last pilgrimage atArafaah , when he went to the Prophet (s.a.w.a .)alongwith his father and when he heard the Prophet (s.a.w.a .) delivering a sermon in the mosque. It is for the readers to refer and deliberate on this subject.

I say: This tradition is supported by the traditions brought by Suyuti in Al-Durr Al-Manthoor in his exegesis of the Holy Quran under the verse, “You are only a warner and foreery nation there is a guide.” (SurahRa’d (13): verse 7) When this verse was revealed the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a .) placed his hand on his chest and declared, “I am the warner.” And pointed towards the shoulder of Ali (a.s. ) and remarked, “O Ali! You are theguide, through you the guided ones will receive guidance after me.” (Al-Durr Al-Manthoor , vol. 4, pg. 45). Similar quotes have been recorded by IbnJurair Tabari (in his exegesis, vol. 13, pg. 108 under the same verse), IbnMurduwayh , AbuNoaim in Al-Ma’refah , Al-Dailami , IbnAsaaker and IbnNajjaar .
