Barah Khulafa — Bukhari 7222 aur Muslim 1821: "Sab ke Sab Quraysh Se"

Shor Mein Aadha Suna Hua Jumla

Manzar wahi hai jo khud rawi ne bayan kiya. Nabi Kareem (sallallahu alaihi wasallam) ke gird majma hai; sunne walon mein naujawan Jabir bin Samura apne walid ke sath khare hain. Nabi apne baad aane wale daur ki khabar de rahe hain — hukmaranon ki, aur ek adad ki: barah. Phir aap ne ek aur baat farmayi, magar majme mein shor utha aur Jabir woh alfaz na sun sake. Unhon ne walid se poocha: aap ne kya farmaya? Walid ne chhoota hua tukra bata diya: "Sab ke sab Quraysh se."

Yahi aadha suna hua jumla Ahl-e-Sunnat ki do motabar tareen kitabon — Sahih Bukhari aur Sahih Muslim — mein mehfooz hai, aur har bara maktab tasleem karta hai ke Nabi ne barah ka zikr farmaya. Chaudah sadiyon mein jis baat par ittefaq na ho saka woh yeh hai ke yeh barah kaun hain. Sunni shareheen ne fehrist par fehrist banayi, aur baaz jaleel-ul-qadr ulama ne apne qalam se likh diya ke ginti nahin baithti. Shia Islam ne ek hi fehrist di, band aur mukammal: Barah Imam. Dono satoonon ke beech ek mukhtasar si hadith khari hai.
