we find this in tirmidhi

رقم الحديث: 2157

حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا سُرَيْجُ بْنُ النُّعْمَانِ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَشْرَجُ بْنُ نُبَاتَةَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُمْهَانَ ، قَالَ :

حَدَّثَنِي سَفِينَةُ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : ” الْخِلَافَةُ فِي أُمَّتِي ثَلَاثُونَ سَنَةً ثُمَّ مُلْكٌ بَعْدَ

ذَلِكَ ” ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي سَفِينَةُ : أَمْسِكْ خِلَافَةَ أَبِي بَكْرٍ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ : وَخِلَافَةَ عُمَرَ ، وَخِلَافَةَ عُثْمَانَ ، ثُمَّ قَالَ لِي :

أَمْسِكْ خِلَافَةَ عَلِيٍّ ، قَالَ : فَوَجَدْنَاهَا ثَلَاثِينَ سَنَةً ، قَالَ سَعِيدٌ : فَقُلْتُ لَهُ : إِنَّ بَنِي أُمَيَّةَ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّ الْخِلَافَةَ

فِيهِمْ ، قَالَ : كَذَبُوا بَنُو الزَّرْقَاءِ بَلْ هُمْ مُلُوكٌ مِنْ شَرِّ الْمُلُوكِ ، قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى : وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عُمَرَ ، وَعَلِيٍّ ،

قَالَا : لَمْ يَعْهَدِ النَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي الْخِلَافَةِ شَيْئًا ، وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ ، قَدْ رَوَاهُ غَيْرُ وَاحِدٍ ، عَنْ

سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُمْهَانَ ، وَلَا نَعْرِفُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ حَدِيثِ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُمْهَانَ

TRANSLATION

saeed bin jehman narrated from safina that he said that holy prophet asws said that caliphate will remain for 30 years, and then there will be kingship. then safina told me: so abu bakr got caliphate, and then umar got caliphate, and then uthman got caliphate; and then he told me; ali got caliphate and then the 30 years completed

saeed said that i said to him: bani umayya presume that they have got caliphate

safina said: liars, these banu zarqa, they are kings from evil kings

now, if u see the thing which is most important in this hadeeth is that it has been termed hasan

وَهَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ

slap on the face of nasibis by albani, he has included this hadeeth in his sahih tirmidi, vol 2, page 486, book of fitn, chapter 48, hadeeth 2226.

this article should be read along with similar articles where we see that it was a dispute if mawia should be called a caliph or a ruler, and we see that it was said that SUNNAH is to call him RULER, and not caliph

and we know that there are authentic narrations where we see that rule of bani umayya dishearten holy prophet asws when he saw that in dream, and that bani umayya have been termed cursed lineage
