According to shia scholarly consensus they do not believe in caliphate. They believe in a different concept of leadership referred to as [[imamate]]. However, shias do consider the caliphate of Ali and Hassan to be valid while considering them as Imams in contrast to caliphs which is predominantly a sunni-muslim term. |

These are 12 Khalifas who are successors of Prophet Muhammad (sawaw). Shias believe in these 12 Khalifas. Sunnis don't have 12 Khalifas. They have only 4 Rightly guided Khalifa. |

Prophet Muhammad is son of Ishmael. These 12 Khalifas are from House hold of Prophet Muhammad. So they are the ones mentioned in Genesis 17:20. |

According to some sunni sources they have more than 40 Khalifas but only 4 are Rightly guided. So the Prophecy of Genesis 17:20 is not for sunnis. |

The hadith of the twelve successors, or twelve caliphs (Arabic: حديث الاثني عشر خليفة, romanized: ḥadīth al-ithnā ‘ashar khalīfah) is an Islamic prophecy, attributed to Muhammad. It is perhaps most popular among Twelver Shiites, as they affirm the prophecy was fulfilled by the Twelve Imams. The hadith (classified as Sahih) is widely accepted by all muslim groups (religious). According to the prophecy there will reign twelve caliphs—presumably the first being crowned upon the Prophet's death—and after which the Caliphate would cease to exist and mark the beginning of the judgement day or armagedon. It is stated that all twelve caliphs will be from the tribe of Quraysh.
Another interpretation is that the prophecy was fulfilled by the Rashidun Caliphs.[1] Some commentators, such as Ibn Kathir and Ibn Taymiyya, link this hadith with the biblical account of Moses and his twelve deputies.[2][3][4][5]
Sunni view
Imam Muslim on Sahih Muslim wrote: Rasulullah s.a.w said: "This religion (Islam) will remain standing until twelve caliph, which all of them is from Quraysh, rule over you." (Sahih Muslim)
Imam Abu Dawud on Shahih Abi Dawud wrote: Masyruq said: We sits with Abdullah bin Mas'ud, learn Al-Qur'an from him. Someone asks to him: Do you asks to Rasulullah s.a.w about how many caliph that will rule this umat? Ibnu Mas'ud answers: Of course we asks this thing to Rasulullah s.a.w and he answers: "Twelve, like the amount of the leaders of Banu Israel." (Shahih Al-Bukhari)
Biblical Properchy
"And for Ishmael, I heard his prayer; Behold, I will bless him and make him father of twelve descendants, twelfth King will be born and I will be born and I will make him a great nation." Genesis 17:20
The above mentioned prophecy is taken from translated versions of the bible which may not exactly represent the actual words of Eisa (Jesus).
Fihr, which is the founder of Quraish tribe, is a descendant of Prophert Ishmael.
Fihr (Quraish) bin Malik bin Nadhr bin Kinanah bin Khuzayma bin Mudrikah bin Ilyas bin Mudhar bin Nizar bin Ma'ad bin Adnan bin Udad bin al-Muqawwam bin Nahur bin Tayrah bin Ya'rub bin Yasyjub bin Nabit bin Ishmael bin Abraham.
List of Caliphs
- Ali ibn Abi Talib (as)
- Hassan ibn Ali (as)
- Hussein ibn Ali (as)
- Ali ibn Hussein (as)
- Muhammad al Baqir (as)
- Jafar al Sadiq (as)
- Musa ibn Jafar (as)
- Ali ibn Musa (as)
- Muhammad ibn Ali (as)
- Ali ibn Muhammad (as)
- Hassan al askari (as)

These are 12 Khalifas who are successors of Prophet Muhammad (sawaw). Shias believe in these 12 Khalifas. Sunnis don't have 12 Khalifas. They have only 4 Rightly guided Khalifa.
Prophet Muhammad is son of Ishmael. These 12 Khalifas are from House hold of Prophet Muhammad. So they are the ones mentioned in Genesis 17:20.
According to some sunni sources they have more than 40 Khalifas but only 4 are Rightly guided. So the Prophecy of Genesis 17:20 is not for sunnis.
