Hadith of Fatima tablet

This hadith specifically names twelve Imams as successors to Muhammad, prophet of Islam.

[2] Jabir took part in eighteen campaigns headed by the prophet and fought in the Battle of Siffin led by Ali.

[2][3] In Kitab al-Kafi, Jabir narrates that he once saw Fatima with a tablet listing the names of those with divine authority, which he counted to be twelve.

This is a letter from Allah, the most Honourable, the most Knowledgeable, which was sent with the guardian spirit to Muhammad, the last of the messengers.

Ali, the beauty of the worshippers, will remain from Husayn, and then (it will be) Muhammad, the one who rips open My Knowledge, the one who will invite (people) to My path through the right methods.

Then Ali, the pleasant, will be killed by a Kafir demon, and he will be buried in the city that was built by the righteous slave, next to the worst of Allah’s creation.
