The ''Quraish'' (قريش‎ Qurayš) were Arabs and Muhammad (himself being from the Quraish tribe) was speaking of the rulers who would rise up after him to rule over the Islamic world. When Muhammad says "will be" the connotation to his followers was and still is "should be". Moreover, this hadith has contributed a lot to the [[Shi'ite]]-[[Sunni]] rift in the Muslim world.
