Is a non-Qurayshi appointed to general authority by way of choice?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you. Is a non-Qurayshi appointed to general authority by way of choice?

The Shaykh : No, no, he is not appointed. Yes, but if he is forced and takes authority by the sword and force, then it is not permissible to oppose him.

The questioner : Is there evidence from the Book and the Sunnah for this?

The Shaykh : Regarding rebellion against the Imam.

The questioner : No, no, is it that a non-Qurayshi is not appointed?

The Shaykh : As long as the matter is still with Quraysh.

The questioner : If there is no one from Quraysh.

The Shaykh : The Arabs cannot be humiliated by a person, because "Qurayshi" means from the Arabs, and a non-Qurayshi is not from the Arabs, so they cannot be humiliated.

The questioner : The reason is that people do not agree on a non-Qurayshi.

The Shaykh : This is what people submit to now.
