Why aren’t all the names of the Imams mentioned in Quran

Haj is an indispensable principle of belief-we get the clarification from the Prophet Muhammad (saw).

Salat is an indispensable principle of belief-we get the clarification from the Prophet Muhammad(saw)

Imamate is an indispensable principle of belief-we get the clarification from the Prophet Muhammad(saw) when he says as mentioned in Bukhari there will be 12 caliphates,princes or leaders.So what are their names?Ask any Sunni and he would not know the 12 names, but say that the Mahdi is an Imam,a caliphate,who is from the line of Hussein, and not know that Hussein is also a caliphate and an Imam.

As the Quran mentioned that Imams guide by the command of Allah(swt)because without guidance we would be misguided.

And We made them Imams, guiding (men) by Our Command, and We sent them inspiration to do good deeds, to establish regular prayers, and to practise regular charity; and they constantly served Us (and Us only). Anbya:73

One day We shall call together all human beings with their (respective) Imam: those who are given their record in their right hand will read it (with pleasure), and they will not be dealt with unjustly in the least. Isra:71

And those who pray, “Our Lord! Grant unto us wives and offspring who will be the comfort of our eyes, and give us an Imam to lead the righteous. Furqan:74

So take what the Messenger assigns to you, and deny yourselves that which he withholds from you. And fear Allah; for Allah is strict in Punishment. Hasher:7

Narrated from Hadab son of Khaled AlAzdi narrated from Hamad son of Salma from Samak son of Harb he said:I heard Jaber son of Samra he said:I heard the Messenger of Allah pbuh saying:Islam will remain at glory until 12 caliphates and then he said:A word I did not understand.So I said to my father:What did he say?He said:All of them are from Quraish.
-Saheeh Muslim v.3 p.1453

Asad Al Gaya door 85 p.165
Ammar ibn Yaser heard from the Prophet Muhammad(saw) saying to Ali a.s:”Allah bestowed within you the love of the poor,and you are an Imam for them”

Obey Allah and Obey the Messenger Sura Nisa:59

124,000 Prophets lived and preached on this world yet not all the names of these Prophets were mentioned in the Quran.

The number of Rakaat in our Salaat haven’t been given a number in Quran and Salaat is the pillar of religion that leaving Salat is tantamount to disbelief.

The number of times you have to go around a Kaaba is not given in Quran, and Haj is obligatory in Quran and it is a major tenet of Islam.

The number of times for Sai at Safa Wal Marwa,Muslims travel back and forth seven times during the ritual pilgrimages of Hajj -that is not in Quran.

The number of times you need to throw stones at jamaraat(7 times) in city of Mina, that is not mentioned in Quran.
