I am looking for the Hadith that talk about the Ummat passing several phases, like Naboowat, Khilaafat, Monarchy, Slavery, and then finally Khilaafat.

Answer

We have managed to trace the following Hadith only:

Sayyiduna Safeena (Radhiallaahu Anhu) reports that Rasulullah (Sallallaahu Alayhi Wasallam) said, 'The Khilaafat will last for 30 years, and all of them will be kings. The kings and Khalifahs will all add up to 12 (in this 30 year period)' (Sahih ibn Hoibban vol.15 pg.35)

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
