I wanted to know what are the qualifications of an Imam or a Khalifa according to the Quran?

Who should we follow as an Imam or a Khalifa?

This question can answer many of the muslim brothers who say that a particular person was an Imam or a Khalifa.

In that i know the basic things like he should not be a disbeliever, he should follow prophet's sunnah, he should not run away from the battlefields,etc...

I want a list by which we can judge a Khalifa.(whether he was rightly chosen or not) This way both sunnis an shias can come to a conclusion who are the rightly guided khalifas!!!

Thanks in advance for the reply.
