WHERE IS THE ARK OF THE COVENANT HIDDEN
The Ark of the Covenant is a treasure chest revealed by our Lord in the Qur'an and which contains the property of the Prophet Moses and the Prophet Aaron. According to Islamic scholars, the most important feature of the Ark is that its whereabouts have been unknown since 587 BC, and it is generally accepted by them that it will be found by the Mahdi, an individual who will appear in the end times. (God knows best.)

The Ark of the Covenant is a subject to which attention is drawn in the hadiths (sayings of our Prophet [peace be upon him]) and in various historical sources, and is also referred to in the Qur'an, revealed by our Lord. The Torah, a divine text that was subsequently corrupted, also contains information about this chest. The Ark, regarded by Islamic scholars as heralding an age when Qur'anic moral values will prevail on earth, is described in these terms in the Qur'an:

Their Prophet said to them, 'The sign of his kingship is that the Ark will come to you, containing serenity from your Lord and certain relics left by the families of Musa and Harun. It will be borne by angels. There is a sign for you in that if you believe. (Qur'an, 2: 248)

The Ark According to Historical Sources

Considerable information about the Ark of the Covenant is to be found in historical sources. It is thought to have been manufactured on the slopes of Mount Sinai after the Children of Israel left Egypt, and contains stone slabs from the Prophet Musa and other items from the Prophet Harun.

According to historical sources, the Ark of the Covenant was carried to Jerusalem when the city was declared to be the capital of the United Jewish Kingdom in the time of the Prophet David, after that of the Prophet Aaron. It was placed in the Temple built by the Prophet Solomon, where it remained until 587 BC. In that year Jerusalem was captured by King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, the monarch who constructed the Hanging Gardens of Babylon. Later on, the belief began to spread that the Ark, which was not seen for the next 500 years by anyone, had not been destroyed but had been buried in a secret location under the Temple by the Levites responsible for its safekeeping. After the destruction of the Temple by the Roman Governor Titus in 70 AD, it was assumed that the secret chamber had been found and that the Ark and the other holy artifacts from the Temple had been carried to Rome.

The Search for the Vanished Ark

The Ark has remained lost since 587 BC up to the present day. In addition, since the Jews believed that the Ark would only reappear after the coming of the Messiah, those who have looked for it down the years have generally been Christians, not Jews. The first recorded "Ark Excavations" on the Temple Mount were carried out by the Knights Templar in the 12th century.

No sign of the Ark was found then or more recently, and the subject has become a focus of interest for researchers in modern times.

The Ark in the Old Testament

Our Almighty Lord, Who created everything with sublime knowledge and wisdom, has revealed the existence of the Ark in both the Qur'an and the Old Testament. It is revealed in the Old Testament that one of the stone tablets was given to the Prophet Moses on Mount Sinai and that these tablets were placed into the Ark on Mount Horeb:

When the Lord finished speaking to Moses on Mount Sinai, He gave him the two tablets of the Testimony, the tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God. (Exodus 31: 18)

There was nothing in the ark except the two tablets that Moses had placed in it at Horeb, where the Lord made a covenant with the Israelites after they came out of Egypt. (2 Chronicles 5: 10)

The Torah also states that the Ark was later carried away by the Prophet David and installed elsewhere by the Prophet Solomon:

David again brought together out of Israel chosen men, thirty thousand in all. He and all his men set out from Baalah of Judah to bring up from there the ark of God, which is called by the Name, the name of the Lord Almighty, who is enthroned between the cherubim that are on the ark. They set the ark of God on a new cart and brought it from the house of Abinadab, which was on the hill. Uzzah and Ahio, sons of Abinadab, were guiding the new cart with the ark of God on it, and Ahio was walking in front of it. (2 Samuel 6: 1-4)

  • @matkosong Would God make Jews so brilliant if He hated them and wanted them killed? Would God do it if Jews were such evil people? I was always told God rewards people for the good they do and not for the bad.

  • @matkosong Do U hear or read of Zionists blowing up schools, churches or Mosques? Do U read of Zionists cutting off heads and hanging woman for wearing wrong outfits? Do U read of Zionists selling 8 year old daughters to be married? I am a Zionist and do not seek to kill or blow up schools. I go to university to become an architect. Dream of building homes for all people.YMCA is an organizations where poor people are helped with food and education, where a poor person go to gym and play tennis.

  • @matkosong If U dont want them killed than U R not a Muslim but people say ideologies, religion and politics just to use few make us what we R. Look at Islam and what it make of people. Terrorism all over the world, so many terrorist Muslim organizations. If it wasn't for Christians and Jews there would be no universities, major hospitals where lives are saved. There R more Muslims than any other religions so why Muslims don't dominate science, medicine? Why there are so very few of U there?
