Ark of the Covenant in Islam

 

Weaponized Extraterrestrial Technology of the Prophets

Selected Statements of the Twelve Imams About the Ark of the Covenant

The Ark containing the relics and belongings of the Messenger of Allah salutations be upon him, is like the Ark among the Israelites – it establishes power for its possessor and can be weaponized.

Moving ‘Clouds’

At-Tirmidi and Ibn Abi Shaybah reported in Al-Musannaf, that a cloud constantly shaded the Prophet sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam during his travel to the Levant with his uncle Abu Talib. This hadith is classified as Sahih (authentic).

This is mentioned many times in the books of biography of the Prophet sallallahu `alayhi wa sallam (may Allah exalt his mention).

Al-Qadhi Iyadh said in Kitab Ash-Shifa while speaking about the miracles of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam (may Allah exalt his mention): “Among his miracles is that Allah shaded him with a cloud during his journey. A narration reads that Khadijah and her female friends saw him when he returned from his journey while two angels were shading him. She mentioned this to Maysarah (her young servant), and he informed her that he had seen that ever since he set out in travel with the Prophet sallallahualayhi wa sallam (may Allah exalt his mention). It was also reported that Halima [the wet-nurse of the Prophet] saw a cloud shading him when he was with her. This was reported from the brother.”

“…Another hadith states: ‘A bestial vessel is reserved for your Master and Friend [the Mahdi]. What is the meaning of ‘bestial vessel’? A cloud that is loud as thunder and fast as lightning, upon which he rides. Be aware that soon he will [appear] riding on clouds, and ascending to seven heavens and seven lands.’ This does not refer to an ordinary cloud, as clouds are not vessels that can be sailed upon in outer space. [Clouds] travel near the atmosphere that is close to the earth, and they cannot attain great altitudes. Therefore, the meaning here is an extraordinary and very swift vessel that looks like a dense cloud in the sky; its sound is that of thunder and its power and speed is that of lightning. When it moves, it slashes the heart of the sky with extraordinary force, and in this way it can advance to any point in the firmament. Therefore, this is a super-modern vessel, and there is none like it today. It is like a spaceship and like other swift and amazing space vessels that are found [only] in stories today, but nobody knows how close [these vessels] come to truth and reality. Maybe it will be like [a spaceship] but in any case it is not a spaceship…Therefore, it is clear that during the global revolution of the Mahdi… there will be an unprecedented expansion of industry and technology…” [Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi, August 26th, 2016]

Extraterrestrial ‘Whip’

“Remember when you [O Muhammad, may Allah exalt his mention] were saying to the Believers, ‘Is it not enough for you that your Lord will reinforce you with 3000 angels sent down?’ / Of course [it is enough for you]! [In fact,] if you all are steadfast and God-fearing, and they rush in attack towards you, then your Lord will reinforce you with 5000 angels bearing distinguished markings.” [Quran 3:124-125]

“Remember when you all cried out for help from your Lord, and so you were answered thus: “Indeed, I will reinforce you with a thousand angels, rank after rank.” [Quran 8:9]

Abu Zumail said that the hadith was narrated to him by Ibn ‘Abbas who said: “While on that day a Muslim was chasing an ingrate who was going ahead of him, he heard over him’ the swishing of the whip and the voice of the rider saying: Go ahead, Haizi’m! He glanced at the ingrate who had (now) fallen down on his back. When he looked at him (carefully he found that) there was a scar on his nose and his face was torn as if it had been lashed with a whip, and had turned green with its poison. An Ansari came to the Messenger of Allah (may Allah exalt his mention) and related this (event) to him. He said: “‏ صَدَقْتَ ذَلِكَ مِنْ مَدَدِ السَّمَاءِ الثَّالِثَةِ ‏‏”, You have told the truth. This was the help from the third heaven…” [Sahih Muslim, Hadith #4360]

The Ark and Armaments

Imam Muhammad al-Baqir is reported to have said, “The armaments of the Prophets are kept with us. They are well protected. Even if they would be placed under the protection of the worst among creation, he would become good…” [al-Kafi]

Imam Muhammad al-Baqir narrated, “When the Messenger of Allah passed away, ‘Ali inherited his armaments and whatever was therein (the Ark), then they were transferred to Imam al-Hassan, then to Imam al-Husayn. However, then we became anxious about losing them, so we then decided to leave them in trust of ’Umm Salama. Afterwards, Imam ‘Ali ibn al-Husayn took custody (of the Ark) containing the armaments.” The narrator then said, “Then it is true that they were transferred to your father, and then they ended up to you.” [al-Kafi]

Ring of Solomon, Extraterrestrial ‘Staff’ of Moses

Among the recorded statements of the Twelve Imams, the following were made about the Ark of the Covenant and or its contents:

It is narrated from Imam Muhammad al-Baqir: “The Prince of the Believers (‘Ali ibn Abi Talib) once came out during the night after the ‘Isha prayer saying , ‘Ham hama, ham ham’, it is a dark night. The Imam has come out to you and he is wearing the Shirt of Adam. He is wearing the Ring of Solomon, and in his hands he has the Staff of Moses.” [al-Kafi]

Narrated Imam Muhammad al-Baqir: “The Staff of Moses originally belonged to Adam. It was eventually passed down to Shu’ayb (Jethro) then Shu’ayb passed it to Moses ibn ‘Imran. Now it is with us. I have just, moments before, seen it. It is green in color just as if it were (the colour of) a branch freshly picked from its tree. It speaks if it is induced to do so. It is prepared for the one who will rise to establish the Divine Kingdom on earth. He will use it in the same way as Moses had done. It frightens and devours false things made to trick people and it accomplishes whatever commands it receives. If it would proceed for a task it devours the treacherous materials. It opens into two; one towards earth and the other towards the sky with an opening of forty yards in between and devours the deceptive materials.” [al-Kafi]

Extraterrestrial Cold and Fire Resistant Suit of Abraham

Imam Muhammad al-Baqir said: “Do you know what the Shirt of Joseph is?”…”When the fire was set for Abraham, Gabriel brought him a suit from Paradise (space) and made him wear it. With that suit, nothing of the cold or heat could harm him. When Abraham was about to pass away, he placed it in a covering and handed it down to Isaac who in turn handed it down to Jacob. When Joseph was born, it was handed down to him, and he had it on his shoulder until the event of the things that happened to this Shirt. When Joseph took it out of its covering in Egypt, Jacob felt its fragrance as he said, “I smell Joseph’s scent. I hope that you will not accuse me of senility” (12:94). It was the same Shirt that been sent from Paradise.” I (the narrator) then said, “May Allah take my soul in service for your cause, to whom did that Shirt go thereafter?” The Imam said, “It went to its (people) owner.” Then he said, “Every prophet who inherited knowledge or other things, they were all eventually passed down from the Messenger of Allah salutations be upon him, to the House of Muhammad.” [al-Kafi]

Al-Abraqa: Extraterrestrial Luminous Belt

Narrated Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq: “When the Messenger of Allah, salutations be upon him, was about to leave this world, he called al-Abbas ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib and Amir al-Mu’minin ‘Ali ibn Abi Talib to his private chamber…He asked ‘Ali, “O ‘Ali, brother of Muhammad, will you pay off the liabilities of Muhammad, pay off his debt and take possession of his legacy?” He said, “Yes, May Allah take my soul and the soul of my parents in service for your cause, it is my responsibility and in my favor”. ‘Ali then said, “I gazed at the Messenger of Allah, salutations be upon him, and saw him take off his ring from his noble finger and he ordered me to wear this ring in his life time. I looked at the ring when wearing it on my finger, and was pleased as I wished to have it most out of all his belongings.” The Prophet then called for Bilal, and audibly told him, “Bring me my Helmet, the Coat of Arms, the Flag, the Shirt, the Dhul Fiqar (the Sword), al-Sahab (the Turban), al-Burd (the Cloth), al-Abraqa (the Belt) and the Staff.” ‘Ali then said, “I had never before seen this Belt of the Messenger of Allah, salutations be upon him. When it was brought by Bilal before us, it was so bright it could cause blindness. It was not from this world, but of the Belts of Paradise (from space).” He (the Messenger of Allah) then said, “O ‘Ali, Gabriel brought this for me and told me, “O Muhammad, place it in the ring of the Coat of Arms and use it as a belt around your midsection….” [al-Kafi]

Hakim al-Tirmidhi narrates from ‘Abd al-Rahman ibn Qays al-Za’farani from ‘Abd al-Malik ibn ‘Abd Allah ibn al-Walid from Zukran that no shadow could be seen for the Prophet (Allah bless him and give him peace) in sunlight nor [could it be seen] in moonlight.”

Al-Suyuti said: “Ibn Saba’ says ‘From his specialties (khasa’is) [and distinguishing characteristics] is that his shadow would not fall upon the earth and that he (Allah bless him and give him peace) was (always surrounded with) light (nur). When he would walk in sunlight or moonlight, no shadow would be visible (due to the brightness of his light).” (Khasa’is; 1/71)

Mother of the Believers ‘A‘isha b. Abi Bakr al-Siddiq states: “One night I was busy sewing when I accidentally dropped my needle, and due to the darkness of the night was unable to find it (even with the help of my lamp). Thereafter the Messenger of Allah entered my chamber, and the light which emanated from him illuminated the entire chamber, and I was then able to find my needle”. (Al Khasil Kubra-Suyuti)

‘A‘isha also related once while the Messenger of Allah was present in her house at night, his room became completely illuminated with a bright light which then disappeared. This was followed by a second more powerful light which completely illuminated the entire room so that had she wished to pick up mustard seeds from the floor by this light, she could have. (Abu Nu’aym in Hilia)

In the famous description of Hind ibn Abi Hala, “He was dignified and awe inspiring, radiant like the radiance of the moon on the night it is full…” (Tirmidhi in Shama’il, Bayhaqi, Tabarani, and Ibn Sa’d)

Unidentified ‘Flashing’ Light from the Sky

Abū Hurayra related how they were once praying the night prayer of ‘Isha’ with the Prophet, may Allah’s blessings and peace be upon him, and how the Prophet’s two grandsons, Hasan and Husayn climbed onto his back when he went into prostration. When he was done, he placed one of them on his right and the other on his left. Abu Hurayra asked him, “Shall I take them to their mother?” he replied, “No”. Then a flashing light appeared from the sky, at which he said, “go to your mother.” The light remained until they reached their house. (Ahmad, Hakim, and Bazar)

Extraterrestrial Forcefield Generating ‘Device’

Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq said: “The Tablets of Moses are with us. The Staff of Moses is with us. We are the heirs of the prophets.” [al-Kafi]

Imam Ja’far al-Sadiq said: “…With me is the Sword of the Messenger of Allah, prayers and salutations be upon him, with me is the Flag of the Messenger of Allah, his Coat of Arms, his Pennon, and his Helmet. If they are truthful, let them describe the Coat of Arms of the Messenger of Allah? With me is the Flag of the Messenger of Allah, the Victorious. With me is the Staff of Moses. With me is the Ring of Solomon, son of David. With me is Tray of Moses, used for offerings. With me is the Greatest Name of God Almighty that the Messenger of Allah would place between the Muslims and the Ingrates during war, so no arrow from the Ingrates would reach the Muslims. With me is the (object similar to the)…object that the Angels carried, “As the evidence of his kingship, he will bring to you the Ark of the Covenant, which will be a security to you from your Lord, and relics of the House of Moses and the House Aaron. It will be carried by the Angels. This is the evidence for you if you have faith” (2:248). The Ark with us is as the Ark among the Israelites. The family at whose front-door the Ark arrived would receive Prophethood. To whomever of us the Arms are transferred, he receives Imamate. My father wore the Coats of Arms of the Messenger of Allah. It would reach the earth, and leave marks. I wore it also, and it reached the earth and sometimes it would not. When the Qaim from us who will rise to establish heavenly authority on earth will come, it will fit him perfectly, if Allah would so will.” [al-Kafi]

Extraterrestrial Metallic Sword

Imam ‘Ali ibn Musa al-Rida was asked about al-Dhul Fiqar, the sword of the Messenger of Allah, salutations be upon him, to wherefrom it came. The Imam said, “Gabriel came down to earth with it from the heavens (space). It is decorated with gold, and it is with me now.” [al-Kafi]
