Ark of the Covenant led the Jews out of Egypt, holds the ten commandments, maybe a rod and some manna.
The Ark was also carried before the Jews into battle and is reputed to have assured their success.
Mystery has it that the Ark is returned to The Temple before the End of Days.
We're just really talking about a whole other political agenda here. The Ark, if the real one or even believed by Christians, Jews, and Muslims to be the real deal is the spark.
The Qur’an (2:248) states the following: “Their prophet said to them, “The sign of his kingship is that the Ark (of the Covenant) will come to you, containing serenity from your Lord and certain relics left by the families of Musa (Moses) and Harun (Aaron). It will be borne by angels. There is a sign for you in that if you believe.”
You said — Ark of the Covenant led the Jews out of Egypt, holds the ten commandments, maybe a rod and some manna.

Well, to get into the details of the matter, the Ark of the Covenant didn’t lead the Jews out of Egypt. The Ark of the Covenant was built a considerable length of time after the Egyptians were all drowned and gone (that were chasing them). The Ark of the Convenant was built later.

The trouble is, it didn’t always “work” for them that way, all the time. That’s because it wasn’t the Ark of the Covenant that was insuring their win in the battle but rather, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who was. And sometimes, He didn’t, and thus, the “Ark of the Covenant” was shown to not guarantee their win... :-)

And lastly you said — Mystery has it that the Ark is returned to The Temple before the End of Days.

Ummm..., that would be better stated as “Speculation has it that the Ark is returned to the Temple before the End of Days”... LOL...
I don’t find that in the Bible anywhere. It may be and then again it may not be. We’re not told and it’s pure speculation (as opposed to other things in the Bible where we are told of some things that will happen at the last of the End Days.
By the way, we’ve been in the “End Days” since the time of Pentecost, when Peter gave his sermon to the Jews. In other words, the “End Days” has been about 2,000 years long, (almost) thus far...
And that’s why it’s more accurately described as the last of the End Days, rather than the End Days (because your entire life has been lived in the End Days, thus far...).
And for the rest of you on the ping, here is more “Ark of the Covenant” stuff... :-)
you sure about that?
