In a televised appearance marking the 100th day of the Israeli war on Gaza, Abu Obeida, the military spokesperson for the Izz ad-Din Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, provided updates, according to Hamas, into the ongoing conflict.
During his speech, Abu Obeida discussed the destruction of tanks by the Hamas resistance, the number of military operations conducted and the organization’s claim of manufacturing its own weapons for sustained resistance.
Of particular importance was Abu Obeida’s reference to the motives behind the Hamas attack on Israel, where he spoke about the perceived aggression against Al-Quds and Al-Aqsa. He mentioned the prophetic act of the “bringing of red cows,” linking it to what he termed a “detestable religious myth designed for aggression.” This connection between the red heifers and Third Temple is viewed as a threat to the Arab identity and religious sites, specifically Al-Aqsa.

“We look back 100 days to remember the educated, the complicit and the incapacitated among the world powers governed by the law of the jungle, reminding them of an aggression that reached its peak against our path (Al-Quds) and Al-Aqsa, with the start of its actual temporal and spatial division, and the ‘bringing of red cows’ as an application of a detestable religious myth designed for aggression against the feelings of an entire nation in the heart of its Arab identity, and the path of its prophet (the Night Journey) and ascension to heaven,” read Abu Obeida.
The term “Al Aqsa flood” used by Abu Obeida in reference to the Oct. 7 attack pertains to the Palestinian perspective on the significance of the gray-domed mosque on the Temple Mount. The speech emphasized the historical and religious context, including the Umayyad Caliph’s myth about Muhammad’s miraculous journey to the Temple Mount.
Abu Obeida expressed a commitment to rallying support for Al-Aqsa and the path of the prophet, urging free people of the nation to rise against perceived Zionist aggression and called on Muslims worldwide to join the war.
“We will not tire or falter in calling all the free people of the nation to rise to support their Aqsa and the path of their prophet, which the criminal Zionists are practically advancing towards destroying and establishing their temple. This is what we have chosen with our blood in Gaza for 100 days and for which the epic of Oct. 7th was about,” he continues.
“We believe that it is our jihadist and religious duty to inform the two billion Muslims in the world that the Zionist enemy, over the course of 100 days, destroyed most of the mosques in the Gaza Strip, desecrated, burned and bulldozed those reached by its vehicles on the ground, and stopped the call to prayer and praying in a clear religious war, completing what the religious Zionist gangs started in their war on Al-Aqsa Mosque. This is an ominous sign and destruction for these Nazi killers, as they cannot wage a war against God, and this is affirmed by the text of the Torah, the Bible and the Quran.”
Red Heifers, Their Significance and the Temple
The Bible, particularly in the Old Testament, addresses the significance of red heifers in the context of purification rituals for the construction and consecration of the Temple. Numbers 19 provides instructions for using the ashes of a red heifer to purify those who come in contact with death.
As Charisma News previously reported, a red heifer, a significant symbol in Bible prophecy, has been born in Israel.
The Temple Institute, an organization dedicated to preparations for the Third Temple in Jerusalem, made the groundbreaking announcement on YouTube, heralding the calf’s arrival as a pivotal moment in the fulfillment of ancient Bible prophecies.
The birth of this red heifer, a female calf, holds profound spiritual implications, as it is believed to bring the promise of reinstating biblical purity to the world. In both Christianity and Judaism, the red heifer has played a prominent role in eschatological narratives, specifically in relation to the “end of times.”
The Temple was the dwelling place of God among His people, Israel. The construction and sanctification of the Temple were central to Jewish religious practices in biblical times.
However, Muslims around the world view the establishment of a Third Temple as a direct threat to the Al Aqsa Mosque. With Hamas claiming the red heifers were a target of the Oct. 7 massacre, it shows the prophetic clock is ticking closer and closer to the biblical prophecies in the Word of God being fulfilled.
