"After Liberating Syria, Al-Quds (Jerusalem) Is Next"
On December 8, 2024, the jihadi preacher posted photos on his Telegram account showing handwritten letters addressing the mujahideen in Syria. The letters, and Al-Qa'qa' himself, urged them to expand the joy of victory by "marching" to the Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem. The photos showed the mosque in the background.[1]
In the past, Al-Qa'qa' had initiated social media campaigns asking Muslims around the world to show support for jihadi factions in Syria by sending him photos with messages of support.
On December 13, Al-Qa'qa' shared a post in which he prayed to Allah to enable him to perform jihad to Al-Quds and extend support to Gazans. He wrote:
"Oh Allah, a second migration in which we prostrate on the thresholds of Al-Aqsa Mosque, as conquerors and glorifiers [of Allah]."[2]
Among the images he shared were photos showing him wearing a military uniform and posing with jihadi fighters and residents in Hama and Damascus.[3]
On December 15, Al-Qa'qa' published a post in which he described the HTS-led military campaign against the Al-Assad's regime as the "battle of liberating Syria." He credited it for "overthrowing" the Baath Party and the Assad family, and for putting an end to Iran's influence in Syria.[4]
"The Syrian Revolution Will Expand To Other Countries"
Accusing Egypt, the UAE, Jordan, and Iraq of conspiring against the HTS-backed transitional government in Syria, the jihadi preacher described the developments as the "Syrian revolution."[5]
"Egypt, the Emirates, Jordan and Iraq are now busy thwarting the success of the Syrian revolution," he claimed, predicting that the spark of this revolution would expand to other countries in the region.
Recalling his travel for the sake of jihad to Syria, the Egyptian Salafi jihadi preacher claimed, in another post, that he had "migrated," along with other Egyptians, to Syria in 2013.
"Advocate For War Against Those Who Are Hostile To Us"
Stressing that he is among jihadis who would advocate for war against those who are hostile to Muslims, he said:
"I am not one of those who pretend to be an advocate of peace, and that we shall be busy with trade, teaching, and work. If that were the case, we would not have migrated [to Syria]. Rather, we are advocates of peace for those who are at peace with us, and advocates of war for those who are hostile to us, and our duty is to support the oppressed," he wrote.
"A 'Flood' In Egypt Is Next"
He further expanded on the idea of exporting the "spark of the Syrian revolution" to other countries, sharing a separate post in which he incited his fellow nationals in Egypt to overthrow the Egyptian President, Abdul Fattah El-Sissi, and to carry out an attack similar to Hamas's October 7, 2023, attack against Israel.
"The beginning of The Flood in Egypt. [We must] capitalize on the anniversary of January 25[6] next month by spreading the idea on media [platforms]. It is the duty of all my Egyptian revolutionary brothers, and every Egyptian expatriate in Sudan, Turkey, and the countries of the world - your time has come, to unite now around the demand that we all agree on: And that is to restore the spirit of the revolution again."[7]
Background
Al-Qa'qa' has been active in fundraising campaigns. On January 19, 2022, the Syria-based Egyptian jihadi preacher shared a poster on Telegram promoting a fundraising campaign under his auspices that was aimed at providing shelter and housing for Syrian orphans and the elderly over the winter.[8]
According to the poster, the campaign was launched by a charity called "Good Partner Team," with the aim of equipping 30 homes for widows, opening a nursing home, and founding an orphanage. The poster also indicated that the campaign was intended to help 170 orphans, 30 widows, and 40 elderly people, and indicated that donations can be made in three forms: "golden share ($500), silver share ($250), and bronze share ($150)."
The poster included a code for cryptocurrency donations (in Tether – USTD) and provided a Telegram channel and a Telegram and WhatsApp phone number for contacting the campaign.
On December 19, 2021, Al-Qa'qa' shared on his Twitter account several tweets with information about the campaign, and provided the Tether wallet address for those who wished to made donations. He posted photos showing 10 houses whose construction had been completed, and highlighted that the project would include "a boarding school to graduate female preachers." He also stated that the project is a personal effort, and is not affiliated with any party.
On August 31, 2021, Al-Qa'qa' published a lengthy post on Telegram in which he paid tribute to Egyptians who migrated to Syria to join the ranks of jihad. He also reminded Syrians that one day, after they attained victory, they would have to repay those Egyptians by supporting them in return.[9]
"One of the mujahideen suggested to me that the names of the Egyptian martyrs who fell on Syrian soil be documented. He suggested writing their names, their birth city, and the place where they met martyrdom. A lot of these [fighters] spilled their blood here [i.e., Syria]," he wrote.
He noted that Egyptians who migrated to Syria for the sake of jihad represented a variety of social segments, including clerics, doctors, commanders, and engineers.
Al-Qa'qa' added that Egyptian "martyrs" who fought in Syria originated from different cities in Egypt, including Cairo, Qena, Asyut, Alexandria, Sues, Menofia, Marsa Matruh, Ash-Sharqia, Gharbia, Mansoura, El-Beheira, Minya, and Sohag.
Photos showing Al-Qa'qa' distributing sweets inside a mosque to celebrate the Taliban's taking over Afghanistan following the U.S. withdrawal were circulated on Telegram on August 15, 2021.[10]
