Angels having two, three, four wings

Verses mentioning the names of Gabriel and Michael

Message bearer Angels

}{

All praise be to Allah, the Fashioner of the heavens and earth, Who

appointed angels as His message bearers, having two, three, four

wings. He adds to His creation whatever He pleases. Verily Allah has

power over everything.

2}{Allah chooses Messengers from among angels and from among

human beings (to convey His command). Allah is All-Hearing, All-Seeing.}{He sends down this spirit (of prophecy) by His command through His

angels on any of His servants whom He wills, (directing them): "Warn

people that there is no god but Me; so hold Me alone in fear."

Some people assigning angels as daughters and partners to Allah

Say to them, "Whoever is enemy to Gabriel, should understand that

he has, by Allah's command, revealed to your heart the Qur'an

which confirms what was revealed before it, and brings Guidance

and glad tidings to the Believers.(If their enmity to Gabriel is due to

this, let them understand that) whoever is enemy to Allah, His

Angels, His Messengers, Gabriel and Michael, Allah is enemy to such

disbelievers." }9}9

The Day when the Spirit (Gabriel) and the angels are ranged row on

row. None shall speak except he whom the Merciful Lord will

permit; and he too will speak what is right. 1}25{

(O people of Makkah), your companion (Mohammad PBUH) is not

mad; he indeed saw the message-bearer (Gabriel) on the clear

horizon.

}}9 They have established a kinship between Allah and the angels; and

the angels know well that these people will be arraigned (as

culprits).

}5}7

They claim that angels, who are Allah's chosen servants, are females.

Did they witness how their body is constituted? Their testimony

shall be written and they shall be called to account. }-}4

What? Has your Lord favoured you with sons and has taken for

Himself daughters from among the angels? You are indeed uttering a

monstrous lie. }}372

So ask their opinion: (Are you convinced) that your Lord should

have daughters and you should have sons?Did We create the angels

as females the while they witnessed? Behold, it is one of their

fabrications that they say : Allah has begotten. They are liars!5}9{

The Reality

Numerous are the angels in the heavens; yet their intercession shall

be of no avail, except in regard to those whom He grants the leave of

intercession and whose plea He is pleased to accept.Those who do

not believe in the Hereafter give angels the names of females,

although they have no knowledge regarding that. They only follow

their conjecture and conjecture can never take the place of the Truth.3}41{ And on the Day when He will muster them all and will ask the

angels: Are they the ones who worshipped you? They will reply:

Glory to You! You are our Protector, not they. Nay, they rather used

to worship the jinn. Most of them believe in them.

}74{ It does not befit a man that Allah should grant him His Book and

sound judgement and prophet-hood, and thereafter he should say to

men: 'Become servants to me apart from Allah.' He would rather

say: 'Become dedicated men of Allah, in accord with the dictates of

the Book you have been teaching and studying. 'He will never enjoin

you to take the angels or Prophets for your lords. Will he enjoin

upon you unbelief when you have submitted yourselves to Allah?

Witness of the angels

They never turn away from Allah's worship; they ratherglorify Him and prostrate themselves before Him.

}}97

Allah Himself bears witness that there is no God but He; and likewise

do the angels and the men possessed of knowledge bear witness in

truth and justice that there is no God but He, the All-Mighty, the All-

Wise.The true religion with Allah is Islam. The People of the Book

adopted many different ways rather than follow the true way of

Islam even after the knowledge of truth had reached them, and this

merely to commit excesses against one another. Let him who refuses

to follow the ordinances and directives of Allah know that Allah is

swift in His reckoning.

}{(Whether people believe or not) Allah bears witness that whatever

He has revealed to you, He has revealed with His knowledge, and the

angels bear witness to it too, though the witness of Allah is sufficient.

The angels near-stationed to your Lord glorify Him night and day,

and never grow weary.

}4{[The angels] who are near to Your Lord, never turn away with

pride from His worship; they rather glorify Him and prostrate

themselves before Him. (Prostration)}74{

All living creatures and all angels in the heavens and on the earth

are in prostration before Allah; and never do they behave in

arrogant defiance.They hold their Lord, Who is above them, in

fear, and do as they are bidden. (Prostration) }2{The Messiah neither did disdain to be a servant of Allah nor do

the angels who are stationed near to Him; and whoever disdains

to serve Him, and waxes arrogant, Allah will certainly muster

them all to Him.

Upon believers descend angels.

}5}5

The thunder celebrates His praise and holiness, and the angels, too,

celebrate His praise for awe of Him. He hurls thunderbolts, striking

with them whom He wills while they are engaged in disputation

concerning Allah. He is Mighty in His contriving.

1}42{

Those who say Allah is our Lord and then remain steadfast, upon

them descend angels (and say): Do not fear nor grieve, and receive

good tidings of Paradise which you were promised. We are your

companions in this world and in the Hereafter. There you shall have

all that you desire and all what you will ask for.This is by way of

hospitality from Him Who is Most Forgiving, Most Merciful.}22{ If you are steadfast and mindful of God, even though the enemy

should suddenly fall upon you, your Lord will help you even with five

thousand marked angels.Allah has reminded you of this only as a

glad tiding to you and so as to let your hearts be at rest. Help can only come from Allah, the All-Mighty, the All-Wise.

}5}13 Believers, remember Allah much and glorify Him morning and

evening. It is He Who lavishes His blessings on you and His angels

invoke blessings on you that He may lead you out of darkness into

light. He is Most Compassionate to the believers.On the Day they

meet Him they will be greeted with: Peace. He has prepared for

them a generous reward.

4}{ The angels that bear the Throne and those that are around to extol

your Lord's glory with His praise, they believe in Him, and ask

forgiveness for the believers, saying: Our Lord! You encompass

everything with Your Mercy and Knowledge. So forgive those that

repent and follow Your Path, and guard them against the

chastisement of Hell. Our Lord, admit them to the everlasting

Gardens You have promised them and those of their fathers and

Mighty, Most Wise;and guard them against all ills. He whom You

guard against ills on that Day, to him You have surely been Most

on earth. Lo, it is Allah, and He alone, Who is Most Forgiving, Most

Merciful.}5}

Allah and His angels bless the Prophet. Believers, invoke blessings

and peace on him.

accursed of Allah and of angels and of all mankind: they will remain

accursed for ever.

Angels are preparing our life's Record Book.2}42{

And there are watchers over you;noble scribes,who know what you do.4}9{Surely We have created man, and We know the promptings of his

heart, and We are nearer to him than even his jugular vein.

Moreover, there are two scribes, one each sitting on the right and

the left, recording everything.He utters not a word, but there is a

vigilant watcher at hand.

4}1{ No sooner than We bestow mercy on a people after hardship has hit

them than they begin to scheme against Our signs. Tell them: 'Allah

is swifter in scheming. Our angels are recording all your intriguing.5}4{Or do they think that We do not hear their secret talks and their

whispering counsels? Yes, indeed We do and Our messengers [i.e.,

angels) are with them, writing.

Angels take souls at the time of death.

Successful believers are welcomed by the angels at the

time of death.

}}12

And He alone holds sway over His servants and sets guardians over

you till death approaches any of you and Our deputed angels take

his soul, neglecting no part of their task.Then all are returned to

Allah, their true protector. Behold, His is the judgement. He is the

swiftest of those who take account. 2}41{ They say: Shall we be created afresh after we have become lost in

the earth? Nay, the fact is that they deny that they will meet their

Lord.Tell them: The angel of death who has been set over you, will

take your souls, and then you shall be brought back to your Lord.

}2{Those whose souls the angels seize while they are in a state of

purity, saying: "Peace be upon you. Enter Paradise as a reward for

your deeds."

Disbelievers are insulted and beaten by the angels at

the time of death.

}}5 If you could but see the wrongdoers in the agonies of death, and the

angels stretching out their hands (saying): 'Yield up your souls!

Today you will be recompensed with the chastisement of

humiliation for the lie you spoke concerning Allah, and for youwaxing proud against His signs.' }9{ The same unbelievers who, when the angels seize them and cause

them to die while they are engaged in wrong-doing, they will proffer

their submission saying: "We were engaged in no evil." (The angels

will answer them): "Surely Allah knows well all that you did".}9{

Then how (will it be) when angels will take their souls at death and

will carry them, striking their faces and backs?That is because they

have followed a way that angered Allah, and have been averse to His

good pleasure. So He reduced all their works to nought.

On the Day of Judgment

}}41

And if you could only see when the angels took away the souls of the

unbelievers, striking them on their faces and backs, saying: 'Taste

the torment of burning.This is your punishment for what your hands

wrought. Allah is not unjust in the least to His creatures.'}{ Who is more unjust then he who invents a falsehood, ascribing it toAllah, or who rejects His revelation as false? Their full portion of

God's Decree shall reach them, until Our deputed angels come to

them to take their souls, and say: 'Where are the deities now, those

whom you invoked besides Allah?' They will say: 'They are all gone

away from us.' And they shall bear witness against themselves that

they were unbelievers.

}} On that Day, a cloud will appear rending the sky and the angels will

be sent down rank after rank.

But no; when the earth is ground to powder,and when your Lord

appears with rows upon rows of angels,and when Hell is brought

near that Day. On that Day will man understand, but of what avail

will that understanding be? 7}{ When the sky will be rent asunder, the grip holding it together

having loosened on that Day, and the angels will stand on the sides,

with eight of them bearing aloft the Throne of your Lord on that

Day. 9}9{The Day when the Spirit and the angels are ranged row on row.

None shall speak except he whom the Merciful Lord will permit; and

he too will speak what is right. }}2 The Day, when they will see the angels, will not be a day of rejoicing

for the criminals ; they will cry out, "May Allah save us!"

Keepers of the Paradise

}-1}45

The Hour of the Great Terror shall not grieve them (the

successful believers), and the angels shall receive them saying:

"This is your Day which you had been promised." 7}{

You shall see the angels surrounding the Throne, glorifying their

Lord with His praise, and judgement will have been made among

them with fairness, and it will be proclaimed: All praise and

thanks be to Allah, the Lord of the whole Universe.

7}5{ And those who eschewed disobeying their Lord shall be driven ingroups to Paradise so that when they arrive there its gates will

have already been thrown open and its keepers shall say to

them: Peace be upon you; you have done well. So enter. Herein

you shall abide.

The Ever-lasting Gardens which they shall enter and so shall the

righteous from among their fathers, and their spouses, and their

offspring. And angels shall enter unto them from every gate, and

say: "Peace be upon you. You merit this reward for your

steadfastness." How excellent is the ultimate abode!

}{ Believers, guard yourselves and your kindred against a Fire whose

fuel is human beings and stones, a Fire held in the charge of fierce

and stern angels who never disobey what He has commanded them,

and always do what they are bidden. 3}1{

By the angels

It is important to believe in angels.

And what do you know what Hell is? It spares nothing; it leaves

nothing intact; it scorches (even) the skin. Over it are nineteen

keepers.We have appointed none but angels as the keepers of the

Fire, and We have not made their number but as a trial for the

unbelievers so that those who have been endowed with the Book

will be convinced and the believers' faith will increase, and neither

those who have been endowed with the Book nor the believers will

fall into any doubt. As for those in whose hearts there is a sickness

as well as the unbelievers, they will say: What did Allah aim at by

this strange parable? Thus does Allah let whomsoever He pleases to

go astray, and directs whomsoever He pleases to the Right Way. And

none knows the armies of your Lord but He. (And Hell has only been

mentioned here) that people may take heed.

}{7

By those (angels) that pluck out from depths,and gently take it away;

and by those that speedily glide along (the cosmos), and vie with the

others (in carrying out their Lord's orders);and then manage the affairs

of the Universe (according to their Lord's commands).

}9{ The Messenger has believed in the Guidance which has been sent

down to him from his Lord, and those who believe in the Messenger


19/19

have also sincerely accepted the same. They all believe in Allah, His

Angels, His Books and Messengers. And they say, "We do not

discriminate against any of His Messengers. We have heard the

Message and submitted to it. Our Lord, we look up to You for

forgiveness, and to You we shall all return." }{

It is no virtue that you turn your faces towards the east or the west, but

virtue is that one should sincerely believe in Allah and the Last Day and

the Angels and the Book and the Prophets and, out of His love, spend of

one's choice wealth for relatives and orphans, for the needy and thewayfarer, for beggars and for the ransom of slaves, and establish the

Salat and pay the Zakat. And the virtuous are those who keep their

pledges when they make them and show fortitude in hardships and

adversity and in the struggle between the Truth and falsehood; such are

the truthful people and such are the pious. }5{ Believers! Believe in Allah and His Messenger and in the Book He has

revealed to His Messenger, and in the Book He revealed before. And

whoever disbelieves in Allah, in His angels, in His Books, in His

Messengers and in the Last Day, has indeed strayed far away.
