Angels in Islam

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Islam, angels (Arabic: ملاك٬ ملك‎, romanized: malāk; plural: ملائِكة‎, malāʾik/malāʾikah or Persian: فرشته, romanized: ferešte) are believed to be heavenly beings, created from a luminous origin by God.[1][2][3][4] The Quran is the principal source for the Islamic concept of angels,[5] but more extensive features of angels appear in hadith literature, Mi'raj literature, Islamic exegesis, theology, philosophy, and mysticism.[3][4][6]

Generally, belief in angels is one of the core tenets within Islam, as it is one of the six articles of faith.[7][8] Angels are more prominent in Islam compared to Judeo-Christian tradition.[9] The angels differ from other spiritual creatures in their attitude as creatures of virtue, in contrast to evil devils (Arabic: شَيَاطِين, romanized: šayāṭīn or Persian: دیو, romanized: dīv) and ambiguous jinn (Arabic: جِنّ or Persian: پَری, romanized: parī).[10][3][11][12] Despite being considered to be virtuous beings, angels are not necessarily bringers of good news, as per Islamic tradition, angels can perform grim and violent tasks.[13]

Angels are conceptualized as servants of God. As such, they are said to lack passion and bodily desires. If angels can nevertheless fail, is debated in Islam. Contemporary Salafis usually hold the opinion that angels are always obedient and never fail to perform their tasks. In contrast, schools of theology (Kalām) often accept the fallibility of angels. Māturīdites say that the heavenly creatures are tested, and angels may fail such a test, whereupon they are dismissed from their duties. Some Ashʿarite likewise argue that angels can fail. In contrast, most Mu'tazilites, including some Asharis such as al-Razi, consider angels to be infallible. Though some Muslim scholars may accept a certain degree of angelic fallibility, these angels do not rebel on their own part against God but fail to complete their task properly.

In Sufism, angels are related to the nature of reason ('aql). According to Sufi cosmology, they connect the higher realms of the intellect with the lower world of matter. Thus, the human mind is conceptualized to form a connection with the heavenly spheres (malakūt) through such heavenly entities associated with (nūr). In contrast, the devils attempt to disturb the connection by diverging the mind to the lower spheres, thus associated with fire (nār).

Etymology

[edit]

The Quranic word for angel (Arabic: ملك, romanized: malak) derives either from Malaka, meaning "he controlled", due to their power to govern different affairs assigned to them,[14] or from the triliteral root '-l-k, l-'-k or m-l-k with the broad meaning of a "messenger", just as its counterpart in Hebrew (malʾákh). Unlike the Hebrew word, however, the term is used exclusively for heavenly spirits of the divine world, as opposed to human messengers. The Quran refers to both angelic and human messengers as rasul instead.[15]

Characteristics

[edit]

In Islam, angels are heavenly creatures created by God. They are considered older than humans and jinn.[16] Although Muslim authors disagree on the exact nature of angels, they agree that they are autonomous entities with subtle bodies.[17]: 508  Yet, both concepts of angels as anthropomorphic creatures with wings and as abstract forces are acknowledged.[5] Angels play an important role in Muslim everyday life by protecting the believers from evil influences and recording the deeds of humans. They have different duties, including their praise of God, interacting with humans in ordinary life, defending against devils (shayāṭīn) and carrying on natural phenomena.[4] Angelic qualities, just as devilish ones, are assumed to be part of human's nature, the angelic one related to the spirit (ruh) and reason (aql), while the devilish one to egoism.[18] Angels might accompany aspiring saints or advise pious humans. Angels are believed to be attracted to clean and sacred places.

One of the Islamic major characteristic is their lack of bodily desires; they never get tired, do not eat or drink, and have no anger.[19] Various Islamic scholars such as Ibn Kathir, Ibn Taymiyya, Al-Tabari, Fakhr al-Din al-Razi, and Umar Sulaiman Al-Ashqar also quoted that angels do not need to consume food or drinks.[20] They are also described as immortal, unlike jinn.[21] In Islamic traditions, they are described as being created from incorporeal light (Nūr) or fire (Nar).[22][23][a] Ahmad Sirhindi, a 17th-century Indian scholar, has added, that angels can take various shapes.[32] Some scholars assert that such circumstances might interfere with an angels' work and thus impede their duty. For example, dogs, unclean places, or something confusing them might prevent them from entering a home.[33][34][35][36]

Nobility

[edit]

As with other monotheistic religions, angels are characterized by their purity and obedience to God.[37] Groups of modern scholars from Imam Mohammad Ibn Saud Islamic University in Yemen and Mauritania issued fatwa that the angels should be invoked with blessing Islamic honorifics (ʿalayhi as-salāmu), which is applied to human prophets and messengers.[38] These fatwas were based on the ruling from Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya.[38] Medieval Hanafite jurist Ibn Abi al-Izz further emphasising the importance of belief in angels existence in Islamic tenet in his commentary of al-Aqida al-Tahawiyya, whereas he condemn that any doubts of angel existence were regarded as sign of heathen.[39]

Angels usually symbolize virtuous behavior, while humans have the ability to sin, but also to repent. Humans are considered to be able to reach a higher level than angels due to their ability to choose to avoid sin. Angels are free from such inferior urges and therefore superior, a position especially found among Mu'tazilites and some Asharites.[40] A similar opinion was asserted by Hasan al-Basri, who argued that angels are superior to humans and prophets due to their infallibility, a position not shared by either early Sunnis nor Shias.[41] This view is based on the assumption of superiority of pure spirit against body and flesh. Maturidism generally holds that angels' and prophets' superiority and obedience derive from their virtues and insights to God's action, but not as their original purity.[42] The al-Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya, a book of prayers attributed to Ali ibn Husayn Zayn al-Abidin, contains a chapter praying for blessings for the angels.[43]

Purity

[edit]

Angels believed to be engaged in human affairs are closely related to Islamic purity and modesty rituals. Many hadiths, including Muwatta Imam Malik from one of the Kutub al-Sittah, talk about angels being repelled by humans' state of impurity.[44]: 323  It is argued that if driven away by ritual impurity, the Kiraman Katibin, who record people's actions,[44]: 325  and the guardian angel,[44]: 327  will not perform their tasks assigned to the individual. Another hadith specifies, during the state of impurity, bad actions are still written down, but good actions are not. When a person tells a lie, angels nearby are separated from the person from the stench the lie emanates.[44]: 328  Angels also depart from humans when they are naked or are having a bath out of decency, but also curse people who are nude in public.[44]: 328  Ahmad Sirhindi has mentioned that the angels nobility are because their substances are created from luminous light.[32]

Obedience

[edit]

The possibility and degree of angels errability is debated in Islam.[45] Hasan of Basra (d. 728) is often considered one of the first who asserted the doctrine of angelic infallibility. Others accepted the possibility of fallible angels, with most debated topic in Islam were the story about competing angels and humans in the tale of Harut and Marut, who were tested to determine, whether or not, angels would do better than humans under the same circumstances,[46] a tradition opposed by some scholars, such as Ahmad ibn Taimiyya, but still accepted by others, such as Ahmad ibn Hanbal.[47]

In a comment by Gibril Haddad on Qadi Baydawi's defense on angelic fallibility in his Tafsir al-Baydawi it is said that the angels' "obedience is their nature while their disobedience is a burden, while human beings' obedience is a burden and their hankering after lust is their nature."[17]: 546  Since obedience of angels is not discussed when talking about the identity of Iblis, the idea that angels are unable to sin might not have been a universal issue in early Islamic exegetical tradition.[48]

It has been argued that from the traditions of ibn Abbas and Hasan of Basra two different opinions derived; one regarding Iblis as a fallen angel and accepting that angels could sin, the other regarding Iblis as distinct from the angels and rejecting that angels could sin.[48]

Infallible

[edit]

Islamic scholars who reject the concept of the fallen angel, refer to Surah At-Tahrim 66:6 "not disobeying" and Al-Anbiya 21:19 of "not acting arrogant",[49] and in Al-Anbiya 21:27 of "not presumptuous", as support for their view:[50]

[6] O believers! Protect yourselves and your families from a Fire whose fuel is people and stones, overseen by formidable and severe angels, who never disobey whatever Allah orders—always doing as commanded.

To exclude Iblis from the angels, Ibn Taymiyya argues that Surah 2:34 uses an Istithna Munqathi, an Arabic linguistic form in order to exclude a subject from the main grouping. Accordingly, he argues, that the verse is meant to exclude Iblis from being an angel as a species and that Iblis hailed from jinn species instead.[51][52] Azza bint Muhammad ar-Rashid from the Islamic university of Minnesota faculty of Islamic creed; has compiled that several other notable scholars aside from Ibn Kathir who supported the notion that "Iblis was not an angel" were Ibn Hazm, Al-Mawardi, Al-Baghawi, Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani, and Al-Uthaymin.[53][better source needed]

This view were followed by most modern scholars of Salafism, that they rejecting account of fallen angels entirely,[54] and choosing the interpretation of Ibn Kathir in defending Harut and Marut innocence in this case.[55][56][better source needed]

Fakhr al-Din al-Razi is an exception to most mutakallimūn, accept that angels can commit errors. He agrees with the Mu'tazilites and philosophers that angels cannot commit sin. He goes further and includes to the six articles of faith not only belief in angels, but one must also believe in their infallibility.[57]

Fallible

[edit]
The angels Harut and Marut punished by hanging over the well, condemned to teach sorcery. (c. 1703)

Those who support that angels could commit sins or are fallible argue that if angels could not sin, there was no reason to praise them for obedience.[17]: 546  Al-Maturidi (853–944 CE) states that, like humans, the angels were tested[42] and concludes angels have free-will:[58]

By calling the stars adornment of the heavens, we can deduce another meaning: that is, the inhabitants of the heavens themselves are put to the test to see which of them is the best in deeds, exactly as the inhabitants of the earth were put to test by these very adornments, for don't you see that God has said in Sūrat al-Kahf [Q. 18:7], We have made what is on earth an adornment for them, that they be tested which of them is best in deeds. Thus, God in this verse is stating that adornment is there for testing here for testing. (anna'l-zīna li'l-imtihãn).

Asharite scholar al-Baydawi also added that "certain angels are not infallible even if infallibility is prevalent among them — just as certain human beings are infallible but fallibility is prevalent among them."[17]: 545  Similarly al-Anbiya (21:29) stresses out that if an angel were to claim divinity for himself, he would be sentenced to hell, implying that angels might commit such a sin.[42][59] This verse is generally associated with Iblis (Satan), who is generally thought of as an angel in these reports. In response to the reference to Iblis as "one of the jinn" somewhere else in the Quran, an alternative translation reads "became one of the jinn", indicating that took away his angelic qualities.[60] Yet others say that the term does not refer to the (genus of) jinn, but calls Iblis and his angels "al-jinn" due to their origin from jannah.[61] The presence of two fallen angels referred to as Harut and Marut, further hindered their complete absolution from potentially sinning.[17]: 548 [62]

Surah 2:30 portrays the angels arguing with God that the creation of Adam will cause disruption and suffering. The implication of the text is that Iblis does not part ways with God because he disbelieved but because he has a positive, though misguided, motive behind the creation of Adam. In this context, the term kāfir refers to "disobedience" no "unbelief", as Iblis does not deny the existence of God.[63] In his commentary, İsmail Hakkı elaborates that only the "angels of the earth" (ملائكة الارض), who previously battled the jinn, were disputing. Due to their abode on earth, their perception of heavenly wisdom is veiled, and thus, unlike the angels in the "higher realms", were subject to error. Among these earthly angels were also Harut and Marut and Iblis (ʿAzāzīl). Just like the jinn and devils, the fallen angels are a source of temptation for humans.[64]

In philosophy

[edit]

Inspired by Neoplatonism, the medieval Muslim philosopher Al-Farabi developed a cosmological hierarchy, governed by several Intellects. For al-Farabi, human nature is composed of both material and spiritual qualities. The spiritual part of a human exchanges information with the angelic entities, who are defined by their nature as knowledge absorbed by the Godhead.[65] A similar function is attested in the cosmology of the Muslim philosopher Ibn Sina, who, however, never uses the term angels throughout his works. For Ibn Sina, the Intellects have probably been a necessity without any religious connotation.[66] Islamic Modernist scholars such as Muhammad Asad and Ghulam Ahmed Parwez have suggested a metaphorical reinterpretation of the concept of angels.[67] According to Seyyed Hossein Nasr, human and angels. Muslim philosophers usually define angels as substances endowed with reason and immortality. Humans and animals are mortal, but only men have reason. Devils are unreasonable like animals, but immortal like angels.[68][69]

However, Muslim theologians, such as al-Suyuti, rejected the philosophical depiction on angels, based on hadiths stating that the angels have been created through the light of God (nūr). Thus, angels would have substance and could not merely be an intellectual entity as claimed by some philosophers.[70] This view is similar to the Salafi methodology of Muhammad ibn al-Uthaymin. He puts emphasis on that the belief in angels as literal, physical, and sentient creatures, is one of The Six Articles of Faith in Islam.[7]

Sufism

[edit]

Just as in non-Sufi-related traditions, angels are thought of as created of light. Al-Jili specifies that the angels are created from the Light of Muhammad and in his attribute of guidance, light and beauty.[72] Influenced by Ibn Arabi's Sufi metaphysics, Haydar Amuli identifies angels as created to represent different names/attributes of God's beauty, while the devils are created in accordance with God's attributes of Majesty, such as "The Haughty" or "The Domineering".[73]

Andalusian scholar ibn Arabi argues that a human generally ranks below angels, but developed to al-Insān al-Kāmil, ranks above them. While most earlier Sufis (like Hasan al-Basri) advised their disciples to imitate the angels, Ibn-Arabi advised them to surpass the angels. The angels being merely a reflection of the Divine Names in accordance within the spiritual realm, humans experience the Names of God manifested both in the spiritual and in the material world.[74][75] This reflects the major opinion that prophets and messengers among humans rank above angels, but the ordinary human below an angel, while the messengers among angels rank higher than prophets and messengers among humans.[40] Ibn Arabi elaborates his ranking in al-Futuhat based on a report by Tirmidhi. Accordingly, Muhammad intercedes for the angels first, then for (other) prophets, saints, believers, animals, plants and inanimate objects last, this explaining the hierarchy of beings in general Muslim thought.[76]

In later Sufism, angels do not appear as merely models for the mystic but also their companions. Humans, in a state between earth and heaven, seek angels as guidance to reach the upper realms.[74] Some authors have suggested that some individual angels in the microcosmos represent specific human faculties on a macrocosmic level.[77] According to a common belief, if a Sufi can not find a sheikh to teach him, he will be taught by the angel Khidr.[78][79] The presence of an angel depends on human's obedience to divine law. Dirt, depraved morality and desecration may ward off an angel.[74] A saint might be given the ability to see angels as gift (karāmāt) from God.[80]

Ahmad al-Tijani, founder of the Tijaniyyah order, narrates that angels are created through the words of humans. Through good words an angel of mercy is created, but through evil words an angel of punishment is created. By God's degree, if someone repents from evil words, the angel of punishment may turn into an angel of mercy.[81]

The Sufi Muslim and philosopher Al Ghazali (c. 1058–19 December 1111) divides human nature into four domains, each representing another type of creature: animals, beasts, devils and angels.[82] According to al-Ghazali, humans consist of animalistic and spiritual traits. From the spiritual realm (malakut), the plane in which symbols take on form, angels and devils advise the human hearth (qalb).[21] However, the angels also inhabit the realm beyond considered the realm from which reason ('aql) derives from and devils have no place.

While the angels endow the human mind with reason, advices virtues and leads to worshipping God, the devil perverts the mind and tempts to abusing the spiritual nature by committing sins, such as lying, betrayal, and deceit. The angelic natures advices how to use the animalistic body properly, while the devil perverts it.[83] In this regard, the plane of a human is, unlike whose of the jinn (here: angels and devils) [84] and animals, not pre-determined. Humans are potentially both angels and devils, depending on whether the sensual soul or the rational soul develop.[85][86]

In Salafism

[edit]

Contemporary Salafism continues to regard the belief in angels as a pillar of Islam and regards the rejection of the literal belief in angels as unbelief and an innovation brought by secularism and Positivism. Modern reinterpretations, as for example suggested by Nasr Abu Zayd, are strongly disregarded. Simultaneously, many traditional materials regarding angels are rejected on the ground, they would not be authentic. The Muslim Brotherhood scholars Sayyid Qutb and Umar Sulaiman Al-Ashqar reject much established material concerning angels, such as the story of Harut and Marut or naming the Angel of Death Azrail. Sulayman Ashqar not only rejects the traditional material itself, he furthermore disapproves of scholars who use them.[87]

Classification of angels

[edit]
Muhammad and the Angel Gabriel by Abd al-Razzak

Islam has no standard hierarchical organization that parallels the division into different "choirs" or spheres hypothesized and drafted by early medieval Christian theologians, but generally distinguishes between the angels in heaven (karubiyin) fully absorbed in the ma'rifa (knowledge) of God and the messengers (rasūl) who carry out divine decrees between heaven and earth.[88][89] Others add a third group of angels, and categorize angels into İlliyyûn Mukarrebûn (those around God's throne), Mudabbirât (carrying the laws of nature), and Rasūl (messengers).[90] Since angels are not equal in status and are consequently delegated to different tasks to perform, some authors of tafsir (mufassirūn) divided angels into different categories.

Al-Baydawi records that Muslim scholars divide angels in at least two groups: those who are self-immersed in knowledge of "the Truth" (al-Haqq), based on "they laud night and day, they never wane" (21:29), they are the "highmost" and "angels brought near" and those who are the executors of commands, based on "they do not disobey Allah in what He commanded them but they do what they are commanded" (66:6), who are the administers of the command of heaven to earth.[17]: 509 

Fakhr al-Din al-Razi (d. 1209) divided the angels into eight groups, which shows some resemblance to Christian angelology:[91]

Angels in Islamic art

[edit]

Angels in Islamic art often appear in illustrated manuscripts of Muhammad's life. Other common depictions of angels in Islamic art include angels with Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, angels discerning the saved from the damned on the Day of Judgement, and angels as a repeating motif in borders or textiles.[93] Islamic depictions of angels resemble winged Christian angels, although Islamic angels are typically shown with multicolored wings.[93] Angels, such as the archangel Gabriel, are typically depicted as masculine, which is consistent with God's rejection of feminine depictions of angels in several verses of Quran.[94] Nevertheless, later depictions of angels in Islamic art are more feminine and androgynous.[93]

The 13th century book Ajā'ib al-makhlūqāt wa gharā'ib al-mawjūdāt (The Wonders of Creation) by Zakariya al-Qazwini describes Islamic angelology, and is often illustrated with many images of angels. The angels are typically depicted with bright, vivid colors, giving them unusual liveliness and other-worldly translucence.[95] While some angels are referred to as "Guardians of the Kingdom of God," others are associated with hell. An undated manuscript of The Wonders of Creation from the Bavarian State Library in Munich includes depictions of angels both alone and alongside humans and animals.[95] Angels are also illustrated in Timurid and Ottoman manuscripts, such as The Timurid Book of the Prophet Muhammad's Ascension (Mir'ajnama) and the Siyer-i Nebi.[96]

Bektashi Alevism

[edit]

Despite its heterodoxy, Alevis believe in the Quran, the revelation by Muhammad, the afterlife, and angels, pretty much as Sunnis do.[97] Like orthodox Muslims, Alevis believe that Muhammad undertook the heavenly journey guided by the angel Gabriel (Turkish: Cebrâil), mentioned in the Quran (Surah 17), as evident from the miraçlama, a form of poetry (deyiş) remniscient of Anatolian folk songs.[98] Alevis affirm the Quranic message that angels were ordered to bow down before Adam, and for that reason, believe that humans inherent a special status.[99] Some Alevis believe that good and bad angels are merely symbols and do not believe in their literal existence.[100]

Angels are also mentioned in Alevi-spiritual literature. The cosmology outllined in the Buyruks ascribes a central role to angels. Accordingly, when God created the angels, God tested them by asking who they are. Those angels who responded "You are the Creator and I am the created." were the good angels, while those who claimed independency by stating "You are you; I am I" were burned.[101] Whereby, the destroyed angels feature as an example of spiritual ignorance.[102] Similar to the Quran, the story continues with that the angel Azâzîl, overcome by his ego, refuses to bow before the light, arguing that the light is a created thing and thus, cannot be the creator, and accordingly unworthy of prostration.[103] In contrast to Sunni tradition however, the light symbolizes Ali and Muhammad, not Adam.[104] Besides Gabriel and Azazil, other angels, such as the Kiraman Katibin also appear in the text.[105]

List of angels

[edit]

A narrative transmitted from Abu Dharr al-Ghifari, audited and commented by two hadith commentary experts in the modern era, Shuaib Al Arna'ut.[106] and Muḥammad 'Abd ar-Raḥmān al-Mubarakpuri,[107] has spoken several hadiths from Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, and Al-Sunan al-Sughra; that Muhammad said the number of angels were countless, to the point that there is no space in the sky as wide as four fingers, unless there is an angel resting his forehead, prostrating to God.[107][106]

Archangels (karubiyin)

[edit]

According to one source, there are four special angels (karubiyin)[108] considered to rank above the other angels in Islam. They have proper names, and central tasks are associated with them:

These four angels were specifically regarded by Abd ar-Rahman ibn Sabith, a Tabi'un as regulator of natural orders such as windblow, rain, plants growth, death, and tasks from God about aforementioned.[126][127]

Mentioned in the Quran

[edit]

  • Angels of Hell:
  • Angels who distribute provisions, rain, and other blessings by God's command; Mentioned in Qur'an chapter Adh-Dhariyat Quran 51:4 [143][144]
  • Ra'd: Angel of thunders, a name of angel who drive and regulating the clouds and rains in their task given by God were mentioned in Quran 13:13[145][146] Ibn Taymiyyah in his work, Majmu al-Fatwa al-Kubra, has quoted the Marfu hadith transmitted by Ali ibn abi Talib, that Ra'd were the name of angel who herded the dark clouds like a shepherd.[145][147] Ali further narrated that thunder (Ra'dan Arabic: رعدان) was the growling voices of Ra'd while herding the clouds, while lightning strikes (Sawa'iq Arabic: صوائق) were a flaming device used by the said angel in gathering and herding the raining clouds.[145] Al-Suyuti narrated from the hadith transmitted from Ibn Abbas about the lightning angel, while giving further commentary that hot light produced by lightning (Barq Arabic: برق) were the emitted light produced from a whip device used by those angels.[145][147] Saudi Grand Mufti Abd al-Aziz Bin Baz also ruled on the sunnah practice of reciting Sura Ar-Ra'd, Ayah 13 Quran 13:13 (Translated by Shakir) whenever a Muslim hears the sound of thunder, as this was practiced according to the hadith tradition narrated by Zubayr ibn al-Awwam.[148] The non-canonical interpretation from Salaf generation scholars regarding the tradition from Ali has described that etymologically ar-Ra'd means a movement of celestial clouds caused by the compression of air inside the cloud. This analogical explanation also defined as the metaphysical movement of the angel who moved clouds, as the basic Islamic tenet agreed that every movements within the universe resulted from the action or interference of the angels. Such example that voice of a person resulted from the movement a lips, tongue, teeth, epiglottis, and throat.[149]
  • Hamalat al-'Arsh, those who carry the 'Arsh (Throne of God),[150] Mentioned in chapter Ghafir Quran 40:7 and Al-Haqqa Quran 69:17.[151] These angels are comparable to the Christian Seraphim.[152]
  • Harut and Marut, a pair of angels who taught humans in Babylon magic; mentioned in Quran (2:102).[153] Some scholars, such as Hasan al-Basri, don't consider Harut and Marut to be angels.[154][155] Ibn Abbas and As Suddi opined they are indeed angels, but with a mission to test humans, while al-Tabari and Al-Qurtubi opined they are fallen angels for teaching humans about knowledge of magic.[156][55]

Mentioned in canonical hadith tradition

[edit]
  • The angels of the Seven Heavens.[citation needed]
  • Jundullah, those who helped Muhammad in the battlefield.[157]

In long hadith which transmitted by Al-Bara' ibn Azib, this angel was described as lacking eyesight and hearing (in some transmission the angel is blind and mute). Furthermore, the angel carrying a sledgehammer (or iron rod in some transmission) which described cannot be lifted by entire mankind and jinn even if they all unite their strength to do so. Amother feature of the sledgehammer was it produce metaphysical thundering sound which cannot be heard by living humans. the mission of this blind-deaf angel is to torture the sinner by crushing the head of sinners with such sledgehammer, and repeat the sequence after the sinner's head miraculously recovered to normal after the first strike. The hadith narrates this punishment by the angel will be repeated until Judgement Day.[161][162][163][164][165][166][167][168] Addendum from Fath al-Bari stated such angelic creature also carrying whip-like tool which end was a hot coal that has it size as big as a camel's head, which the angel used to punish the sinners.[169]
  • Angel of ice and fire, an angel Muhammad met during his night journey composed of ice and fire.[citation needed]
  • Angel who bestowed with strength equal of 70,000 angels and has 70,000 wings.[140] This angel were narrated in Al-Dur al-Manthur were able to see Al-ʽArsh, which were made of red ruby.[140]

According to hadith transmitted by Ibn Abbas, Muhammad encountered several significant angels on his journey through the celestial spheres.[171][172] Many scholars such as Al-Tha'labi drew their exegesis upon this narrative, but it never led to an established angelology as known in Christianity. The principal angels of the heavens are called Malkuk, instead of Malak.[173]

The rooster angel, in Miraj Literature, was held to be "enormous" and "white", and the comb on the top of his head "graze[d] the foot of Allah's celestial throne, its feet reach[ed] the earth", and its wings were thought to be large enough to "envelop both heaven and earth" and were covered with emeralds and pearls.[174] It is also thought to wake up mankind every morning through means like making "cocks below on Earth...crow" when it opens its mouth.[175]

In Arabic, both terms are closely related morphologically and phonetically.[24] Baydawi explains that the term light serves only as a proverb, but fire and light refers actually to the same substance.[25] Apart from light, other traditions also mention exceptions about angels created from fire, ice or water.[26] Tabari argued that both can be seen as the same substance, since both pass into each other but refer to the same thing on different degrees.[27] Asserting that both fire and light are actually the same but on different degrees can also be found by Qazwini and Ibishi.[28][29] In his work Al-Hay'a as-samya fi l-hay'a as-sunmya, Suyuti asserts that the angels are created from "fire that eats, but does not drink".[30] Abd al-Ghani al-Maqdisi argued that only the angels of mercy are created from light, but angels of punishment have been created from fire.[31]
  2. ^ Al-Tabari recorded several interpretations about the Nashi'at and Nashitat angels from Ibn Abbas, Mujahid ibn Jabr, and Qatada ibn Di'ama, among others.[130]
  3. ^ According to Muhammad al-Bukhari, when Muhammad journeyed through the celestial spheres and met Ibrahim in Bait al-Makmur, there are 70,000 angels in that place.[7] [176] (not a total number of angels)

Al-Kahfi: 50) Huruf fa' dalam ayat di atas menunjukkan sebab-akibat. Maksudnya, Allah Ta'ala menjadikan iblis dari jenis jin disebabkan karena kedurhakaannya. Dengan kata lain, iblis adalah jin yang durhaka terhadap perintah Allah Ta'ala. Seandainya iblis adalah malaikat sebagaimana malaikat-malaikat lain yang bersujud kepada Adam, tentu iblis tidak akan melawan atau mendurhakai perintah Allah Ta'ala. Hal ini karena malaikat itu terjaga (ma'shum) dari perbuatan dosa, tidak sebagaimana golongan manusia dan jin.
