Belief in Angels

Muslims believe that angels have been created by Allah from light. They have no free will and fulfil certain functions in the service of Allah. They also worship Allah. Some angels mentioned in the Quran and Sunnah; 
  • Jibrail (Gabriel): He is the leader of the angels. His function was mainly to bring revelation to the Messengers. 
  • Mikaeel (Michael): He is in charge of rain and supplying sustenance to all living beings. 
  • Israfeel (Raphael): He is to blow the trumpet when the time for the end of the world arrives. 
  • Azraeel (Azrael): The angel of death. 
  • Al-Kiraam Al-Kaatibeen: Two honourable recorders who note all our actions.
