We are trying in this blog to know Who the angels are. Muslim kids do arabic hifzul quran and islamic studies in quran online classes for kids.They learn that the holy Quran doesn’t tell us much about the physical nature of the honorable servants of allah. However, we know that Allah created the servats of allah before Adam. They witnessed what had happened before the creation of Adam. They saw how the jin were wicked and corrupt before the creation of adam. The jinn shed blood and committed crimes. We know more about the luminous creatures who glorified and worshiped Allah all the time. Allah created them out of light.
Their incredible abilities:
Muslims should know Who the angels are. They can take the form of humans. Muslim kids do arabic hifzul quran and islamic studies in quran online classes for kids.They learn When Jibril appeared to Mariam before her pregnancy in Issa, he appeared to her in a human form. Also, Jibril appeared a lot of times in a human form to teach the prophet’s companions their religion, Islam. The holy Quran says that angels have two, three or four wings. Prophet Mohammad saw Jibreel who had six hundred wings. Moreover, angels have huge bodies. Prophet Mohammad said that one of them is so big that the distance between his earlobes takes seven hundred years to cover. Scholars did not describe angels as males or females. This may be because they do not get married or bear children.
The arabs knew angels before islam:
The Arabs had a wrong idea about Who the angels are. The Arabs preferred boys to girls. However, they described the angels as the daughters of Allah.Muslim kids do arabic hifzul quran and islamic studies in quran online classes for kids.They learn that the holy Quran criticized the Arabs’ way of thinking. They saw that girls were inferior to boys. Then how did they allocate girls to Allah while they had boys and sons? This must be absurd, the Quran emphasized. In addition, angels don’t eat or drink. When a delegation of angels visited the hospitable Ibrahim, he offered them a roast calf. However, they did not eat it. He got scared. Therefore, scholars are of the opinion that angels don’t eat, drink or get married. Therefore, we can say that angels are luminous creatures, unlike humans. They don’t have the worldly lusts we have.
Their moral aspects:
We know exactly Who the angels are. They are honorable and good creatures. angels obey Allah all the time. angels are also shy and modest. The Quran verses and the prophet’s hadith talk a lot about them . Muslim kids do arabic hifzul quran and islamic studies in quran online classes for kids.They learn that Angels have good relations with humans and the whole universe in general. They carry out the commands of Allah. They execute the will of Allah all the time. Each angel has a certain mission to carry out. According to the commands of Allah, angels look after the affairs of the skies and on earth. Some angels care for the revelation. Others care for rain. Therefore, Jibril and Michael are high ranking angels. Jibril and Michael are in charge of other low ranking ones who help them.
More missions, more angels:
The holy Quran teaches us Who the angels are. The wind and the clouds are the responsibility of other angels. They are the assistants of Michael. Another prominent angel, Israfeel is responsible for the Horn.Muslim kids do arabic hifzul quran and islamic studies in quran online classes for kids.They learn that the Horn is the tool in which Israfeel will blow to declare the end of the world on the last day. There is another prominent angel. It is the angel of death. His mission is to take people’s lives at their death and during their sleep. Some others work as guardians who watch over humans day and night. They protect the son of Adam against the evil of humans, the jinn and all other harmful creatures. When Allah decides something for that human, they do not stand against the divine will of Allah.
In the wide universe:
Prophet Mohammad told us Who the angels are. Some angels record all the deeds which a human does day and night. Others care for the incidents of the grave. Some others function as the keepers of paradize and the keeper of hell. Redwan is the chief keeper of paradize. Malik is the chief keeper of hell.

The throne bearers:
Muslim scholars studied Who the angels are. The function of some prominent luminous creatures is to carry the throne of allah. They glorify Allah and ask for mercy for humans. Other servants roam the skies and the earth. They look for congregations in which believers mention Allah and practice zikr. Another category of those creatures care for the mountains. Muslim kids do arabic hifzul quran and islamic studies in quran online classes for kids.They learn that the holy Quran and the prophet’s sunnah stress the importance of believing in the existence of honorable creatures. it comes before believing in the holy scripts.
It tells us little about the physical nature of angels.
They are luminous obedient creatures.
A Muslim should believe in the existence of the honorable angels.
