What does belief in the angels mean?
Praise be to Allaah.
The angels form an unseen world; they were created by Allaah from
light and they obey the commands of Allaah:
"who disobey not, (from executing) the Commandsthey receive from
Allaah, but do that which they are commanded"
[al-Tahreem 66:6 – interpretation of the meaning]
Belief in the angels implies four essential things:
1 – Affirming that they exist and that they are part of the creation
of Allaah, subject to His Lordship and subjugated to Him.
"…honoured slaves.
They speak not until He has spoken, and they act on His Command"
[al-Anbiya' 21:26-27 – interpretation of the meaning]
"who disobey not, (from executing) the Commandsthey receive from
Allaah, but do that which they are commanded"
[al-Tahreem 66:6 – interpretation of the meaning]
"And those who are near Him (i.e. the angels) are not too proud to
worship Him, nor are they weary (of His worship).
They (i.e. the angels) glorify His Praises night and day, (and) they
never slacken (to do so)"
[al-Anbiya' 21:19-20 – interpretation of the meaning]
2 – Belief in the names of those whose name we know, such as Jibreel,
Mikaa'eel, Israafeel, Maalik, Radwaan and others – peace be upon them.
3 – Belief in the attributesof those whose attributes we know, as we
know thedescription of Jibreel fromthe Sunnah, and that he has six
hundred wings which filled the horizon orthe sky.
4 – Belief in the actions which we know some of them do, so Jibreel
(peace be upon him) was entrusted with that whichrevives the heart,
namely the Revelation. Israafeel isentrusted with sounding the
Trumpet-blast (to herald the onset of the Day of Resurrection);
Mikaa'eel is entrusted with the rain; Maalik is entrusted with Hell,
and so on.
One of the most important things that we must believe in is that every
person has two angels with him who record his deeds. Allaah says
(interpretation of themeaning):
"(Remember) that the two receivers (recording angels) receive (each
human being), one sitting on the right and one on the left (to note
his or her actions)
Not a word does he (or she) utter but there is a watcher by him ready
(to record it)"[Qaaf 50:17-18]
i.e., a watcher from among these angels who is present. So beware lest
these two angels record anything from you that will be bad for you on
theDay of Resurrection, for everything that you say will be recorded
against you, and when the Day of Resurrection comes, each person's
book of deeds will be brought out,
"…and on the Day of Resurrection, We shall bring out for him a book
which he will find wide open.
(It will be said to him): 'Read your book. You yourself are sufficient
as areckoner against you this Day.'"
[al-Isra' 17:13-14 – interpretation of the meaning].
We ask Allaah to conceal our sins and forgive us, for He is
All-Seeing, Ever Responsive. And Allaah knows best.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
