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

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.

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.

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).

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

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.
