My dear bro Aristeo Canlas Fernando.

Please find some extracts from the Quran regarding the angels. I hope
this will help your thirst and desire for knowledge of peace and
truth.

ANGELS IN THE QUR'AN

http://www.harunyahya.com/generalknowledge5.php
THE ANGEL POSSESSED OF POWER: JIBRIL (also called Gabriel / Jibreel)

Truly it is the speech of a noble Messenger, (Surat at-Takwir, 19)

He is the Raiser of ranks, the Possessor of the Throne, He sends the
Spirit by His command to whichever of His servants He wills so that he
may warn mankind about the Day of Meeting: (Surah Ghafir, 15)

It is nothing but Revelation revealed, taught him by one immensely
strong, possessing power and splendour. He stood there stationary -
(Surat an-Najm, 4-6)

And veiled herself from them. Then We sent Our Spirit to her and it
took on for her the form of a handsome, well-built man. She said, 'I
seek refuge from you with the All-Merciful if you guard against evil.'
He said, 'I am only your Lord's messenger so that He can give you a
pure boy.' She said, 'How can I have a boy when no man has touched me
and I am not an unchaste woman?' He said, 'It will be so! Your Lord
says, "That is easy for Me. It is so that We can make him a Sign for
mankind and a mercy from Us." It is a matter already decreed.' (Surah
Maryam, 17-21)

JIBRIL'S SPLENDID BEAUTY

It is nothing but Revelation revealed, taught him by one immensely
strong, possessing power and splendour. He stood there stationary.
(Surat an-Najm, 4-6)

PROPHET MUHAMMED'S (PBUH) SEEING JIBRIL

And certainly he saw him in another descent, at the farthest lote-
tree; near which is the garden, the place to be resorted to. When that
which covers covered the lote-tree; the eye did not turn aside, nor
did it exceed the limit. Certainly he saw of the greatest signs of his
Lord. (Surat an-Najm, 13-18)

JIBRIL'S APPEARANCE ON THE HORIZON

He saw him on the clear horizon. (Surat at-Takwir, 23)

JIBRIL'S DESCENT TO MARYAM IN THE FORM
of a Handsome Man

And veiled herself from them. Then We sent Our Spirit to her and it
took on for her the form of a handsome, well-built man. She said, 'I
seek refuge from you with the All-Merciful if you guard against evil.'
He said, 'I am only your Lord's messenger so that He can give you a
pure boy.' (Surah Maryam, 17-19)

TWO OBSERVING AND RECORDING ANGELS AT EVERYBODY'S SIDE

We created man and We know what his own self whispers to him. We are
nearer to him than his jugular vein. And the two recording angels are
recording, sitting on the right and on the left. He does not utter a
single word, without a watcher by him, pen in hand! (Surah Qaf,
16-18)

Standing over you are guardians, noble, recording, who know what you
do. (Surat al-Infitar, 10-12)

Everyone has a succession of angels in front of him and behind him,
guarding him by Allah's command. Allah never changes a people's state
until they change what is in themselves. When Allah desires evil for a
people, there is no averting it. They have no protector apart from
Him. (Surat ar-Ra'd, 11)

MESSENGER AnGELS WITH WINGS - TWO, THREE AND FOUR

Praise be to Allah, the Bringer into Being of the heavens and earth,
He Who made the angels messengers, with wings - two, three or four. He
adds to creation in any way He wills. Allah has power over all things.
(Surah Fatir, 1)

STERN AND STRONG ANGELS OVER THE FIRE OF HELL

You who believe! Safeguard yourselves and your families from a Fire
whose fuel is people and stones. Harsh, terrible angels are in charge
of it who do not disobey Allah in respect of any order He gives them
and carry out what they are ordered to do. (Surat at-Tahrim, 6)

ANGELS ASCEND TO the PRESENCE OF Allah IN A DAY
FIFTY THOUSAND YEARS long

The angels and the Spirit ascend to Him in a day whose length is fifty
thousand years. (Surat al-Ma'arij, 4)

ANGELS' WITNESSING

On the Day We gather them all together and then say to the angels,
'Was it you whom these people were worshipping?' they will say, 'Glory
be to You! You are our Protector, not them. No, they were worshipping
the jinn. They mostly had faith in them.' (Surah Saba, 40-41)

But Allah bears witness to what He has sent down to you. He has sent
it down with His knowledge. The angels bear witness as well. And Allah
suffices as a Witness. (Surat an-Nisa, 166)

Allah bears witness that there is no god but Him, as do the angels and
the people of knowledge, upholding justice. There is no god but Him,
the Almighty, the All-Wise. (Surah Al 'Imran, 18)

THE FAVOURED ANGELS' SERVITUDE TO Allah

The Messiah would never disdain to be a slave to Allah nor would the
angels near to Him. If any do disdain to worship Him, and grow
arrogant, He will in any case gather them all to Him. (Surat an-Nisa,
172)

ANGELS CIRCLING ROUND THE THRONE

You will see the angels circling round the Throne, glorifying their
Lord with praise. It will be decided between them with truth. And it
will be said: 'Praise be to Allah, the Lord of all the worlds.' (Surat
az-Zumar, 75)

ANGELS DRAWN UP IN RANKS AND GLORIFYING ALLAH

There is not one of us who does not have a known station. We are those
drawn up in ranks. We are those who glorify.' (Surat as-Saffat,
164-166)

The thunder glorifies His praise, as do the angels, out of fear of
Him. He discharges the thunderbolts, striking with them anyone He
wills. Yet still they argue about Allah when He is inexorable in His
power! (Surat ar-Rad, 13)

The heavens are all but rent asunder from above when the angels
glorify their Lord with praise and ask forgiveness for those who are
on the earth. Allah is the Ever-Forgiving, the Most Merciful (Surat
ash-Shura, 5)

ANGELS PROSTRATING themselves TO the PROPHET ADAM (as)

When your Lord said to the angels, 'I am putting an overlord on the
earth,' they said, 'Why put on it one who will cause corruption on it
and shed blood when we glorify You with praise and proclaim Your
purity?' He said, 'I know what you do not know.' He taught Adam the
names of all things. Then He arrayed them before the angels and said,
'Tell me the names of these if you are telling the truth.' They said,
'Glory be to You! We have no knowledge except what You have taught us.
You are the All-Knowing, the All-Wise.' He said, 'Adam, tell them
their names.' When he had told them their names, He said, 'Did I not
tell you that I know the Unseen of the heavens and the earth, and I
know what you make known and what you hide?' We said to the angels,
'Prostrate to Adam!' and they prostrated, with the exception of Iblis.
He refused and was arrogant and was one of the disbelievers. (Surat al-
Baqara, 30-34)

ANGELS FEAR THEIR LORD AND DO WHAT THEY ARE ORDERED TO DO

Everything in the heavens and every creature on the earth prostrates
to Allah, as do the angels. They are not puffed up with pride. They
fear their Lord above them and do everything they are ordered to do.
(Surat an-Nahl, 49-50)

ANGELS RANK UPON RANK

And your Lord arrives with the angels rank upon rank (Surat al-Fajr,
22)

ANGELS' PRAYER THAT BELIEVERS BE BROUGHT OUT OF
DARKNESS INTO THE LIGHT

You who believe! Remember Allah much, and glorify Him in the morning
and the evening. It is He Who calls down blessing on you, as do His
angels, to bring you out of the darkness into the light. He is Most
Merciful to the believers. (Surat al-Ahzab, 41-43)

ANGELS' ASKING FOR BLESSINGS ON THE PROPHET

Allah and His angels call down blessings on the Prophet. You who
believe! Call down blessings on him and ask for complete peace and
safety for him. (Surat al-Ahzab, 56)

ANGELS' DESCENDING TO BELIEVERS AND GIVING THEM GLAD TIDINGS

The angels descend on those who say, 'Our Lord is Allah,' and then go
straight: 'Do not fear and do not grieve but rejoice in the Garden you
have been promised. We are your protectors in the life of this world
and the hereafter.You will have there all that your selves could wish
for. You will have there everything you demand. Hospitality from One
Who is Ever-Forgiving, Most Merciful.' (Surah Fussilat, 30-32)

Allah ASSISTS BELIEVERS WITH ANGELS

Remember when you called on your Lord for help and He responded to
you: 'I will reinforce you with a thousand angels riding rank after
rank.' Allah only did this to give you good news and that so your
hearts would be at rest. Victory comes from no one but Allah. Allah is
Almighty, All-Wise. (Surat al-Anfal, 9-10)

Allah helped you at Badr when you were weak so have fear of Allah, so
that hopefully you will be thankful. And when you said to the
believers, 'Is it not enough for you that your Lord reinforced you
with three thousand angels, sent down?' Yes indeed! But if you are
steadfast and guard against evil and they come upon you suddenly, your
Lord will reinforce you with five thousand angels, clearly identified.
Allah only did this for it to be good news for you and so that your
hearts might be set at rest by it (help comes from no one but Allah,
the Almighty, the All-Wise) and so that He might cut off a group of
those who are disbelievers, or overwhelm them so that they retire,
frustrated. (Surah Al 'Imran, 123-127)

You who believe! Remember Allah's blessing to you when forces came
against you and We sent a wind against them and other forces you could
not see. Allah sees what you do. (Surat al-Ahzab, 9)

ANGELS' DESCENDING TO EARTH ON THE NIGHT OF POWER
BY THEIR LORD'S AUTHORITY

Truly We sent it down on the Night of Power. And what will convey to
you what the Night of Power is? The Night of Power is better than a
thousand months. In it the angels and the Spirit descend by their
Lord's authority with every ordinance. It is Peace -until the coming
of the dawn. (Surat al-Qadr, 1-5)

THEIR CURSE UPON DISBELIEVERS

But as for those who disbelieve and die while they are disbelievers,
the curse of Allah is upon them and that of the angels and all
mankind. (Surat al-Baqara, 161)

ANGELS ARE HONOURED SERVANTS

They say, 'The All-Merciful has a son.' Glory be to Him! No, they are
honoured servants! They do not precede Him in speech and they act on
His command. He knows what is in front of them and what is behind
them. They only intercede on behalf of those with whom He is pleased,
and even they are apprehensive out of fear of Him. Were any of them to
say, 'I am a god apart from Him,' We would repay him with Hell. That
is how We repay wrongdoers. (Surat al-Anbiya, 26-29)

ANGELS THAT CAME IN TO the PROPHET Ibrahim (as)

And tell them about the guests of Ibrahim. When they came in to him,
they said, 'Peace!' He said, 'Truly we are afraid of you.' They said,
'Do not be afraid. We bring you the good news of a boy of great
knowledge.' He said, 'Do you bring me this good news despite the fact
of old age having reached me? What kind of good news are you bringing
me?' They said, 'We bring you good news of the truth, so do not be
among those who despair.' He said, 'Who despairs of the mercy of his
Lord except for misguided people?' He added, 'What is your business,
messengers?' They said, 'We have been sent to a people who are
evildoers -with the exception of the family of Lut, all of whom We
will save, except for his wife. We have decreed her to be one of those
who stay behind.' (Surat al-Hijr, 51-60)

Our messengers brought the good news to Ibrahim. They said, 'Peace!'
and he too said, 'Peace!' and brought in a roasted calf without delay.
When he saw that their hands were not reaching for it, he suspected
them and felt afraid of them. They said, 'Have no fear! We have been
sent to the people of Lut.' His wife was standing there and she
laughed out loud. So We gave her the good news of Ishaq, and beyond
Ishaq, Ya'qub. She said, 'Woe is me! How can I give birth when I am an
old woman and my husband here is an aged man? This is indeed an
astonishing thing!' They said, 'Are you astonished at Allah's command?
May Allah's mercy and His blessings be upon you, People of the House!
He is Praiseworthy, All-Glorious.' (Surah Hud, 69-73)

Our messengers brought the good news to Ibrahim. They said, 'Peace!'
and he too said, 'Peace!' and brought in a roasted calf without delay.
When he saw that their hands were not reaching for it, he suspected
them and felt afraid of them. They said, 'Have no fear! We have been
sent to the people of Lut.' (Surah Hud, 69-70)

ANGELS THAT CAME TO the PROPHET LUT (as)

When the Messengers came to the family of Lut, he said, 'You are
people we do not know.' They said, 'We have come to you with what they
had doubts about. We have brought you the truth and we are certainly
truthful men. Travel with your family in the dead of night, following
behind with them in front of you. None of you must look back. Go where
you are ordered to.' (Surat al-Hijr, 61-65)

When Our Messengers came to Lut, he was distressed on their account,
feeling incapable of protecting them. They said, 'Do not fear and do
not grieve. We are going to rescue you and your family - except for
your wife; she will be one of those who stay behind. We will bring
down on the inhabitants of this city a devastating punishment from
heaven because of their deviance.' (Surat al-Ankabut, 33-34)

When Our messengers came to Lut, he was distressed for them, and very
concerned for them, and said, 'This is a dreadful day.' (Surah Hud,
77)

ANGELS THAT CAME TO the PROPHET Zakariyya (as)

The angels called out to him while he was standing in prayer in the
Upper Room: 'Allah gives you the good news of Yahya, who will come to
confirm a Word from Allah, and honorable and chaste and a Prophet and
one of the righteous.' He said, 'My Lord, how can I possibly have a
son when I have reached old age and my wife is barren?' He said, 'It
will be so. Allah does whatever He wills.' He said, 'My Lord, appoint
a Sign for me.' He said, 'Your Sign is that you will not speak to
people for three days, except by gesture. Remember your Lord much and
glorify Him in the evening and after dawn.' (Surah Al 'Imran, 39-41)

'Zakariyya! We give you the good news of a boy named Yahya, a name we
have given to no one else before.' He said, 'My Lord! How can I have a
boy when my wife is barren and I have reached advanced old age?' He
said, 'It will be so! Your Lord says, "That is easy for me to do. I
created you before, when you were not anything."' He said, 'My Lord,
give me a Sign.' He said, 'Your Sign is not to speak to people for
three nights despite the fact that you are perfectly able to.' (Surah
Maryam, 7-10)

ANGELS THAT CAME TO MARYAM (as)

And when the angels said, 'Maryam, Allah has chosen you and purified
you. He has chosen you over all other women. Maryam, obey your Lord
and prostrate and bow with those who bow.' This is news from the
Unseen which We reveal to you. You were not with them when they cast
their reeds to see which of them would be the guardian of Maryam. You
were not with them when they quarrelled. When the angels said,
'Maryam, your Lord gives you good news of a Word from Him. His name is
the Messiah, 'Isa, son of Maryam, of high esteem in this world and the
hereafter, and one of those brought near. He will speak to people in
the cradle, and also when fully grown, and will be one of the
righteous,' she said, 'My Lord! How can I have a son when no man has
ever touched me?' He said, 'It will be so.' Allah creates whatever He
wills. When He decides on something, He just says to it, 'Be!' and it
is. (Surah Al 'Imran, 42-47)

And veiled herself from them. Then We sent Our Spirit to her and it
took on for her the form of a handsome, well-built man. She said, 'I
seek refuge from you with the All-Merciful if you guard against evil.'
He said, 'I am only your Lord's messenger so that He can give you a
pure boy.' She said, 'How can I have a boy when no man has touched me
and I am not an unchaste woman?' He said, 'It will be so! Your Lord
says, "That is easy for Me. It is so that We can make him a Sign for
mankind and a mercy from Us." It is a matter already decreed.' (Surah
Maryam, 17-21)

DEATH ANGELS

Everyone has a succession of angels in front of him and behind him,
guarding him by Allah's command. Allah never changes a people's state
until they change what is in themselves. When Allah desires evil for a
people, there is no averting it. They have no protector apart from
Him. (Surat ar-Rad, 11)

How will it be when the angels take them in death, beating their faces
and their backs? That is because they followed what angers Allah and
hated what is pleasing to Him. So He made their actions come to
nothing. (Surah Muhammad, 27-28)

The angels ask those they take while they are wronging themselves,
'What were your circumstances?' They reply, 'We were oppressed on
earth.' They say, 'Was Allah's earth not wide enough for you to have
migrated to elsewhere in it?' The shelter of such people will be Hell.
What an evil destination! (Surat an-Nisa', 97)

Who could do greater wrong than someone who invents lies against Allah
or denies His Signs, or who says, 'It has been revealed to me,' when
nothing has been revealed to him, or someone who says, 'I will send
down the same as Allah has sent down'? If you could only see the
wrongdoers in the throes of death when the angels are stretching out
their hands, saying, 'Disgorge your own selves! Today you will be
repaid with the punishment of humiliation for saying something other
than the truth about Allah, and being arrogant about His
Signs.' (Surat al-An'am, 93)

As for those the angels take in death while they are wronging
themselves, they will offer their submission: 'We did not do any
evil.' Oh yes you did! Allah knows what you were doing. Enter the
gates of Hell, remaining in it timelessly, for ever. How evil is the
abode of the arrogant!' When those who have fear of Allah are asked,
'What has your Lord sent down?' their reply is, 'Good!' There is good
in this world for those who do good, and the abode of the hereafter is
even better. How wonderful is the abode of those who guard against
evil: Gardens of Eden which they enter, with rivers flowing under
them, where they have whatever they desire. That is how Allah repays
those who guard agaisnt evil: those the angels take in a virtuous
state. They say, 'Peace be upon you! Enter the Garden for what you
did.' What are they waiting for but the angels to come to them or your
Lord's command to come? That is like what those before them did. Allah
did not wrong them; rather they wronged themselves. (Surat an-Nahl,
28-33)

ANGELS BEARING THE THRONE

And Heaven will be split apart, for that Day it will be very frail.
The angels will be gathered round its edge. On that Day, eight will
bear the Throne of their Lord above their heads. (Surat al-Haqqa,
16-17)

HARUT AND MARUT

They follow what the satans recited in the reign of Sulayman. Sulayman
did not become disbeliever, but the satans did, teaching people
sorcery and what had been sent down to Harut and Marut, the two angels
in Babylon, who taught no one without first saying to him, 'We are
merely a trial and temptation, so do not become disbelievers.' People
learned from them how to separate a man and his wife but they cannot
harm anyone by it, except with Allah's permission. They have learned
what will harm them and will not benefit them. They know that any who
deal in it will have no share in the hereafter. What an evil thing
they have sold themselves for if they only knew! (Surat al-Baqara,
102)

ANGELS BEARING THE ARK

Their Prophet said to them, 'Allah has appointed Talut to be your
king.' They said, 'How can he have kingship over us when we have much
more right to kingship than he does? He has not even got much wealth!'
He said, 'Allah has chosen him over you and favoured him greatly in
knowledge and physical strength. Allah gives kingship to anyone He
wills. Allah is All-Encompassing, All-Knowing.' Their Prophet said to
them, 'The sign of his kingship is that the Ark will come to you,
containing serenity from your Lord and certain relics left by the
families of Musa and Harun. It will be borne by angels. There is a
sign for you in that if you are believers.' (Surat al-Baqara, 247-248)

ANGELS ON THE DAY OF RISING

The Day when Heaven is split apart in clouds, and the angels are sent
down rank upon rank. The Kingdom that Day will belong in truth to the
All-Merciful. It will be a hard Day for the disbelievers. (Surat al-
Furqan, 25-26)

And your Lord arrives with the angels rank upon rank and that Day Hell
is produced, that Day man will remember; but how will the remembrance
help him? (Surat al-Fajr, 22-23)

On that Day, the Occurrence will occur and Heaven will be split apart,
for that Day it will be very frail. The angels will be gathered round
its edge. On that Day, eight will bear the Throne of their Lord above
their heads. (Surat al-Haqqa, 15-17)

On the Day when the Spirit and the angels stand in ranks, no one will
speak, except for him who is authorised by the All-Merciful and says
what is right. (Surat an-Naba, 38)

ANGELS OF PARADISE

Those the angels take in a virtuous state. They say, 'Peace be upon
you! Enter the Garden for what you did.' (Surat an-Nahl, 32)

And those who guard against evil of their Lord will be driven to the
Garden in companies and when they arrive there, finding its gates
open, its custodians will say to them, 'Peace be upon you! You have
done well so enter it timelessly, for ever.' (Surat az-Zumar, 73)

Gardens of Eden which they will enter, and all of their parents, wives
and children who were righteous. Angels will enter in to welcome them
from every gate: 'Peace be upon you because of your steadfastness! How
wonderful is the Ultimate Abode!' (Surat ar-Rad, 23-24)

ANGELS OF HELL (CUSTODIANS)

There are nineteen in charge of it. We have only appointed angels as
masters of the Fire and We have only specified their number as a trial
for those who disbelieve; so that those who were given the Book might
gain in certainty, and those who believe might increase in their
faith, and both those who were given the Book and the believers might
have no doubt; and so that those with sickness in their hearts and the
disbelievers might say, 'What did Allah intend by this example?' In
this way Allah misguides those He wills and guides those He wills. No
one knows the legions of your Lord but Him. This is nothing but a
reminder to all human beings. (Surat al-Muddaththir, 30-31)

You who believe! Safeguard yourselves and your families from a Fire
whose fuel is people and stones. Harsh, terrible angels are in charge
of it who do not disobey Allah in respect of any order He gives them
and carry out what they are ordered to do. (Surat at-Tahrim, 6)

It all but bursts with rage. Each time a group is flung into it its
custodians will question them:'Did no warner come to you?' (Surat al-
Mulk, 8)

Those who disbelieve will be driven to Hell in companies and when they
arrive there and its gates are opened its custodians will say to them,
'Did Messengers from yourselves not come to you, reciting your Lord's
Signs to you and warning you of the meeting on this Day of yours?'
They will say, 'Indeed they did, but the decree of punishment is
justly carried out against the disbelievers.' They will be told,
'Enter the gates of Hell and stay there timelessly, for ever. How evil
is the abode of the arrogant!' (Surat az-Zumar, 71-72)

They will call out, 'Master, let your Lord put an end to us!' He will
say, 'You will stay the way you are.' We brought you the truth but
most of you hated the truth. (Surat Zukhruf, 77-78)

I hope it help.

Oh Lord the creator show us the truth and give us peace and success
in this world and hereafter

AMEN
