2. Angels: Beings of Light

A Quatrain Poem🧵in 10 parts

Angels are beautiful winged beings that Allah created from light,
they worship and obey Allah tirelessly, and do His tasks with might.
Angels have no free will; Allah’s Commands they have always obeyed,
yet, Angels have been worshipping Allah, ever since they were made.

Angels were made before Humans, and worried Man would cause harm,
they still hate evil disbelievers, but love the pious followers of Islam.
There is no such thing as ‘fallen Angels’ as Angels never do any sins,
Angels comfort Muslims, whereas Satan and his crew are Jinns.

Allah has told us what Angels do & some of their names He revealed
Muslims love all of Allah’s Angels like Gabriel, Michael & Israfeel
They have 2, 3 or 4 wings; Gabriel has 600 stretching across the sky
Angels are neither male nor female, but beautiful beings that are shy

Angels sometimes appear as men, even Gabriel appeared fine
A Rooster crows upon seeing an Angel; it's good to supplicate at that time
Angels don’t like garlicky or onion breath & other disgusting smells
they don’t enter houses containing dogs, graven images, idols or bells

Angels travel faster than light as Gabriel brought Revelation straight away
Angels change shifts at Fajr & Asr attending humans every day
Two Angels are always with us writing down all of our life’s events
the Recording Angel waits for 6 hours just in case a sinner repents

Gabriel delivered Allah’s Holy Books, for pious Prophets to preach
but just as Gabriel taught the Prophet how to pray; Angels also teach
Michael is in charge of the Angels who bring rain & make plants grow
one Angel has fiery spears of lightning who moves clouds to and fro

Angels have destroyed evil Nations like Pharaoh & the People of Lot or Luut
Israfeel is ready to blow the Trumpet on the Last Day: waiting in truth
As Allah Wills it; an Angel places every drop of rain
amazingly, just like fingerprints, no two snowflake shapes are the same

Angels guard the Heavens from evil Jinns by meteors that are hurled
on Laylat-al-Qadr more Angels come down than pebbles in our World
Angels supplicate for those who recite the Quran & learn their Deen
the Praying person is forgiven, who says along with the Angels “Ameen.”

70,000 pilgrim Angels do Hajj at Bayt-ul-Ma’moor in Heaven every day
nearly 5 billion Angels will pull Hell by ropes near us on the Last Day
The Angel of Death takes out the soul from anyone who dies
Munkar & Nakeer will question us in our graves- where we cannot tell lies

Angel Maalik is Hell's Supervisor, where the evil will burn & stink
Hell's 19 Angels carry out Allah’s Punishments in a blink
Angels attend to babies in wombs, blow in souls & write what Allah Fates
the Angels will say “Assalaam Alaykum!” as Believers enter Heaven’s gates
