' (41:31) The Islamic Concept of Angels − The nature of angels is understood differently among the followers of different religions. Islam speaks of angels as celestial − beings who have their own entity as persons. The major role they play is the transmission of messages from God to human beings. According to the Holy Qur’an, the entire material universe as well − as the religious universe is governed by some spiritual powers, which are referred to as angels. Whatever they do is in complete submission to the Will of God and the design that He created for things. They cannot make the slightest deviation from the set course or functions allocated to them, or from the overall plan of things made by God. The Holy Qur’an says regarding angels: − ÆËj¿ÛÍ B¿ Æ̼¨°Í Ë Çj¿A F¿ ɼ»A ÆÌv¨Í Ü , ‘ ä æ å ä æ å ä ä æ å ä æ ä ä æ å ä ä ä ä ä Õ ä æ å æ ä ä la ya‘sunallaha ma amarahum wa yaf‘aluna ma yu’marun − ± − − − − − Who (angels) disobey not Allah in what He commands them and do as − 65
