Every angel has a specific duty assigned by Allah. The Quran and Islamic belief describe their roles in preserving the universe, guiding believers, and maintaining divine order. Among the duties of angels, the most significant include:
- Delivering revelation to prophets (like Angel Jibreel).
- Recording human deeds through angels Raqib and Atid.
- Guarding and protecting individuals by Allah’s permission.
- Managing nature, such as rainfall and wind, is overseen by Angel Mikaeel.
- Taking souls at the time of death, led by the Angel of Death (Malak al-Mawt).
- Glorifying and worshiping Allah endlessly.
“To Him belongs whoever is in the heavens and the earth. Those near Him are not prevented by arrogance from His worship, nor do they tire.” (Quran 21:19)
These duties remind believers that every movement in creation operates with divine purpose.
