Another prominent figure among the angels in Islam is Angel Israfil, who will sound the trumpet signaling the end of the world and the beginning of resurrection. Though his task has yet to be carried out, the Quran and prophetic teachings describe it as one of the most awe-inspiring moments in existence.
“And the Trumpet will be blown, and whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth will fall dead except whom Allah wills. Then it will be blown again, and they will be standing, looking on.” (Quran 39:68)
This event emphasizes both Allah’s power and mercy; destruction followed by renewal, showing that even cosmic forces move according to His command.
