Many Quranic stories feature angels playing key roles, from bringing glad tidings to prophets to delivering divine messages of warning or mercy.
- Angel Jibreel appeared to Maryam (Mary), announcing the birth of Prophet Isa (Jesus).
- Angels visited Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) with news of his son and the coming judgment upon disbelievers.
- Angels assisted believers in battles, as in the Battle of Badr, where Allah sent them to strengthen the hearts of Muslims.
“[Remember] when you said to the believers, ‘Is it not sufficient for you that your Lord should reinforce you with three thousand angels sent down?’” (Quran 3:124)
These moments show how angels are instruments of Allah’s mercy and justice, actively shaping the course of human history.
