Angels
Chapter Iii., Verse 16.--God bears witness that there is no God but He, and the angels, and those possessed of knowledge standing up for justice. There is no God but He, the Mighty, the Wise
Verse 120.--When thou didst say unto the believers, "Is it not enough for you that your Lord assists you, with three thousand of the angels sent down from on high?"
Chapter VI., Verse 61.--He triumphs over his servants; He sends to them guardian angels, until, when death comes to any one of you, our messengers take him away; they pass not over any one, and then are they returned to God, their true sovereign.
Chapter VIII., Verse 12.--When your Lord inspired the angels--"Verily, I am with you; make ye firm then those who believe; I will cast dread into the hearts of those who misbelieve--strike off their necks then, and strike off from them every finger-tip."
That is, because they went into opposition against God and His apostle; for he who goes into opposition against God and His apostle--verily, God is keen to punish.
