The Effects of Faith in Angels on Our Lives

Although it is a pillar of faith in itself, faith in angels has a very close connection with other pillars of faith. First of all, faith in angels brings with it faith in Allah (swt) and the order He has placed in the universe. Because Almighty Allah (swt) has hidden the perfect functioning of the world behind visible or invisible causes and beings. Angels are also in charge of the order that Almighty Allah (swt) has created in the universe, and they fulfill the task ordered to them in the order of the universe without interruption. 

Thanks to faith in angels, people know that they were not created on earth alone, and reinforce their belief that there are angels appointed by Allah (swt) with them at all times and places. It also instills confidence in them, reminding them that they are not alone. In the darkest, most secluded places, they see them as their companions. 

A person who lives the destiny hidden in the knowledge of Almighty Allah (swt), when the time comes, delivers his soul entrusted to him to the angel of death, who is assigned by Allah. Anyone who believes in angels knows that death is not perishment for themselves. On the contrary, it is the starting point of the Hereafter journey that starts with the questions of the angels. Therefore, these thoughts lead a person to do good deeds and to make preparations for the abode of everlasting life.

Angels are symbols of devotion, loyalty and submission to Allah (swt). They act only by the command of Allah (swt), they do not bow to anyone or anything other than Him. They are also the symbol of spiritual cleanliness, purification from all dirt and sins. Although they are intelligent and conscious beings, they do not engage in any words or behaviors that will lead them to rebellion against Almighty Allah (swt). They are always ready to fulfill the command of Allah (swt). With these aspects, they remind the people sent to the world for servitude of their original duty.
