Angels

They ask, “Why wasn’t an angel sent down to him?” But had We sent an angel, their fate would have been sealed, leaving them no chance to repent.

Those who do not expect to meet Us say, “If only angels were sent down to us, or we could see our Lord.” They have grown arrogant within themselves and have become excessively defiant.

And if We had sent an angel, We would have made him appear as a man, further confusing them in their doubts.

Say: “It was sent down by the One who knows the secrets of the heavens and the earth.

And they say, “What kind of messenger is this, who eats food and walks in the marketplaces? If only an angel had been sent down with him to warn alongside him

Or a treasure had been dropped upon him, or he had a garden from which he could eat.” The wrongdoers say, “You are only following a man under a spell.”

See how they invent comparisons for you, they have gone astray and cannot find a way.

Whoever opposes Allah, His angels, His messengers, Gabriel, and Michael, then Allah is an enemy to the disbelievers.

We have sent down clear signs, and none reject them except the defiantly rebellious.

If you falter after clear guidance has come to you.
