DEATH, RESURRECTION, HELL
You who have faith! Safeguard yourselves and those who are
close to you from a Fire whose fuel is people and stones.
Harsh, terrible angels are in charge of it who do not disobey
Allah in respect of any order He gives them and carry out
what they are ordered to do. (Surat at-Tahrim: 6)
No indeed! If he does not desist, We will grab him by the fore-
lock, his lying, sinful forelock. Let him call his attendants; We
will call the Guards of hell! No indeed! Do not obey him, but
prostrate yourself and draw near. (Surat al-'Alaq: 15-18)
These angels of punishment related in the Qur'an are the mani-
festations of Allah's wrath and rage for the unbelievers. They subject
the people of hell to the severest, and most terrifying and degrading
tortures.
The angels of punishment administer the punishment in the
way unbelievers deserve. These angels, the main manifestation of
Allah's justice, are the holy beings who perform this duty with great
pleasure and in a manner submissive to Allah.
