1. Angels are a sinless creation of Allah Ta‘ala and are created from light. The angels are invisible to us, and they are neither male nor female. They are free from all human needs such as eating, drinking, sleeping, etc. ^[1]

2. Allah Ta‘ala has given them various duties to perform. They fulfil whatever Allah Ta‘ala has commanded them to fulfil, and do not disobey Allah Ta‘ala. ^[2]

3. We do not know the exact number of all the angels, but we believe in the existence of angels and their fulfilling the function that Allah Ta‘ala has created them for. ^[3]
