Is it problematic to say

00:00:03 --> 00:00:05

that there could be an angel task to

00:00:05 --> 00:00:07

look after the galaxies and the like? The

00:00:07 --> 00:00:09

angels carry out Allah

00:00:10 --> 00:00:11

command in creation.

00:00:12 --> 00:00:14

But at the same time, it is from

00:00:14 --> 00:00:14

having

00:00:14 --> 00:00:15

sanctity,

00:00:16 --> 00:00:19

Ta'aleem for Allah and for the religion that

00:00:19 --> 00:00:22

we only speak about matters of religion.

00:00:22 --> 00:00:25

That includes matters of the unseen on the

00:00:25 --> 00:00:26

basis of knowledge.

00:00:26 --> 00:00:29

There's no need. We say the general thing,

00:00:29 --> 00:00:31

Allah has angels in creation that take care

00:00:32 --> 00:00:34

of if affairs. There's angels that we know

00:00:34 --> 00:00:36

about and angels we don't know about.

00:00:38 --> 00:00:39

And we stop

00:00:39 --> 00:00:41

where Allah and his messenger have stopped in

00:00:41 --> 00:00:43

that, where we

00:00:44 --> 00:00:44

learn

00:00:45 --> 00:00:47

what the Ulema tell us about the angels

00:00:48 --> 00:00:50

as deduced from the Quran and the Sunnah

00:00:50 --> 00:00:53

soundly, and we stop there. That is the

00:00:53 --> 00:00:53

adab

00:00:54 --> 00:00:55

of deen.
