Tom Facchine – Ayah Series #28 – Surah Al-Qadr

			One of the things that Allah mentions and sorrows of color is the angels, right? He talks about
Laila to the Father right? This night of power, the Night of Decree whatever we want to translate it
as how it's better you know, it's it's the best night of the year, so many rewards all these things
that everybody knows that we talk about every Ramadan. But one of the things that is interesting
about sorts of colors that Allah azza wa jal mentions the angels, and that the angels are the ones
that carry out Allah's Will when it comes to many sorts of things. And there's an important
theological point here is that this doesn't mean that the angels first of all have any independent
		

			authority, right? So that, that doesn't mean that the angels are eligible for us to call to or pray
to, or do anything, because they don't have any will have their own way if I don't have that metal,
right. And then they do what they're told to do. They don't have the ability to disobey. And so this
is an important point with Tao hate, because just because Allah subhanaw taala accomplishes some
things in the creation through the angels. First of all, it doesn't imply a need or a necessity from
Allah subhanaw taala. If Allah subhanaw taala wanted to he didn't have to make it happen with
angels, but whatever, for whatever reason, out of his wisdom, he wanted some things to be done
		

			through or by the angels, right? Just like when Allah azza wa jal revealed the Quran to the Prophet
Allah He set out to sit down most of the time was done through the angel Jibreel but sometimes it
was done in a different way especially when it comes to you know, for example, you know, the the
night journey and the ascension you know, through the seven heavens and Allah azza wa jal speaking
directly to the Prophet Muhammad Ali. So that's right, if you wanted to, if Allah wanted to, he
could have given the Koran just like that to the prophet of a so that's but through his wisdom, for
whatever reason, he chose to go through angels so the first thing is that just because Allah Spano
		

			Tata uses angels or commands angels to carry out certain tasks, it doesn't imply that Allah azza wa
jal can't do it by himself. Right? And the second thing that an employee it doesn't imply it doesn't
imply that these angels have any sort of power or authority such that we would call upon them or ask
them to do or pray to them or that they have any sort of share in His divinity. All the Divinity
belongs to Allah Spano Tata, and the angels are just creations just like us.
