Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And among the conditions is that he mentions the name of his state.
Answer:
It is not established that he was named Azrael, the Angel of Death, so let your followers leave the Angel of Death[As-Sajdah 32:11] Then they say Allah named him the Angel of Death, and it is not established that he was named Azrael. As for Israfil, this is obligatory; the one who describes the images is named Israfil. The name "O Allah, Lord of Jibril, Mikail, and Israfil" was mentioned in the supplication of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him): Mikail and Israfil, Jibril, Mikail, and Israfil; their names were mentioned. Also, the name Malik was mentioned; they said, "O Malik, the one who..."[Az-Zukhruf 43:76-77]...the name Malik is the name of Malik, who is the keeper of the Fire. As for the other angels, we did not find their names, so we refrain. But it is said: the Angel of Death, the Angel of Rain and Plants, the Angel of Fetuses, the Angel of such-and-such; these are added to the matters that Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He) entrusted to them. It is said: the Angel of the Mountains, as the Angel of the Mountains came to the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) and asked his permission to release two rocks upon the disbelievers of Makkah. Yes.
And among the conditions is that he mentions the name of his state.
Answer:
It is not established that he was named Azrael, the Angel of Death, so let your followers leave the Angel of Death
who has been entrusted with you. Then to your Lord
الَّذِي وُكِّلَ بِكُمْ ثُمَّ إِلَىٰ رَبِّكُمْthey who were the wrongdoers. (77) And they will call, "O Malik, let your Lord put an end to us!"
هُمُ الظَّالِمِينَ وَنَادَوْا يَا مَالِكُ لِيَقْضِ عَلَيْنَا رَبُّكَ
