The Superiority of the Prophets and the Angels
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. Are the prophets superior, or are the angels? And is it permissible for us to say that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is the best of creation?
Answer:
Superior to creation means the children of Adam, as he (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The master, not the masters, nor anyone else." As for the issue of the angels, as to which is superior to the humans, there is a place of disagreement, and there is no clear statement beneath it, so it is better to remain silent about it. It is better to remain silent about it. Yes.
