Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him)Sunan Abi Dawud 4155Sahih (Al-Albani) Does this hadith apply to the angels of mercy, or is it general for all the angels?
Answer:
No, the angels of protection who guard your deeds do not leave you. As for the angels of mercy, they are the ones who do not enter a house in which there is a dog or wool. If the angels of mercy do not enter your house, the devils enter it, may Allah protect us from that. Because an angel and a devil do not meet in one place; either the angel remains, or the devil remains.
