Continuation of the exegesis of the saying of Allah the Exalted: “When armies came against you, We sent upon them a wind and armies you did not see”

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
So the conclusion is that this wind was very severe; it scattered them until they withdrew, along with the terror that the angels cast into their hearts. For this reason, He said:
a wind and armies [of angels] you did not see رِيحًا وَجُنُودًا لَمْ تَرَوْهَا
[Al-Ahzab 33:9]
Why “you did not see”? Because Allah the Exalted veiled the angels from the eyes of people. The angels attend gatherings of dhikr, and the angels take turns among the children of Adam by night and day. The angels are guardians over the right and the left, and yet we do not see them because Allah the Exalted has veiled them. May Allah the Exalted grant us the opportunity to discuss in the benefits section that this is clear evidence of the weakness of the children of Adam. They are tangible bodies present before them, indeed to their right and to their left, and yet they do not see them. Allah the Exalted said:
and We sent upon them a wind and armies [of angels] you did not see فَأَرْسَلْنَا عَلَيْهِمْ رِيحًا وَجُنُودًا لَمْ تَرَوْهَا
[Al-Ahzab 33:9]
