  • The article contrasts human misuse of strength with the angels’ constant worship and humility before Allah.
  • Quranic verses describe the angels as honored servants who worship without fatigue, obey divine commands and fear Allah.
  • Their devotion is presented as a lesson in submission and restraint.

Strength often gives people a reason to oppress others, grow arrogant, reject worship and refuse to submit. The angels are described as the exception.

Despite their immense bodies and extraordinary power, the angels reach the highest level of devotion, obedience and humility before Allah. The Quran says that those who are with Him do not consider worship too great for them, nor do they grow tired. They glorify Him continuously, day and night.

Another Quranic passage describes the angels as honored servants, rejecting the claim that they are children of the Most Merciful. They do not speak before Allah does, and they carry out His commands. They intercede only for those whom Allah approves, and they remain wary because they fear Him.

The article presents this continuing service as the result of the angels’ profound fear of Allah and their complete submission to Him. Their strength does not produce pride. Instead, it deepens their worship and obedience.
