Do You Really Believe in Angels? | In Pursuit of Conviction
بِسْمِ اللهِ الرَّحْمٰنِ الرَّحِيْمِ
Introduction
The in Pursuit of conviction ‘series aims to instill confidence in the core pillars of the Islamic worldview. This article addresses the second pillar of faith: belief in angels. This belief is often misunderstood as being a superfluous concept that has no real significance in our day-to-day lives. Many believers may see it as just an abstract theoretical belief to be affirmed without appreciating its significance as one of the core pillars of faith, each of which is crucial for human beings to pursue the upward spiritual path in life. Hence, the angelic realm must be relevant and believing in angels must provide us with powerful sources of meaning in our lives. The goal of this paper is to uncover this hidden source of light by articulating the cosmological, spiritual, eschatological, and psychological relevance of angels to humankind. In addition to this, we preface the discussion by establishing the epistemological framework necessary for the study of angels and highlighting some of the fallacies underlying objections to their existence. With a more comprehensive understanding of the theology of angels, we can enhance our lives with the light of this article of faith.
