00:00:08.380 --> 00:00:11.380
The Effects of Belief in the Angels

00:00:11.380 --> 00:00:18.660
Belief in the angels and their roles yields numerous positive effects.

00:00:18.660 --> 00:00:26.660
First among these is loving them and feeling a sense of comfort with them, as they are noble servants

00:00:26.660 --> 00:00:30.730
who love the believers and seek forgiveness for them.

00:00:30.730 --> 00:00:36.729
Second is the fear, magnification, and veneration of Allah, the Mighty and Sublime,

00:00:36.729 --> 00:00:40.729
considering that these angels, despite the power and grandeur of their creation,

00:00:40.729 --> 00:00:43.729
fear their Lord and stand in awe of Him.

00:00:43.729 --> 00:00:47.890
How much more so, then, should frail, helpless man?

00:00:47.890 --> 00:00:53.890
Third is feeling a sense of shyness and modesty before Allah and the noble recording angels,

00:00:53.890 --> 00:00:58.890
who never leave the servant and strictly count his deeds,

00:00:58.890 --> 00:01:07.079
such that the servant feels ashamed that they should witness him falling into acts of disobedience against Allah, the Mighty and Sublime, which he ought not to commit.

00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:08.079
Fourth,

00:01:08.079 --> 00:01:13.079
attaining reassurance and steadfastness during times of trials and jihad,

00:01:13.079 --> 00:01:20.079
knowing that Allah fortifies the believers through the angels who fight alongside them.

00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:24.819
