....If
we could clearly see the angels and speak to them, the notions
of "test" and "faith in the unseen" would lose their meaning.
The misguided belief of "I do not believe in what I cannot see"
is null and void. The microbes in our hair, skin, fingernails,
water, air, and food have been scientifically proven, yet we cannot
see them.
....We breathe oxygen as ceaselessly
as fish swim in the sea. Yet, we cannot perceive or see it, as
it does not have color or taste. While we cannot see microorganisms
and atoms in the material world with our sense of sight, the notion
that "I do not believe in what I cannot see" is more than a misguided
belief; it is denial that is actually obstinate disbelief.
....Fearing neither Hellfire, nor
having hope of Paradise, the angels do not eat, drink, sleep,
nor have desires or needs. Since they have been created from light
(noor), Hellfire cannot burn them, nor can the blessings
of Paradise satisfy them.
....The angels, whose only satisfaction
is divine abundance and spiritual indulgence, promptly obey the
commands of Allah Almighty, pray in an orderly manner and continuously
recite the attributes of Allah just as we breathe air.
