Meleki su bića stvorena od svjetlosti koja se potpuno pokoravaju Bogu i ne neposluškuju. Nemaju slobodnu volju da griješe. Muslimani vjeruju u njih kao dio vjere: na primjer, Džibril je donio objavu, a meleki bilježe djela svake osobe.
Potpuniji odgovor
Kur'an spominje Džibrila, koji prenosi objavu, Mikaila, koji je zadužen za kišu i opskrbu, Israfila, koji će zatrubiti u rog, i meleka smrti. Dva meleka bilježe dobra i loša djela svake osobe, a meleki čuvaju ljude po Božijoj naredbi.
Meleki se ne obožavaju i nisu Božija djeca, kao što su neki vjerovali u prošlosti. Kur'an kaže da su počašćeni robovi koji ne govore prije nego što On progovori i koji postupaju po Njegovoj naredbi. Muslimani također kažu da se mole za vjernike i da meleki učestvuju u skupovima zikra i u učenju Kur'ana.
And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I will make upon the earth a successive authority." They said, "Will You place upon it one who causes corruption therein and sheds blood, while we declare Your praise and sanctify You?" Allah said, "Indeed, I know that which you do not know."
O you who have believed, protect yourselves and your families from a Fire whose fuel is people and stones, over which are [appointed] angels, harsh and severe; they do not disobey Allah in what He commands them but do what they are commanded.
The Messenger has believed in what was revealed to him from his Lord, and [so have] the believers. All of them have believed in Allah and His angels and His books and His messengers, [saying], "We make no distinction between any of His messengers." And they say, "We hear and we obey. [We seek] Your forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the [final] destination."
