According to Islamic teachings, angels are loyal servants of Allah. They are created from light and are completely obedient to Allah's commands. Angels have no free will and are incapable of committing sins. They perform various tasks assigned to them by Allah, such as delivering messages, recording human deeds, and guarding the believers. Angels are not like human beings or jinns, and they are not divine in nature. Rather, they are a unique creation of Allah, existing solely to serve and worship Him.
