Answer Details

After the Battle of Yamama, where many companions who had memorized the Qur'an were killed, Umar approached Abu Bakr, expressing his concern that the Qur'an might be lost.

Initially, Abu Bakr was hesitant, as the Prophet had not undertaken such a task during his lifetime. However, after careful consideration and persuasion by Umar, he agreed to the proposal for the safety and preservation of the Qur'an. Abu Bakr then appointed Zayd ibn Thabit, a trusted scribe of the Prophet, to undertake the task of gathering and compiling the Qur'an from various written fragments and the memories of those who had memorized it.

Question 28 Report
Angels were created from
Answer Details
According to many religious beliefs, especially in Islamic tradition, **angels were created from light**. This concept is deeply rooted in teachings and texts that describe angels as beings that are pure, formless, and not bound by physical constraints like humans. They do not possess a bodily form that requires sustenance or rest. Their creation from light symbolizes purity, a state free from the desires and imperfections that come with physical material like dust, clay, or fire.
In contrast, other beings in religious narratives are often created from different substances to highlight their unique attributes. For instance, humans are often described as being created from **dust or clay**, indicating our tangible, earthy nature, connected to the physical world. Alternatively, beings like jinn in Islamic tradition are said to have been created from **smokeless fire**, which signifies their ethereal and energetic attributes.
Thus, in summary, angels, in their traditional description, are considered to be **created from light**, marking them as entities that are inherently close to divinity and distinct from the physical realm inhabited by other creatures like humans or jinn.
