BELIEVE IN THE SACRED BOOKS

The Arabic word «kitab» comes from the word «kitaba», which means «to write». «Inscription» means «page with inscription.» And the «Holy Books» are the books and pages containing the words of Allah, revealed to the messengers of Allah. These books were revealed either in written form (like the Torah) or in the form of revelation written after revelation. In Islam, belief in the books of God is considered a condition of faith. A person who does not believe in books is considered an unbeliever. Allah says in the book: «Whoever does not believe in God, his angels, his books, his messengers and the last day is in great error!» (Surah Nisa, verse 136). In Islam, holy books are called: Pages revealed by God to Abraham and Moses. The Book of the Torah is the greatest book of the generation of Israel, revealed to the prophet Moses. The Book of Psalms is a book revealed to the Prophet David. The Bible is the book revealed to Jesus, the son of Mary. Some scholars believe that the Bible differs from the Torah only in certain places in which the sons of Israel argued. The Holy Quran is the last book of Allah revealed to the Prophet Muhammad. According to Islamic belief, books such as the Torah and the Bible were sent by Allah, but people made various changes to them and changed their meaning, and the Quran is considered to be preserved from changes. Allah says: «Verily We have sent down this remembrance and indeed We preserve it» (Surah Hijr, 8).

BELIEVE IN ANGELS AND JINNS

Angels comes from Arabic word «send». In the religion of Islam, angels are completely subordinate to Allah; they are creatures that carry out any of His commands and convey revelations to messengers. The Holy Quran says about angels: «They fear their Lord above themselves and do what they are commanded» (Sura Nahl, 50) Prophet Muhammad about angels: «Angels were created from light, jinn were created from fire, and Adam was created from what was told to you.» Sahih Muslim (2996). Imam al-Bayhaqi spoke about belief in angels: Believing that they exist, recognizing their status and believing that they are servants of Allah, like humans and jinn. Among them, God sends messengers, sets up the throne of God, oversees heaven and hell, and so on. Praying to angels and asking them for help is strictly prohibited. Allah says: «He does not command you to make angels and prophets gods. Will He command you to disbelieve after you become Muslims?» (Sura Ali Imran, 80). The names of angels in Islam are as follows: Gabriel: one of the greatest angels who brought revelations and holy books to the prophets. Mikael is responsible for nature, Israfil is the function of Israfil (a.s.) to blow the horn (twice) to kill all living things, and then resurrect all dead creatures (including people, jinn, angels, etc.). Malik and Ridwan – Guardians of Paradise. Malak ul-Maut is an angel who takes the soul of a living being. Kiroman Katibin is the name given to two angels who record without error the deeds of every person in this world. Munkar and Nakir are two angels who ask questions to a man who has run out of salt in the world and has gone to his grave. Hamala ul-arsh is the name given to the 8 angels who bear the Throne, the greatest of God’s creations.
