It is a pity that Pundit Dayanand has raised an objection against the system of angels. Would that he had knowledge of God’s physical and spiritual systems so that instead of raising objections he would have been convinced of the excellencies of the teaching of the Qur’an, which presents a correct and true picture of the law of nature.

It is asked that if angels are the regulators and distributors of matters, then how is it that our plans succeed and most matters are concluded according to our will through our projects and plans? The answer is that our projects and plans are not independent of the mediation of angels and their suggestions and revelation. The functions that the angels perform by the command of God Almighty, they perform through persons who are naturally inclined towards acceptance of the suggestions of angels. For instance, when the angels desire to bring down rain upon a field, or a village, or a country with God’s command, they cannot themselves become water nor can they make fire to perform the function of water, but they guide the
mysteries should become obvious and visible to the eyes of the world for if they had been obvious there would have been no merit in believing in them.
