Irfan (Volume - 2) / IRFAAN-2

293-294

Allah Almighty says: When you sought help of your Lord and He answered you (saying): I will help you with a thousand of the Angels, rank on rank. Allah appointed it only as good tidings, and that your hearts thereby might be at rest. Victory comes only by the help of Allah. Lo! Allah is Mighty, Wise (8:9-10)

The above-mentioned heavenly help was sent down just to give solace and comfort the hearts of the Muslims. Here the Angels were not charged to fight. At another occasion Allah Almighty says:

When your Lord inspired the Angels, (saying:) I am with you. So make those who believe stand firm. I will throw fear into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Then smite the necks and smite of them each finger (8:12)

?

Here, the sleeve of the Resources (to implement) has been removed from the Hand of Ability and help has been given in this way. Thus, the Companions Radhi-ya-Allahu Ta-aala Anhum say that on such occasions, they used to see the Angels in appearance of the unknown people fighting along with them against the enemies of Islam and such times were also experienced that they tried to hit a Kaafir but the head of the Kaafir was beheaded prior to their attempt. Thus, these kinds of incidents were commonly reported in the Battles fought under the leadership of the Holy Prophet Sal Allahu Alaihe Wa Aa-lehee Wa-sallam and some People the Masters of Inwardly Intuition (and insight) used to see the Angels descending from heaven riding piebald horses and fighting along with them against the Kuffaar in the battlefield at many times and in many authentic reports, the Angels have been reported to be witnessed in this way. In addition, the Holy Quran is full of the accounts of such kinds that whenever the chosen bondmen of Allah Almighty like the Messengers Alaihimus-Salaam and Aulia Rahmatu-Allah Ta'ala Alaihim sought Allah's help at the occasions of the difficult ventures and battles, Allah Almighty has extended His help through charging His Invisible Subtle Creatures like Angels and Spirits for their help at the site.

The methods and fashions of this help had been multifarious. At instances when the people, after believing in the Messengers (of Allah) Alaihimus-Salaam, used to join them in their mission and used to battle with the Kuffaar, Allah Almighty used to send down Angels from heavens for their help by virtue of those, even a few Muslims used to dominate over ten times bigger armies of the Kuffaar as is evident from the afore-mentioned verses. On the other hand, when the total nation of the people had become corrupt and became flagrant and turned deniers with force, at such occasions, Allah Almighty destroyed these adversaries through some widespread divine disaster as was the case with the people of Hazrat Nooh Alaihis-Salaam which was ruined by a universal Great Flood. The hopeless Pharaoh was killed by drowning him with his army in the waves of the river Nile. Three hundred townships of the nation of Hazrat Loot Alaihis-Salaam were cleaned out by earthquake and seismic action. The people of Aad, Samood and Hazrat Saleh Alaihis-Salaam were wiped out by the natural disasters of similar kinds.

Even now the Invisible Depots and Heavenly Magazines are full with the violent powers of even furious nature in front of which the Atomic Bombs and Hydrogen Bombs have no reality. However, neither now exist on the face of earth such Chosen and Beloved Persons nor are seen the intrepid-devotee Momineen there for which Allah Almighty should find it expedient to tear the cover of the Resources (to implement) and display the might of the force of His Hand of Ability. Today by the hands of our selfish political and government leaders, that is, these so called shadows of God, the cause of Islam is being ruined. Nowadays, the world is full of the human-like beasts and animals. Seldom is the case when a human being is seen in the real and original terms

I am not saying this as per my personal opinion but Allah Almighty Himself says:
