    Imam Ali (AS) - “Allah gave Angels intellect without desires and gave animals desires without intellect, so if a human prefers intellect over desires has become better than the angel and if a human prefers desires over intellect has become worse than the animal”

    It is important to take revelation and inspiration literally and contextually. The Ancient Egyptians, Hindus, and Babylonians believed in gendered light beings, but lacked support from their tradition, except from the conclusions of scholars and priests. It is important to distinguish between what attracts or repels other creations and that done to invoke or evoke them.

    Salam dear Syed there is another hadith that whenever a believer touches another believer or consummates they are covered by 70,000 angels … is it Imam Baqir ( as) ? Why do you think this number is applied for the number of angels as you stated as above ? And how often this number is spoken of? What of this number prior to Imam Sadiq (as)?

    Alaykum Salaam. Numerology in the narrations is a topic in itself which has been covered by some research scholars.

    A narration says souls r the head of an angel, won't that make that angel above Gabriel? Coz the soul of prophet Muhammad is amongst it?
