Question

Which work was angel Michael entrusted by Allah? Why did Allah specifically take his name in surah 2 verse 98 along with Gabriel? Who were his enemies which Allah is referring to in the verse?

Answer

Mikaael is assigned to sustenance, rain, etc.

Allah Ta`ala did not reveal the reasons to us. We don't see the need to investigate things that He has not disclosed to us.

Those who hate anyone of them whether it Allah Ta`ala or any nabi and rasool that Allah appointed.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
