Having control over the angels

· 27 Muharram 1441 AH1 min readEnglish

Question

I met few people who claim to have possession over angels. According to them Allah has created an angel (Muwakkil) of each word of Quran. If we recite verses of Quran in a specified manner and count over a specific number of days approximately 41. We can control angels that are allocated to that verses. Is it permissible? What is the ruling of Islam if an individual practice it?

Answer

This is false. No person can possess angels and malaaikah.

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