Description

In Islamic traditions, The eight Hamalat al-Arsh are group of angels who bearing the Throne of God.[5] Ibn Abbas has said that when the Day of resurrection come, the numbers of the Bearers of the throne will be added from four to eight angels.[6] The similar narrations also came from various modern contemporary scholars such as Abdul-Rahman al-Sa'di, Wahbah al-Zuhayli, and Umar Sulaiman Al-Ashqar, about Quran chapter Al-Haqqa verse Шаблон:Cite Quran[7]

they are often portrayed in zoomorphic forms. According to al-Suyuti, the bearer of thrones numbered four angels, which each of them has different body shape resembling different creatures: a vulture, a bull, a lion and a human, with four wings.[8]

Al-Suyuti also quoted Wahb ibn Munabbih, and Al-Bayhaqi in book of al Asma' wa al Sifat, that each of those different anthropomorphic angels has four faces of a human, bull, vulture, and lion.[8] Other hadiths describes them with six wings and four faces.[9] Meanwhile, according to a hadith transmitted from At-Targhib wat-Tarhib authored by ʻAbd al-ʻAẓīm ibn ʻAbd al-Qawī al-Mundhirī, the bearers of the throne shaped like a rooster, with their feet on the earth and their nape supporting the Throne of God in the highest sky.[Notes 1] a number modern Islamic scholars from Imam Mohammad Ibn Saud Islamic University, and other institutes in Yemen and Mauritania also agreed the soundness of this hadith by quoting the commentary from Ibn Abi al-Izz who supported this narrative.[10]

These four angels are also held to be created from four different elements: light, fire, water, and mercy.Шаблон:Citation needed It is also said they are so large that a journey from their earlobes to their shoulders would take seven hundred years.[11] According to various Islamic tafsir scholars which compiled by Islamic University of Madinah and Indonesian religious ministry, the number of these angels will be added from four into eight angels during the Day of Resurrection.[12] This interpretation is based on Qur'an chapter Al-Haqqa Шаблон:Cite quran.[12]
