Transliteration:( yakhaafoona Rabbahum min fawqihim wa yaf'aloona maa yu'maroon (section 6) (make sajda) )
104. From this emerge two issues:
1. Angels are bound to duty, but their orders are in accordance to their suitability.Â
2. They are totally free of any disobedience. Haroot and Maroot only indulged in sin after their angelic state had ended and were given human power. Thus, that incident is not against the innocence of angels. It should be remembered that in Islam only Prophets and angels are innocent and no one else. However, some saints too are under the protective custody of Allah Almighty.
