Help through Angels

Argument 6:

One of the teachings of the thirteenth rukã (section) of the sãrah of }l-i Imran is that God helped mu’mins through angels on the occasion of the battle of Badr. We should reflect on this event and conclude that had this spiritual help been a special attribute of God which could not be through means other than Himself, or that it had been a special act of God in which nobody else had shared, then the angels would not have interfered and the Qur’an would not have mentioned that the mu’mins were helped through angels. Because angels are not God. And only God is the One Who is the Lord of the worlds. But what can be done about a person who pays no heed to reality. The same thing is mentioned at the end of the first ruku of the surah of Anfal (that during this battle, help and succour were given to the Muslims through the angels. One thing is common in both these two places and that is the peace of heart of the group of Muslims, which was received on the one hand by the immediate victory through the help of the angels, and on the other, by knowing that there are also such miraculous means of spiritual help.
