Are there messengers from the angels other than Jibril (peace be upon him)?
Allah has messenger angels, among them Gabriel, Michael, Israfil, and the Angel of Death. Other angels besides Gabriel sometimes descended with revelation upon the prophets, such as the descent of an angel who had never descended before that day, to give the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, glad tidings of two lights: the Opening of the Book (Al-Fatihah) and the concluding verses of Surat Al-Baqarah. Another angel also descended, who had never descended to Earth before that night, to greet him and inform him that Al- and Al-Husayn are the masters of the youth of Paradise, and that Fatimah is the master of the women of Paradise. Angels also descend upon others besides messengers, such as righteous believers, to give them glad tidings of Paradise at the time of their death.
