The answer

Angels belong to the realm of the Unseen. They were created from light, possess wings in pairs, threes, and fours, have immense strength, and a beautiful form. They are obedient to Allah, glorifying Him night and day without ceasing. One must believe only what is stated in the texts and not delve into modalities for which there is no evidence, and dismiss thoughts that lack proof. Every hidden matter is entrusted to the knowledge of Allah Almighty. However, there is no harm in contemplating the attributes mentioned concerning them.
