Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
Angels die according to text and consensus, and the Angel of Death is responsible for taking their souls. The Angel of Death alone will die. No authentic text has been reported detailing the time of their death. There is no authentic text detailing the death of angels, so no definitive statement can be made about any of these possibilities. As for their remaining alive after the reckoning, many verses indicate this, mentioning conversations between the inhabitants of Hell and the angels, and the entry of angels to the inhabitants of Paradise.
