Bearers of the Throne

Also known as the hamlat al-arsh. Bearers of the Throne are a group of angels in Islam.

The Quran mentions them in Quran 40:7 & Quran 69:17. They’re mentioned in the al-Sahifa al-Sajjadyya, a book of prayers to Ali ibn Husayn Zayn al-Abidin. Ali, also known as Zayn al-Abidin, was the great-grandson of the Islamic prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He was the 4th Imam in Shia Islam.

In Islamic tradition, the Hamalat al-Arsh are a group of angels whose sole task is to bear the Throne of God. The angels of the throne are the 1st angels God created. The number of these angels is 4. But on the Day of Resurrection, they’ll increase their numbers to 8.

They’re often portrayed in zoomorphic forms. Each of those different anthropomorphic angels has 4 faces of a human, bull, vulture, & lion. They are also described with 6 wings & 4 faces.

The bearers of the throne are shaped like a rooster, with their feet on the Earth & their nape supporting the Throne of God in the highest sky.

These 4 angels are also held to be created from 4 different elements: light, fire, water, & mercy. They’re so large that a journey from their earlobes to their shoulders would take 700 years.

The archangel Israfil is 1 of the bearers of the throne.

They’re comparable to the seraphim in the Book of Revelation.

#عيد_الغدير عيد الله الاكبر في 18 ذي الحجة سنة 10 هـ، في غدير خم، رفع النبي محمد صلى الله عليه واله وسلم يد الامام علي عليه السلام وقال: "مَن كُنتُ مَولاهُ فَهذا عَلِيٌّ مَولاه" ونصبه اميراً للمؤمنين.
قال الله تعالى: ﴿ الْيَوْمَ أَكْمَلْتُ لَكُمْ دِينَكُمْ وَأَتْمَمْتُ عَلَيْكُمْ نِعْمَتِي وَرَضِيتُ لَكُمُ الإِسْلامَ دِيناً ﴾ . ( سورة المائدة :3 ) .

It would be in the interest of GCC countries to quit US support because Israel does not give a damn. They should realign with Iran, remain neutral and call upon all US bases to leave their countries. This hangup over Sunni-Shia' beliefs shuld give way to Muslim unity. #GCC2026 #Iran #Sunnis #Shia
