Did angels really fight at the Battle of Badr?

was going on how did angels fight against the hostile polytheists at Buddha ah interesting s muy interesante you see let's take this question first people you see it's interesting that the Battle of Badr okay first of all depicting the Battle of brother the companions and the Prophet the Prophet site the believers as they were then known me known they were one not in huge quantities people there's a famous number three one three three

thirteen but it's not necessary that they were three hundred thirteen they may have just been three hundred three hundred and whatever or not number but the point is they weren't they were outnumbered that part seems to be you know what the evidence clearly suggests that the army of grace were probably at least a thousand strong and the believers did not want to engage in any kind of warfare but they were prepared for it like they weren't prepared but they were you know hoping for the best but expecting the worst it was that mentality but they were hoping that they

were just able to reach the place and because the whole thing was to do with a caravan arriving and they didn't want it they didn't want it to be intercepted by the core age before they could get to the caravan and so this is what the race was - it was - the caravan now the dangers were if they if grace got there in time before them there was going to be a showdown face off and they weren't in a good position to take on because they were heavily outnumbered they were not militarily equipped very well I mean they had swords but that's it really you

know they had a few Spears a few horses they weren't really they were just apart from I mean they did have swords and things like that but they weren't compared to the other people who came Camelback and horseback and you know with all these kind of drums beating and all these people making a big hoo-ha really prepared a whole parade for war so now as it happened that or I'm cites the believers saying that they were hoping that it was not going to be a war outcome but yeah Allah says in the Quran

but Ya Allah what Allah had destined was to be and the point is that they there is a clash there is a faceoff they turn up the ratio of the now the believers do stand their ground and they fight passionately Battle of Badr is overwhelmingly a clear success for the believers and it obviously reinforces the entire faith structure and it was a very moving emotional kind of battle because one day doesn't want to you know sometimes when you're pushed against the

corner you come out of it fighting really hard so so they were kind of just fed up and it's a very and even some of the I had eat that transmit the final doors I mean not the final but the doors the final two hours before warfare of the Prophet where he says to where he makes it to either Ya Allah in toilet at Eli's father let me talk about fill up that this is all there is of the believers if they today perish you will not be worshipped on this earth it's as simple as that and it is an amazing very emotional kind

of event that takes place now later on you see a lot describes in the Quran that they were reinforced and assisted with angelic help now is this literary usage or is this actual physical descriptions many Muslims will believe that this is just literary kind of symbolic usage of language like when Allah says in the Quran for example about Redwan that when they made a pledge to avenge lost man because they thought

lost man this later on in Medina had been killed but he hadn't and the Prophet took a bay a tall red one he took a pledge till the end with some believers around him and Allah says why here told law he Foca ad him you know they put their hands on top of you and Allah placed his hand above their hand now this nobody believes that to be literal they all take that to be kind of symbolic usage to mean that God is with you so this thing when Allah says they were you know five thousand angels or you know thousands of angels we sent reinforcing you was this about

reinforcing your determination your your ability your steadfastness in the face of adversity is that what it was or were these literal kind of anthropomorphic like men like people that were there fighting so many people would feel that this was this was simply symbolic usage of languages literary usage it was not real the thing is that some Sahaba do describe later on like we have descriptions of some companions saying

oh we saw these angels come forward and fight they were you know cutting off the limbs of the people in front of us they were slice slicing through the enemy ranks ahead of us now they say and they some of them described them in color that they were kind of armored Clady this green clad armor that they were wearing and the horses were clad cladded in certain kind of armor and a green color and they had and their faces were masked and some of the companies the

prophet doesn't describe this but some people have made these descriptions now it's interesting that you see on one hand were these simply simply kind of narrow to logic stories that these companions were telling other generations after them as one would maybe at times anthropomorphize forces or determination so was it just a literary thing like storytelling was that what it was that many people may feel that other people have felt that this may have been in the

midst of the battle that's what it felt like to them that they felt that oh my god were people did I see something did I and they felt they saw these things so you know whether those things were actually happening but they felt it and that's fine so that's another into that's another interpretation now I did come across recently a rare interpretation now I'm not saying this interpretation carries any has to be has to carry any truth but it was an

interesting one and it was just intriguing I mean most likely it isn't true I don't believe it's true but I just found it interesting and I haven't looked into it so deeply but from what I came across you see some people have proposed that and and these are some kind of historians and non-muslims know and people who specialized in in kind of Persian history and things like this they have proposed and hypothesized that
