If you pick up any book discussing Islam or islamic theology, you will probably find angels in it - one never thinks much about them, and they often seem marginal. However, whether real or a simple literary device, what are the angels' real functions in a text? This study proposes to outline their functions, and more specifically what classical Sufi literature (7th-12th century CE) makes of them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Louise Gallorini\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004716076\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004716070\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/03\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Louise Gallorini","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47305564979455,"sku":"9789004716070","price":141.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_58bb98ce-faa6-4dff-957f-06914d10e6b2.jpg?v=1758831236","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-functions-of-angels-in-louise-gallorini-9789004716070","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
