The verses 79:2-4 of Surah An-Nazi'at describe a series of swift and varied motions that, according to the majority of classical Islamic scholars, pertain to the actions of angels. These verses are understood to depict the gentle removal of believers' souls, the gliding of angels through the heavens, and their racing to carry out God's commands. While the term 'proper motion' is a modern astronomical concept not found in classical exegesis, the verses do allude to celestial and angelic movement, which has been a subject of contemplation in Islamic thought. The primary focus of classical interpretations, however, remains on the unseen world of angels and their role in the divine plan, particularly in the context of the soul's journey from this life to the next.
