Zabaniyah

The Zabaniyah (Arabic: الزبانية, romanizedzabāniyya) is the name of a group of angels in Islam who are tasked to torture the sinners in hell.[1][2][3][4] They are mentioned appeared in many verses in Quran,[Quran 1] With various names such as "Nineteen angels of Hell",[Quran 2] "Angels of punishment",[Quran 3] "Guardians of Hell",[5] "Wardens of hell" (Arabic: خَزَنَةِ جَهَنَّمَ, romanizedkhazanati jahannam[6]), and "Angels of hell" or "The keepers".[Quran 4][7]

As angels, the Zabaniyah are, despite their gruesome appearance and actions, ultimately subordinate to God,[8]: 82  and thus their punishments are considered in Islamic theology as just.[9]

According to Al-Qurtubi, Zabaniyah is a plural name a group of an angel.[10][11] According to the Quran and the ahadith, the Zabaniyah are nineteen in number[12] and Maalik is their leader.[13][14][15]
