For each human being, there are four angels who record all their good and bad acts. Two of them come at night and the other two come during the day. They are called ‘kiraman katibin’ (incorruptible scribes) or ‘hafaza’ (record-keeping) angels. According to another report, hafaza angels are different from kiraman katibin. The angel on one’s right side is superior to the one on the left and records the good deeds. The one on the left writes down the evil deeds. There are angels who will torture disbelievers and disobedient Muslims in their graves, and angels who will ask questions in graves. The questioning angels are called ‘munkar’ and ‘nakir’. Angels who will question Muslims are also called ‘mubashshir’ and ‘bashir’ (good news givers).
