1432 Angel of Death ENT_ISR_ANGEL_OF_DEATH received_as Azrail ENT_ISL_AZRAIL medium The Islamic angel Azrail (Izra'il, the Angel of Death) is the named reception of the Israelite/Jewish Angel of Death tradition. The name Azrael appears in post-Talmudic Jewish literature; the Quran refers to "the angel of death appointed over you" (32:11) without naming him; the name Azrail becomes standard in Islamic theological and hadith tradition. The functional role (taking souls at death) is continuous from the Israelite Angel of Death through Talmudic tradition to the Islamic Azrail.
