Nāzi'āt (Template:Lang-ar, pluckers) and Nāshiṭāt (Template:Lang-ar, drawers) are two classes of death angels subordinate to Azra'il in Islam, responsible for taking the souls of the dead. While Nāzi'āt are commissioned to take the lives of unbelievers forcefully, the Nāshiṭāt take believers gently.[1]
Ibn Kathir interpreted Al-Anfal 8:50 as the angels who takes the soul of unbelievers brought Fires of Hell with them to torture the soul they have taken.[2] Meanwhile, Al-Tabari also interpreted similarly, while also giving addendum interpretations from Muhammad bin Al-Muthanna, Ibn Waki', Mujahid ibn Jabr, and Ibn Abbas among others; that those angels will also smashing the face of back of the unbeliever's soul while doing their task.[3]
