My secret belief

As per general understanding these ‘guests of Ibrahim’ are considered angels, most likely 2 in number. I dispute that notion. I believe they were our friends from outer space.

I have my reasons for such belief.

1. These people are reffered as ‘guests’ , and then ‘messengers’ If you read this chapter from begining there is mention of angels. Notice the different words used in different tales.

2. Notice the words uttered by prophet Ibrahim (pbuh)“**He said: Surely we are afraid of you.” **It appears that these two gentlemen were wearing some smart dresses or their physical features were some what different that normal human beings

3. it appears that these people offered same treatment to prophet ibrahim’s wife as was rendered to Hazrat Mariyam later on.

Now the passage continues:

Notice the similar expression uttered by prophet lut (pbuh)
**“He said: Surely you are an unknown people.” **
Both prophets of Allah found these people somewhat strange, and unknown. And Allah has recorded their unfamilarity with these people in holy quran. I believe there he is trying to tell us some thing. Prophets usually are quite familliar with angels.

I was hesitating to jump in here but well. Code sahab, nothing wrong with the imagination running wild but there is plenty of wrong done went logical and proper checks are not put on it.

I just wanted to ask you to research the Quran a little more based on this post of yours. If you would, you’ll find the answer, which you have substituted your fantastical assumption for. Why was Ibrahim AS afraid of them? Not because they looked like aliens, infact they did not, they were angels disguised in human form and his suspicion about them as strangers did not bother him util they refused his hospitality, not because they were dressed in alien suits. You should read Surah Hud. I’ll post the relevant verses here that refute your assumption with clear scriptural evidence:

11:69 There came Our messengers to Abraham with glad tidings. They said, “Peace!” He answered, “Peace!” and hastened to entertain them with a roasted calf.
11:70 But when he saw their hands went not towards the (meal), he felt some mistrust of them, and conceived a fear of them. They said: “Fear not: We have been sent against the people of Lut.”
11:71 And his wife was standing (there), and she laughed: But we gave her glad tidings of Isaac, and after him, of Jacob.
11:72 She said: “Alas for me! shall I bear a child, seeing I am an old woman, and my husband here is an old man? That would indeed be a wonderful thing!”
11:73 They said: “Dost thou wonder at Allah’s decree? The grace of Allah and His blessings on you, o ye people of the house! for He is indeed worthy of all praise, full of all glory!”
11:74 When fear had passed from (the mind of) Abraham and the glad tidings had reached him, he began to plead with us for Lut’s people.
11:75 For Abraham was, without doubt, forbearing (of faults), compassionate, and given to look to Allah.

If you read the Arabic for verse 69, they are refered to as Rusuluna, which is for messengers of Allah SWT. If you read, only after they refused Ibrahim AS hospitality did he AS become apprehensive. Now why on earth would he be offering food to aliens? Its spelled in very straight and simple terms when he became apprehensive.

Its important to cross check your wild imaginative theories with teh Quran and Inshallah! you will find the rebuttals on your own.
