In the Name of ALLAH the Most Beneficent and the Most Merciful
Allaah's messenger said:
“Every one of you has been assigned a companion from among the jinn and one from the angels…” Collected by Ahmad in al-Musnad and Sahih Muslim, vol. 4, p. 1472, no. 6758).
These angels are entrusted with the responsibility of guiding and advising each individual, by Allaah’s will, to righteousness.
The Qur’aan also speaks about the guardian angels in Soorah Ar-Ra‘d, [13:11]
“For each [person] there are [angels] in succession before and behind him. They guard him by Allaah’s command…”
We are all sinful. The Prophet salla Allahu alaihi wa sallam said: The angel on the left does not write down anything until six hours have passed after a Muslim does a bad deed. If he regrets it and asks Allah for forgiveness, he casts it aside [does not write it down], otherwise he writes down one (sayi’ah/bad deed).” This means that when you sin, you have 6 hours to repent and ask Allah for forgiveness. Therefore, when you feel weak and fall into sin, repent immediately, show Allah your remorse and ask Him for forgiveness and He will forgive you. If you also add to that good deeds, that would increae your chances. Allah says: Verily, the good deeds remove the evil deeds.
