<p>This study examines the discourse on the possibility of seeing angels by non-prophets from the perspectives of hadith and Islamic theology, focusing on the views of Ibn Hajar al-Haitami in <em data-start="401" data-end="421">Fatawa Hadithiyyah</em> and their comparison with al-Ghazali's <em data-start="461" data-end="481">Ihya' 'Ulum al-Din</em>. The study is motivated by the emergence of various claims of spiritual experiences in society that require scholarly clarification based on the Islamic intellectual tradition. This research employed a qualitative library research design using a descriptive-comparative approach. Data were collected from primary and secondary sources and analyzed through the stages of description, comparison, and interpretation. The findings indicate that both Ibn Hajar al-Haitami and al-Ghazali affirm that seeing angels by non-prophets is possible (<em data-start="1020" data-end="1028">mumkin</em>) and falls within the category of saintly miracles (<em data-start="1081" data-end="1090">karamah</em>). However, they differ in their approaches. Ibn Hajar emphasizes divine will within a hadith-theological framework, whereas al-Ghazali highlights inner spiritual purification through the concept of <em data-start="1289" data-end="1296">kashf</em> within a Sufi paradigm. The study concludes that such experiences do not contradict Islamic theology as long as they are understood within proper theological boundaries, while providing a scholarly framework for evaluating contemporary spiritual claims in Muslim society.</p>Ali Yusuf MuzakiMuhammad Fatkhun NiamMuhammad SyafiiqAgus SalimMuh.
