Artiya'il

No cosmogonic origin, genealogy, or hierarchical placement is provided in the cited sources. The figure appears within hadith-related narrative material (noted in compilations associated with Jalal al-Din al-Suyuti) as an angelic being who intervenes in human emotional distress, but the texts do not supply an origin story or broader theological status beyond that remedial role.

In the attested hadith-related account Artiya'il is reported to have 'come down in the shape of a bird.' No further species identification, coloration, size, or additional physical details are provided in the cited materials; the bird-form is the sole descriptive element recorded in the available excerpts.

The only attested function in the cited sources is that Artiya'il relieves or 'removes' human grief, anxiety, or memories of distress. In the recorded narrative he directly appears to an anxious person (Abu Muslim al-Khawlani awaiting news from Byzantium), introduces himself as the angel who removes anxiety-related memories, and thereby provides comfort. The sources do not ascribe other powers (such as fate-altering, judicial, or physical-healing abilities) nor do they describe broader behaviors beyond this remedial intervention.
