51:32.
Commentary:
When Abraham realized that the real mission of these messengers was not to give to him the glad tidings of the birth of a son—for if it had been so, they would not have looked sad—but that they had come on some momentous mission, he hastened to enquire of them their real business. This question of Abraham also shows that he regarded the messengers to be mere human beings and not angels. For if he had considered them to be angels, he would not have been surprised at their refusal to partake of food, as he would have known that angels do not eat food. As, however, he considered them to be human beings, their refusal to partake of the food offered to them made him apprehensive that a grievous affair was weighing upon their minds (11:70, 71).

By using the word al-Mursalun (messengers), the Qur’an hints that the bearers of the message were humans. The Bible, however, sometimes mentions them as men (Gen. 18: 2, 16, 22) and sometimes as angels (Gen. 19: 11, 15).
