The author of the site is completely drawn to the Islamic definition of Azra / Azrael, I stopped paying attention to it.
Why would you stop paying attention due to the Islamic definition?
Remember that Islam, Christianity, and Judaism are all branches of the tree begun by Abraham. Azrael in Islam (like in the other traditions) is the Angel of Death. I think he actually has a higher position in Islamic Mysticism as an archangel of one of the quadrants as well.
I tend to like the Islamic version of how he collects souls. People who live good lives are taken peacefully, but for the sinners and evil-doers Azrael jerks them violently from their physical bodies. (reminds me of some of my first Astral Projection attempts) lol.
