In Islam, God teaches us that angels do not have free will , therefore, they have no ability to betray God , they always obey God. There are however a 3rd kind of creations called jinns, they have free will just like humans and they can be very bad, Shaytan (the devil) is said to be one of the jinns in the Holy Quran.

Yes. For God knows all. However in a personal belief, I say God gave them the choice then closed the doors to them. So that no angel could rebel afterwards. Is this possible that angels could just forget about rebellion? Yes because all things are possible for God. It's just a personal belief.
I hope I have helped. In Jesus name. Amen.
Know this...There is only one true God and you will see the Son of God returning on the clouds.

I don't know of any angels that actually betrayed God. Yes, there is the archangel Lucifer, however, I've come across several sources that have commented that Lucifer never actually "fell" or betrayed God. Instead, he was sent by God to be on earth and a means of testing the true faith of people. And just over time, he was changed into the devil. Is this true? Is there actually a Lucifer at all? I don't know. That's just what I heard.

If he did then why did he allow such a betrayal to occur? Does he enjoy a blasphemous slap to the face? Would it not be a challenge to his authority? Also, if he is truly all forgiving why should a human, let alone an angel, his right hand, to be cast into a place of torment developed by the Catholic Church in the fourteenth century, even if they are not humble enough to ask forgiveness?

Of course He knew, but what point is free will if you're never allowed to use it? The angels got a chance to choose, to exercise their choice, even if some of them did make the wrong decision. Very much like us, we all have a choice, but how many of us choose the wrong path? God knows what's going to happen, but He still gives us the choice. If He changed the outcome because of His knowledge of what would happen, our free will would mean nothing.

As a matter of fact he didn't, as stated in the Old Testament book of Leroy, 4.12, "The Lord dideth work amongst the taters of his vast garden for 40 days and 39 nights, thus He not knoweth of the betrayal of the sinister angels, nor what they doeth it for".

why would that alone make you NOT beleive in a GOD..you seem to be searching for a reason not to believe at all..why does GOD'S knowlege of betrayal by the angels determine your faith??what if he knew and allowed it to see who was truly on his side?? it happened nonetheless and you are hung up on his motivation?? why..it makes no sense to put so much stock into that aspect of GOD..alone

Judas was a apostle and he knew that he was going to betray him? It had to happen for Jesus to die on the cross, I often wondered if Judas was chosen to betray by Jesus or did Judas pick the betrayal, same would go with Lucifer the devil

Then what good will talking to you do? If God is "making" you a product of your own perceptions I don't want to be working against God!

Yes he did. That's why many angels were cast down. He knows all and sees all.
