Since he is a fallen angel, I'm curious if he still keeps them.

Do angels have wings?
Only cherubim and seraphim are represented with wings, Ezekiel 10:5.
In modern and late Medieval Christian thought, Lucifer is usually a fallen angel commonly associated with Satan, the embodiment of evil and enemy of God. Lucifer is generally considered, based on the influence of Christian literature and legend, to have been a prominent archangel in heaven (although some contexts say he was a cherub or a seraph), prior to having been motivated by pride to rebel against God. When the angel failed, Lucifer was cast out of heaven, along with a third of the heavenly host, and came to reside on the world.
Elaborating upon the Christian celestial hierarchy that was created by Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite, the expanding modern literature of angelology has assigned many names to the unnamed seraphim [citation needed].
Seraphiel
Metatron
Uriel
Nathanael
Gabriel
Jehoel
Chamuel (Kemuel, Shemuel)
Lucifer
Satan
Abaddon
Asmodeus
Astaroth
Leviathan
Samael
Semyazza
Therefore Lucifer or Satan was a seraphim and there is no reference of his wings having been stripped.

Good question.
Not all angels have wings. The Bible describes several (about 6 or 7) different types of angels. Lucifer was a Seriphim I believe. Therefore, he would have wings. I'm not too sure as to if he lost them when he fell from grace. My bet is that he didn't. there's no logical reason why he would.

No one knows for sure. Only the people in hell know. So ask God when you get to Heaven.
And I wouldn't say he's a fallen angel. How I've learned the tale was that when Lucifer (Satan) was alive on Earth, he believed he was more powerful than God. God did not let him in Heaven so He had to put him somewhere else. Satan was the first one in hell and now controls it. So he was never really an angel. Satan was just the first person to go to hell.

no, Satan does not have wings at all, never did.
There are certain angels that do, but Satan has not been described as having wings, he is a spirit, and thus does not need wings.
Seraphs occupy a very high position in God’s arrangement. They serve as attendants at God’s throne. Their assignment includes declaring God’s holiness and keeping his people spiritually clean
(THESE ONES HAVE 6 WINGS)
Cherubs are associated with God’s throne and uphold Jehovah’s Majesty

yeas... but they are more like bat wings then angel wings
ignore them there are always critics :-)
it is a very good question but nobody knows the answer. religion is based on faith... belief in the unknown. u are asking a very touchy question to some.
also in many pictures he is depicted with wings... as are gargoyles and many mid evil beings. I even recall seeing pictures of the "fallen angel" cowering before god... he had wings.

I don't know about any of you, but I haven't seen Satan lately, I wouldn't know for certain/ I'd guess he doesn't.
Of course, I don't really care since im an Atheistic Satanist.
Hail Satan.

His wings are "clipped" meaning he is not longer an angel but he still physically has his wings because they are a part of his anatomy.

I don't know if you can prove that out of the Bible. In Revelations he is known as a dragon but even then there is no mention of wings.

Angels don't have wings. That's Babylonian spirits.
