Wings are sometimes called feathers.
Allah says: 'And feathers (rîshan)' (Al-A'râf: 26).

O children of Adam, We have bestowed upon you clothing to conceal your private parts and as adornment. But the clothing of righteousness - that is best. That is from the signs of Allah that perhaps they will remember.
