God only communicates behind a veil or sends a Messenger be it an Angel (chosen hidden being) or Human.
I would neither trust the veil nor the Angel and it is impossible in this scenario to know it's from God per the paradigm of my understanding of Quran.
Read the 15th Chapter of Quran.
Look at the question of "Why not an Angel" and look Abraham being "terrified" of the "guests" who he knew were Messengers and Angels, yet was terrified and had to assure himself they were trustworthy hidden beings who came in the form of mortals (outward temporal form for a short time).
Look at how Lot says "You are an unknown people".
Even Prophets don't trust Angels blindly. They test them and make sure and only once they are assured and at peace with the vision they have of them and know they are trust worthy spirits from God, do they believe in their messages.
Gabriel like Jesus is a instance of the holy spirit.
You can test such beings both outwardly and inwardly at that time, but in our time, we are left with legacy of knowledge.
If Quran says crap, I won't testify to it.
