EXISTENCE OF JINNS
Why did Allah created jinns and mankind?
When we say “Jinn” we think of a horror face & scary monster. We get scared of them! But in reality we should NOT be scared of them.
IF SOMEONE TELLS YOU JINN LIVES UNDER THIS TREE
We get scared of going there, but they are everywhere. So, how can we go anywhere without this fear of being harmed? Are you going to fear someone who has a gun in his hand, standing on the door? But if you are told, he is a policeman with a gun. So, are you still going to fear him?
WHAT IS A REAL DEFINITION OF JINN?
A creation which exists but is not visible to us. JANEEN is a child in a woman’s womb, which exits but cannot be seen. JUNNA is a shield, armor behind which a man hides himself. A crazy man is called MAJNOON, an illness which is not visible.
It is not exorcism shown in movies, novels, or Horror dramas. These creatures are present. But fearing them in a way that intimidates us might not be so useful for our health.
VERSES WHICH TELL US ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF JINNS:
The Creation of Humans and Jinns
Surah Rahman;15 «خُلِقَتِ الْمَلَائِكَةُ مِنْ نُورٍ، وَخُلِقَ الْجَانُّ مِنْ مَارِجٍ مِنْ نَارٍ، وَخُلِقَ آدَمُ مِمَّا وُصِفَ لَكُم»
Allah mentions that He created mankind from clay, like that used in pottery, and created the Jinns from the tip of the flame of a smokeless fire.
We all are Adam Alayhis Salam generations. In the same way Jinns are from Iblees.
Surah Al Hijr: 27 وَٱلْجَآنَّ خَلَقْنَـٰهُ مِن قَبْلُ مِن نَّارِ ٱلسَّمُومِ
As for the jinn, We created them earlier from smokeless fire.
A person inflicted with Magic can see jinns or hallucinate them. Or see them in an animal form (snakes, black cat, dogs, lions, tigers etc)
Surah Ad-Dhariyat: 56 وَٱلْجَآنَّ خَلَقْنَـٰهُ مِن قَبْلُ مِن نَّارِ ٱلسَّمُومِ
I did not create jinn and humans except to worship Me.
Surah Jinn: 1 Why did Allah create Jinn?
قُلْ أُوحِىَ إِلَىَّ أَنَّهُ ٱسْتَمَعَ نَفَرٌۭ مِّنَ ٱلْجِنِّ فَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا سَمِعْنَا قُرْءَانًا عَجَبًۭا
Say, [O Muhammad], “It has been revealed to me that a group of the jinn listened and said, ‘Indeed, we have heard an amazing Qur’an.
Nabi Salalahu Alayhe waslm was told by Allah that Jinn heard your Quran. Muhammad salalahu alayhe waslm was directly told through revealation that jinns were listening to your recitation of Quran. Jinns said this Quran does not sound like a human-written-book, Jinns said this Book is calling us to Rushd and Guidance.
JINNS ACCEPTED THE MESSAGE OF QURAN as before they were kafir -or- did not believe in Allah. Hence, a Dawa to jinns is sunnah. This Ayah was revealed in Wadi-e-Nakhla (Nakhla valley) where The Prophet Muhammad Salalahu Alayhi waslm gathered everyone for Fajr prayer. Jinns sit on one another and could reach till the 7th sky. Would listen to Allah’s commands being sent down on the sky. They would then whisper these commands to a sorcerer or magician (astrologer or palmist etc), mixing 1 of it’s truth in 99 lies.
When Quran was revealed, a shooting star was seen in the sky, those are angels going after the jinns with blazing fire, warding them off their stealing information.
The Master of those jinns asked his slave jinns, what has changed in the skies? And these jinns who heard Prophet salalahu Alayhe waslm reciting Quran understood, that the last Prophet has arrived. The Last Prophecy has begun. And this is the reason why the skies are now closed on us, and angels are guarding the information coming from Allah
When we ask jinns, during a Ruqya treatment to accept Islam, sometimes a muslim Jinn start crying and says “I am helpless” if you can get rid of the magic, I can be free. After listening to the Quran from Prophet Muhammad salalahu alayhe waslm, Jinn said How foolish we were, we said Allah has a daughter, wife, or sons Naodubillah! How can someone be so dishonest? to associate partners with Allah. (Surah-Jinn)
A lot of Jinns when they talk to humans, they say ALLAH DID WRONG WITH IBLEES. They are sympathizing with Iblees and going against Allah Naodubillah!
When Jinns witness human beings getting scared of them, they become more powerful. They laugh at humans and take pride on their power to induce fear in the heart of human being.
When we leave Allah’s Protection & ask jinns for protection, they become more strong. We use threads, ta’veez, lemons & chillies for protection!
Al-Ahqaf – 29
Abdullah bin Mas`ud reported that;
the Jinns came down upon the Prophet while he was reciting the Qur'an at a place called Nakhlah.
When they heard him,
قَالُوا أَنصِتُوا (They said:"Listen quietly.") meaning, hush!
They were nine in number, and one of them was called Zawba`ah. So Allah revealed,
وَإِذْ صَرَفْنَا إِلَيْكَ نَفَرًا مِّنَ الْجِنِّ يَسْتَمِعُونَ الْقُرْانَ
فَلَمَّا حَضَرُوهُ قَالُوا أَنصِتُوا فَلَمَّا قُضِيَ وَلَّوْا إِلَى قَوْمِهِم مُّنذِرِينَ
And when We sent toward you a group of Jinns, to listen to the Qur'an. When they attended it, they said: “Listen quietly!" And when it was concluded, they returned to their people as warners. until His saying:
ضَلَلٍ مُّبِينٍ manifest error. (Ayah 29-32)
Thus, this report along with the above one by Ibn Abbas, may Allah be pleased with him, indicate that Allah's Messenger was not aware of the presence of the Jinns at that time. They only listened to his recitation and went back to their people. Later, they came to him in groups, one party after another, and one group after another.
BRING EMAAN FULLY OR DO NOT BRING EMAAN. BUT DO NOT STAY IN THE MIDDLE.
Just like when Allah asked Iblees to prostrate Adam Alayhis salam, he refused completely, and got rid of his emaan. He took the wrath of Allah on him forever. He said to Allah:
أَنَاْ خَيْرٌ مِّنْهُ خَلَقْتَنِي مِن نَّارٍ وَخَلَقْتَهُ مِن طِينٍ
I am better than him. You created me from fire, and You created him from clay. (38:76)
Al-Hasan Al-Basri said, "Iblis was not one of the angels, not even for a second. He was the origin of the Jinn just as Adam, upon him be peace, was the origin of mankind."
Iblees promised Allah that I will betray humans from worshipping you. Because You made me before him, I am bigger than him, I am more productive, I am better than him. Allah had made him before us. When Iblees refused to prostrate Adam, this was actually arrogance, hassad & jealousy. Sibling jealousy is one example of this.
Who will decide who is better? Fire or Clay? ALLAH THE ALMIGHTY
So, Allah decided, & cursed Iblees. Allah said: “Then get out from here; for verily, you are outcast."
وَإِنَّ عَلَيْكَ لَعْنَتِي إِلَى يَوْمِ الدِّينِ
Allah kicked him out of His Heaven & are scared of these creatures!
In Surah Sad 75, Allah says: "O Iblis! What prevents you from prostrating yourself to one whom I have created with Both My Hands. Are you too proud or are you one of the high exalted!"
قَالَ أَنَا خَيْرٌ مِّنْهُ خَلَقْتَنِي مِن نَّارٍ وَخَلَقْتَهُ مِن طِينٍ
Allah is Our Creator; The One Who Creates and the one who is created, can they both be similar? NO!
He (Allah) said, |"Get out of here, condemned, rejected. Indeed, those of them who follow you, I will fill Hell with you all together.
Allah says;
قَالَ اخْرُجْ مِنْهَا مَذْوُومًا مَّدْحُورًا
(Allah) said (to Iblis):"Get out from this (Paradise), Madh'uman Madhura. Whoever of them (mankind) will follow you, then surely, I will fill Hell with you all."
Allah emphasized His cursing, expelling, banishing and turning Shaytan away from the uppermost heights, saying;
Ibn Jarir said, "As for Madh'um, it is disgraced."
And he said, "Madhur is the distanced, that is, he is banished and expelled."
As-Suddi commented, “Hateful and expelled."
Qatadah commented, “Cursed and despised."
Mujahid said, “Expelled and banished."
WE ARE SCARED OF THE ONE WHO IS EXPELLED, CURSED, HATED BY ALLAH !!!
