Nature of jinns
Jinns are supernatural creatures, created from smokeless fire by Allah (SWT).
1 They were created before human beings.
2 They cannot be naturally seen and touched by human beings, except by the will of Allah (SWT).
3 Like human beings, jinns can be good, evil, or neutrally benevolent.
4 They also have free will, like human beings.
5 Jinns are not angels.
6 They can do extraordinary things.
7 They can penetrate enclosures.
8 They have free will or freedom to obey or disobey Allah (SWT).
9 They receive revelations from Allah’s (SWT) messengers, just as human beings do.
Some jinns are believers and obedient servants of Allah (SWT), while others are unbelievers, and disobedient servants of Allah (SWT).
