Almighty Allaah tells us in the Noble Quran that some of the jinn said
)what means(:"And among us are Muslims ]in submission to Allaah[, and
among us are the unjust. And whoever has become Muslim — those have
sought out the right course. But as for the unjust, they will be, for
Hell, firewood.'"]Quran 72:14-15[
The Muslims among the jinn are of different levels as regards
righteousness and piety. Allaah Says )what means(:"And among us are
the righteous, and among us are ]others[ not so; we were ]of[ divided
ways."]Quran 72:11[
The story of the first jinn who became Muslim was narrated by
'Abdullaah Ibn 'Abbaaswho said: "The Prophetwent out with a group of
his Companions )( heading for the marketplace of 'Ukaath. This was
when the devils were prevented from getting any news from heaven, and
shooting stars had been sent against them. The devils went back to
their people, who said, 'What is the matter with you?' They said, 'We
cannot get news from heaven, and shooting stars were sent against us.'
Their people said, 'Nothing is stopping you from hearing news from
heaven except some new event that must have happened. Go and look in
the east and the west of the earth, and see if you can find out what
it is that is stopping you from hearing news from heaven."
Those who went out in the direction of Tihaamah came upon the
Prophetin )a place called( Nakhlah, when he was on his way to 'Ukaath,
and found him leading his Companions in Fajr )dawn( prayer. When they
heard the Quran, they listened to it and said, 'By Allaah, this is
what is stopping us from hearing news from heaven.' When they went
back to their people, they said as Allaah tells us in the Quran )what
means(:"Indeed, we have heard an amazing Quran ]i.e. recitation[. It
guides to the right course, and we have believed in it. And we will
never associate with our Lord anyone."]Quran 72:1-2[
Then Allaah revealed to His Prophetthe verse )which means(:"Say, ]O
Muhammad[, "It has been revealed to me that a group of the jinn
listened and said, "Indeed, we have heard an amazing
Quran..."]Al-Bukhaari[
Their reckoning on the Day of Resurrection
The jinn will be called to account on the day of Resurrection.
Mujaahidsaid, concerning the verse )which means(:"…but the jinn have
already known that they ]who made such claims[ will be brought ]to
punishment[."]Quran 37:158[
"They will be brought to judgement."]Al-Bukhaari[
Protection from the harm of the jinn
Because the jinn can see us while we cannot see them, the
Prophettaught us many ways to protect ourselves from their harm, such
as seeking refuge with Allaah from the accursed Shaytaan )Satan(,
reciting chapters Al-Falaq and An-Naas )the last two chapters of the
Quran(, and reciting the words taught by Allaah in the Quran )which
mean(:"And say, "My Lord, I seek refuge in You from the incitements of
the devils. And I seek refuge in You, my Lord, lest they be present
with me."]Quran 23:97-98[
Saying Bismillaah )in the Name of Allaah( before entering one's home,
before eating or drinking, and before having intercourse with one's
spouse will also keep the devil from entering the house or partaking
with a person in his food, drink and sexual activity.
Similarly, mentioning the name of Allaah before entering the toilet or
taking off one's clothes will prevent the jinn from seeing a person's
private parts or harming him, as the Prophetsaid:"To put a barrier
that will prevent the jinn from seeing the 'Awrah )parts of the body
that must be covered in Islam( of the Children of Aadam, let any one
of you say 'Bismillaah' when entering the toilet."]At-Tirmithi[
Strength of faith and religion in general will also prevent the jinn
from harming a person, so much so that if they were to fight, the one
who has faith would win. 'Abdullaah Ibn Mas'oodsaid: "A man from among
the Companions of Muhammadmet a male jinn. They wrestled, and the man
knocked down the jinn. The man said to him, 'You look small and skinny
to me, and your forearms look like the front paws of a dog. Do all the
jinn look like this, or only you?' He said, 'No, by Allaah, among them
I am strong, but let us wrestle again, and if you defeat me I will
teach you something that will do you good.' The man said, 'Fine.' He
)the jinn( said, 'Recite )the verse, which means(:"Allaah- there is no
deity except Him, the Ever- Living, the Sustainer of ]all[ existence
…"]Quran 2: 255[
The man said, 'Fine.' He said, 'You will never recite this in your
house but the Satan will come out of it like a donkey breaking wind,
and he will never come back in until the next morning.'" ]Ad-Daarimi[
