Summary of Sunni concepts
0:08
The truth about the jinn and their origin
0:11
Jinn is a real world that exists in life
0:16
Muslims believe in this existence
0:19
To tell the Holy Qur’an about them in many verses
0:24
In fact, an entire surah of his surahs is called Surah Al-Jinn
0:29
It tells about some of their descriptions and their situation with the Holy Qur’an
0:34
The jinn were created before humans
0:37
Their creation was from fire
0:40
As God Almighty said
0:42
We created the jinn before from the fire of toxins
0:48
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
0:51
The jinn were created from a jinn of fire
0:55
Narrated by Muslim
0:58
And the subject of janna in the language
1:01
Benefits of concealment
1:03
Everything that is hidden from you is hidden from you
1:06
And the darkness of the night has drawn its cover and darkness
1:10
Gardens with dense trees are called jnana
1:15
Because its trees cover what is underneath them from the sun
1:19
Therefore, the world of the jinn is independent and separate from humans
1:24
We cannot perceive them with our abstract minds and senses
1:29
But we may sometimes realize some of their effects
1:33
The basic fact is that we do not see them or feel them
1:37
As God Almighty said about Satan and his soldiers, who are among the jinn
1:42
He sees you and his tribe from where you do not see them
1:47
They are from the unseen that we are commanded to believe in
1:51
A relative absence, not an absolute one
1:54
They may sometimes be shaped like some animals
1:58
They sometimes appear to some people
2:01
They may address them or dress some people
2:05
They enter into them and dominate them because they harmed them, for example
2:11
Or because one of the witches and sorcerers
2:14
He has sent them to bewitch them
2:18
Some descriptions of the jinn and their types
2:21
We do not know the descriptions of the jinn and their types
2:26
Except what God and His Messenger told us
2:29
It is that first
2:32
They have hearts, eyes, and ears
2:36
Humans also have all of that
2:39
God Almighty said
2:41
And We have created for Hell many jinn and humans
2:46
They have hearts with which they do not understand
2:49
They have eyes with which they cannot see
2:52
They have ears with which they cannot hear
2:56
Those are like cattle, nay, they are more astray
3:00
Those are the heedless ones
3:03
What is meant in the verse is not seeing or hearing
3:07
It is turning away from the truth and not being guided to it
3:11
It's as if they don't see him or hear him
3:14
Nor did their hearts understand it
3:17
This is as God Almighty said about the infidel nations
3:21
And We gave them hearing, sight, and hearts
3:25
Their hearing, their sight, and their hearts are of no use to them
3:32
Because they denied the signs of God
3:35
And what they mocked befell them
3:40
Secondly
3:41
They are three types
3:43
As the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, told
3:47
There are three types of jinn
3:49
He created wings for them to fly in the air
3:54
He classified snakes and dogs
3:57
And the class they solve and put
4:00
Narrated by Ibn Hibban and Al-Tabarani in Al-Kabir and Al-Hakim
4:05
It was authenticated by Al-Albani
4:08
Assignment of the jinn
4:12
The jinn are accountable and are subject to Sharia law, just like humans
4:17
They were created for the same purpose for which mankind was created
4:21
God Almighty said
4:23
I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me
4:28
Messengers were sent to them just as they were sent to mankind
4:34
God Almighty said
4:36
No, company of jinn and humans. Did not messengers from among you come to you narrating to you My verses?
4:44
And they warn you of the meeting of this day of yours
4:48
And a word from you
4:50
It is possible that the messengers of the jinn are of their kind
4:53
Or that their messengers are only messengers of mankind themselves
4:57
Because it was mentioned after all the jinn and mankind were mentioned
5:02
This work is not based on disagreement
5:05
It is not paid attention to in general
5:08
However, we are certain that they are entrusted with the message of our Prophet Muhammad, may God bless him and grant him peace
5:16
According to the words of God Almighty
5:18
Say: It has been revealed to me that a group of jinn listened
5:23
They said, “We have heard a wondrous Qur’an.”
5:27
It guides us to maturity, so we believe in Him
5:31
We will not associate anyone with our Lord
5:34
And the Almighty said a story about the words of the jinn
5:38
They said, “O our people, we have heard a letter.”
5:42
It was sent down after Moses
5:45
Verifying what is in his hands
5:47
It guides you to the truth and a straight path
5:51
O our people, answer God’s caller
5:55
Believe in Him and He will forgive you of your sins
5:59
And He will save you from a painful punishment
6:02
Whoever does not respond to God’s caller is not a miracle on earth
6:07
He has no guardians besides Him
6:11
Those are in clear error
6:14
These verses also benefit their knowledge
6:17
By the law of God’s Prophet Moses, peace be upon him
6:21
It also confirms their assignment to our law
6:24
The jinn are just like humans
6:27
In their position on assignment and worship
6:30
Among them are obedient believers
6:33
Among them are the sinners
6:35
Among them are the unbelievers
6:37
As God told them they said
6:40
I am among us Muslims and among us are those who neglect
6:45
Whoever converts to Islam, those will seek righteousness
6:49
As for those who fall short, they are firewood for Hell
6:54
Their disbelievers will also bear witness against themselves on the Day of Resurrection of their disbelief
6:59
Like a human
7:01
So God Almighty says
7:03
They testified against themselves that they were unbelievers
7:07
It includes them because the verse is the beginning of it
7:11
O community of jinn and humans
7:14
Did not messengers from your own come to you?
7:17
Jinn are like humans
7:19
They enter hell or heaven
7:22
According to their faith and deeds
7:24
Concerning Hell, God Almighty said:
7:27
He said, “Enter among the nations that passed away before you, of the jinn and mankind, in Hell.”
7:35
As for heaven
7:37
God has blessed their believers by entering it like humans
7:42
God Almighty said, addressing all of mankind and jinn
7:46
And for whoever fears standing before his Lord, there are two gardens
7:50
So which of the favors of your Lord will you deny?
7:56
Jinn and the knowledge of the unseen
8:02
Allegation of charlatans and charlatans
8:04
Informing them of the unseen through communication with the jinn
8:08
He is a fool and a charlatan
8:11
God Almighty said
8:13
Say: No one in the heavens and earth knows the unseen except God
8:18
This is true of everyone in the heavens and the earth
8:22
It includes all humans and jinn
8:25
Especially regarding the jinn
8:27
God Almighty said about the jinn who are subjugated
8:30
To serve his Prophet Suleiman, peace be upon him
8:33
Then when we judged him to die
8:36
The only indication to them of his death was an animal on the ground that ate from his flesh
8:42
When he fell, the jinn became clear
8:46
If only they knew the unseen
8:48
They remained in humiliating torment
8:51
It was the demons of the jinn
8:53
Before the mission of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
8:56
They eavesdrop from the sky
8:59
They snatch the word from the truth
9:02
They mix with it a hundred lies
9:05
They throw it into the ears of their saints, the soothsayers and fortune-tellers
9:10
As the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
9:14
When the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, was sent
9:18
It prevented the jinn from eavesdropping on the sky
9:22
God Almighty said
9:24
And We have placed constellations in the sky
9:27
And We have beautified it for the onlookers
9:31
And We protected it from every accursed devil
9:35
Except for one who eavesdrops, and is followed by a clear shooting star
9:40
And in Surah Al-Jinn
9:42
And we touched the sky and found it
9:46
Filled with strong guards and meteors
9:50
Because we used to sit in the seats to listen
9:55
Whoever listens now will find a meteor waiting for him
10:00
And the Almighty said
10:02
They do not listen to the supreme council
10:05
They are pelted from all sides
10:09
They will be defeated, and they will have a severe torment
10:13
Except for the one who was snatched away and followed by a piercing shooting star
10:18
It is never permissible to believe that the jinn knows the unseen
10:22
Or believe soothsayers and fortune-tellers in what they say
10:27
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
10:31
Whoever goes to a fortune teller and asks him about something
10:34
His prayers were not accepted for forty nights
10:38
Narrated by Muslim
10:40
Our position on the jinn
10:44
When the world of the jinn was hidden from the world of humans
10:49
Separate from him
10:51
People should avoid them and not communicate with them
10:55
Or seeking their help in a matter of this world or religion
11:00
God did not permit any of that
11:03
Except for the subjugation of some of them to his Prophet Solomon, peace be upon him
11:08
It was not part of the call of the Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace
11:12
For them to believe in God Almighty
11:15
Commissioned by Him, Glory be to Him
11:18
The believer of the jinn has stated
11:20
That seeking human help from them harms them and does not benefit them
11:25
God Almighty said
11:27
And he was a human being
11:30
They seek refuge with men from the jinn
11:33
They made them more burdensome
11:37
It should also
11:39
Protecting yourself from the evil of the jinn’s demons through what God has prescribed for us
11:44
One of the constant remembrances of God Almighty in every situation
11:48
Especially the morning and evening remembrances
11:51
And reciting Surat Al-Falaq and Al-Nas
11:54
And the supplication of going home
11:56
Children stop playing and excessive movement at sunset
12:01
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, also instructed that
12:06
Because it is the hour when the devils are spreading
12:10
Definition of Satan and his relationship with the jinn
12:15
Satan is from Shattan, meaning after
12:20
Satan is called the jinn
12:23
Because he is far from the truth and from God’s mercy
12:26
And for his disobedience and rebellion against his Lord
12:29
And his refusal to prostrate to Adam, peace be upon him
12:33
It is a word used in the Arabic language to refer to every oppressive person
12:38
A rebel against the jinn, humans and animals
12:42
God Almighty said
12:44
And thus We have appointed for every prophet
12:47
Enemy of the devils of mankind and jinn
12:50
But not every jinn is a devil
12:54
The jinn is as before
12:56
Among them are Muslims
12:58
Among them are the rebellious infidels
13:01
And these are the only devils
13:04
As for naming Satan
13:06
Balsam is one who has no good
13:09
And Apollos despaired and was confused
13:12
So God called Satan Satan
13:15
Because he despaired of God's mercy
13:18
Because there is no good for him
13:20
Satan's enmity towards the children of Adam
13:24
God Almighty stated in His Holy Book
13:28
Satan's enmity towards the children of Adam
13:31
In many verses
13:33
About his enmity to Adam, peace be upon him
13:36
And his wife, God Almighty said
13:38
So we said, “O Adam.”
13:40
This is an enemy of you and your husband
13:43
They will not expel you from Paradise
13:46
So you are miserable
13:48
And the Almighty said
13:50
So remove Satan from it
13:53
So he took them out of what was in them
13:56
And say, “Go down, enemies of one another.”
13:59
And you have a stable on earth
14:02
And enjoyment for a while
14:04
And his hostility to all human beings
14:07
God Almighty said
14:09
Did I not entrust you, O sons of Adam?
14:12
Do not worship Satan
14:14
He is your clear enemy
14:17
And the Almighty said
14:19
Satan is your enemy
14:22
So they took him as an enemy
14:25
He only calls on his party to be among the companions of the Blaze
14:30
Satan himself declared it
14:33
His enmity towards the children of Adam
14:35
God Almighty said
14:37
He said: Have you seen this person whom you honored?
14:41
Because you delay me until the Day of Resurrection
14:44
His offspring will harm you except a little
14:48
And his saying, “I will afflict you with his offspring.”
14:52
That is, to seize control of his offspring through seduction and deception
14:57
And the Almighty said
14:59
My Lord said, “Because you have led me astray, I will certainly beautify them on earth.”
15:05
And I will seduce them all
15:08
Except Your sincere servants among them
15:12
Satan's goals and purposes
15:16
The general goal that Satan seeks to achieve
15:21
It is to throw a person into the fire
15:24
And it deprives him of Paradise just as it deprived him of it
15:28
God Almighty said
15:30
He only calls on his party to be among the companions of the Blaze
15:35
Its detailed objectives for achieving this goal and its means for doing so are numerous
15:41
From her
15:43
Firstly
15:44
Leading people into polytheism and disbelief
15:47
God Almighty said
15:49
Like Satan, when he said to man, he is ungrateful
15:53
When he disbelieved, he said, “I am innocent of you.”
15:58
And in the Holy Hadith
16:00
And I created all of My servants as being pure
16:04
And the devils came to them
16:06
So I drove them away from their religion
16:09
And I forbade for them what I made permissible for them
16:12
And I commanded them to associate anything with Me for which I did not send down any authority
16:17
Narrated by Muslim
16:19
Secondly
16:20
Trapping them into heresy
16:23
This is more beloved to Satan than falling into sin
16:27
Because its harm is in religion
16:30
Because sin can be repented of
16:33
As for heresy
16:35
It is rare for the owner to repent of it
16:38
Because he does not believe that he is wrong and sinful
16:42
Third
16:43
Trapping them into sins and transgressions
16:46
That is when he will not be able to lead them into polytheism and disbelief
16:51
As God Almighty said
16:53
He only commands you to do evil and immorality
16:57
And that you say about God what you do not know
17:01
And the Almighty said
17:03
Satan only wants to create enmity and hatred between you through alcohol and gambling
17:11
It prevents you from remembering God and praying
17:15
Are you finished?
17:18
And other verses
17:21
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
17:24
Indeed, Satan has despaired of ever being worshiped in this country of yours
17:30
But obedience will be due to Him in any of your deeds that you despise
17:35
He will be satisfied with it
17:37
Narrated by Al-Tirmidhi
17:39
It was authenticated by Al-Albani
17:41
Fourth
17:43
Prevent them from obedience and worship
17:46
God Almighty also mentioned what Satan said
17:49
He said, “Because you have led me astray, I will remain for them on your straight path.”
17:55
Then I will come to them from before them, from behind them, from their right, and from their left
18:04
You will not find most of them thankful
18:07
And the Almighty said
18:09
Satan only wants to create enmity and hatred between you through alcohol and gambling
18:16
It prevents you from remembering God and praying
18:20
Are you finished?
18:23
And from that too
18:25
Corrupting the worship and obedience of human beings
18:28
Whether by obsessiveness about it
18:31
Or introducing hypocrisy into the heart of the servant
18:34
Or distract him from humility and contemplation in his worship
18:38
And so on
18:40
Fifth
18:42
Preoccupying them with permissible matters and expanding them
18:45
Sixth
18:47
Preoccupying them with the virtuous rather than the virtuous
18:50
Seventh
18:52
He casts out his guardians from the devils of the jinn and mankind to harm the servants of God
18:57
When he despaired of misleading them
19:00
Satan's means to achieve his goals
19:05
Satan uses many methods to achieve his goals and plot against the children of Adam
19:13
It is so
19:15
Firstly
19:16
Decorating falsehood
19:18
He portrays falsehood in the image of truth
19:21
As he did with our father Adam, peace be upon him
19:25
Where he whispered to him to eat from the tree that he was forbidden from
19:29
And he said
19:31
Your Lord has not forbidden you from this tree except that it be two angels or that it be among the immortals
19:39
Satan swore to continue this approach, so he said:
19:44
O Lord, because You have led me astray, I will surely beautify them on earth
19:49
And I will seduce them all
19:52
Except Your sincere servants among them
19:55
This is an example
19:57
Adorning the call to earthly doctrines
20:00
Capitalism, communism or socialism
20:04
It is the way to a safe and prosperous life
20:08
And from that too
20:10
Calling for nudity and obscenity
20:13
In the name of personal freedom and openness
20:16
And from that too
20:18
Distracting people and corrupting their morals with low-quality films and series in the name of art
20:25
And from that too
20:27
Adorning the life of this world, relying on it, and forgetting the afterlife
20:33
And other endless means of decoration
20:38
Secondly
20:40
Excessive or excessive use of weapons
20:44
This depends on the servant’s situation regarding any of God’s commands
20:49
If he finds it lukewarm, careless, and indulgent
20:53
Take it from the side of negligence
20:56
The commanded slave may even have left out a sentence
20:59
Even if he finds caution, concern, and determination in it
21:03
Take it from the side of excess
21:06
Until he falls into extremism and exceeds the limits of what God has commanded
21:11
And falling into innovation in the religion of God
21:14
Third
21:16
False promises and security
21:19
This is through whispering to the children of Adam with illusions of dominance or wealth
21:24
Or happiness in following falsehood
21:27
In fact, he is a liar and a deceiver
21:31
He promises them and wishes them
21:34
Satan promises them nothing but delusion
21:38
And the Almighty said
21:40
And when Satan made their deeds seem pleasing to them
21:43
And he said, “No man can defeat you today.”
21:47
And I am your neighbor
21:50
When the two groups saw each other, he turned back on his heels
21:55
He said I am innocent of you
21:59
Fourth
22:01
Appearing as an advisor to a person
22:04
God Almighty said
22:06
And I swear to them, “I am of those who advise you both.”
22:11
So he pampered them arrogantly
22:13
Fifth
22:15
Gradual deception
22:17
It does not lead him to sin or disbelief directly
22:21
Because he knew he wouldn't do that
22:24
Rather, he follows a gradual policy
22:27
And go to it step by step
22:30
That is why God Almighty said, warning against it
22:34
And do not follow the steps of Satan
22:37
He is your clear enemy
22:41
Sixth
22:43
The servant postpones what is good and righteous
22:46
It is close to discouraging obedience and worship
22:50
But the servant comes out of forgetfulness
22:53
To discourage
22:55
God also told about the one who escaped from prison
22:58
From the companion of Joseph, peace be upon him
23:01
When he forgot what he commanded him
23:03
He said to the one who thought it was coming from him
23:07
Remember me before your Lord
23:10
Satan made him forget to remember his Lord
23:13
He stayed in prison for a few years
23:16
God Almighty also said about that
23:19
And when you see those who delve into Our verses
23:23
So turn away from them until they engage in someone else's conversation
23:28
Or Satan will make you forget
23:31
Do not sit after the remembrance with the unjust people
23:36
Seventh
23:37
Intimidating people from Satan’s guardians
23:41
God Almighty said
23:43
It is Satan who frightens his friends
23:48
So do not fear them, but fear them if you are believers
23:54
Eighth
23:55
Casting suspicions
23:57
This is to shake one's faith
24:00
With the doubts and suspicions he casts
24:03
The Prophet, may God bless him and grant him peace, said
24:07
Satan comes to one of you
24:09
He says: Who created such and such?
24:12
Who created such and such?
24:14
Until he says, “Who created your Lord?”
24:19
If he reaches it, let him seek refuge in God and be gentle
24:23
Narrated by Al-Bukhari and Muslim
24:26
And other of his cunning methods
24:29
Which one can transcend
24:32
With the strength of his faith and the help of his Lord
24:36
Satan's plot is weak
24:41
Despite all the mentioned goals of Satan
24:44
And its means of misleading the children of Adam
24:47
God Almighty ruled that his plot was weak
24:50
As long as one is fortified by his faith
24:53
In his Lord and piety
24:55
God Almighty said
24:57
Satan's plot was weak
25:01
As God Almighty decreed
25:03
That Satan has no authority
25:06
On His faithful servants
25:08
God Almighty said
25:10
My servants, you have no authority over them
25:14
Your Lord is sufficient as a disposer of affairs
25:17
God Almighty promised to be a representative of His faithful servants
25:22
And protect them from the deception and whisperings of Satan
25:26
