Exactly.  The Quran does not say anything of that sort.   This entire 'sahaba' culture is entirely from hadith.

Walaykum Salam Sister Ruhi. 

There is no Quranic proof that Allah raised from among the jinn their own Prophets nor that Allah sent any Divine Revelations separately to the jinn.  But what is confirmed by Quranic verses is that the Messengers to the jinn were from among humans (reference Surah Al-Jinn Verses 1 & 2, Surah Al-Ahqaf Verses 29 to 32).   Referring to Verse 130 of Surah Al-An`am: “Oh you assembly of the jinn and humankind! Came there not unto you Messengers of your own…”

Reading the above Verse, one may wonder if prophets came among the community of jinn as well, that is, prophets who were jinn not humans.  But I repeat, there is absolutely no Quranic evidence that Allah Almighty sent any prophets to the community of jinn who were jinn themselves.  In the Arabic language, particularly Quranic Arabic in accordance with Arabic grammar,  whenever the Quran addresses humans along with any other species, it refers to humans.  When the Quran addresses all humanity, the Quranic grammar uses the masculine gender.  But all such Verses are addressed to both men as well as women.  According to similar use of Arabic grammar, in Verse 6:130, jinn are included with humankind but the messengers sent by Allah Almighty are humans (men) only.

Thus, from everything we know based on the Noble Quran, no messengers of the jinn species came to the jinn nor did any jinn receive Revelations from Allah.   Rather, the jinn listened to the Quran recited by the human Messenger sent by Allah, and subsequently they conveyed the Divine Message to other jinn of their community.  This is precisely what we understand from the Noble Quran.   And only Allah knows best.

"Say (O Muhammad): It is revealed unto me that a company of the Jinn gave ear, and they said: Lo! we have heard a marvellous Qur'an,  (72:1) Al-Jinn.

Which guideth unto righteousness, so we believe in it and we ascribe no partner unto our Lord."  (72:2)  Al-Jinn. 


"And when We inclined toward thee (Muhammad) certain of the jinn, who wished to hear the Qur'an and, when they were in its presence, said: Give ear! and, when it was finished, turned back to their people, warning.   (46:29) Al-Ahqaf.

"They said: O our people! Lo! we have heard a scripture which hath been revealed after Moses, confirming that which was before it, guiding unto the truth and a right road.  (46:30 Al-Ahqaf.

"O our people! respond to Allah's summoner and believe in Him. He will forgive you some of your sins and guard you from a painful doom.  (46:32)  Al-Ahqaf.

"And whoso respondeth not to Allah's summoner he can nowise escape in the earth, and he hath no protecting friends instead of Him. Such are in error manifest."  (46:32)  Al-Ahqaf.

 


"O ye assembly of the jinn and humankind! Came there not unto you messengers of your own who recounted unto you My tokens and warned you of the meeting of this your Day?" (6:130) Al-Anam.


As-Salam Alaykum dear everyone.  When Allah Almighty addresses this Verse to humans as well as jinn and mentions "messengers of your own" .... does this mean messengers were sent by The Almighty to the jinn separately who belonged to the species of the jinn?

Your opinion would be very helpful.

Father was a feudal ethnically from Pakistan's southern province of Sindh and spoke the local Sindhi language in addition to his shrieky English he learned from Oxford.  The mother had no reliable ethnic identity except that she was viewed a Pakistani during her lifetime.  She couldn't speak any language flawlessly.  According to storytellers she had her roots in some Kurdish Persian family and her ancestors migrated to south Asia some 500 years ago.   That way any one could be from any where.    Of course she didn't know a word of Farsi and her family is totally unknown even in Pakistan.
