November 01, 2023, 03:43:43 pm Ruhi_Rose: Yes .. making lots of dua everyday ..... watching those real life video clips, my face feels wet with tears all the time.  May ALLAH grant the best to these wonderful, brave & steadfast martyrs,  Ameen ya Allah.
November 01, 2023, 03:38:26 pm Zainab_M: Keep praying, praying a lot for Gaza. It's worse than a prison .. it's a concentration camp.  Children as young as 10 or 11 are having to care for their younger siblings ages 2, 3 and 4 becoz many have lost both parents.  It's a very, very, very tearful situation there.
October 26, 2023, 03:40:19 pm N. Truth Seeker: Don't forget to look up MV Blog Zainab's Lounge for our Gaza updates.
October 20, 2023, 04:24:44 pm Zainab_M: Right sister Heba.  Gaza hospital bombing has the fingerprints of Israel all over it.  For Israel this is no big crime.  They have done this and much worse many times in the past and intend to do the same and worse many more times in near future.
October 20, 2023, 04:20:20 pm Heba E. Husseyn: Catching Zionist lies isn't hard. Soon after Gaza hospital bombing killing and maiming hundreds, Israel was quick to accuse Islamic Jihad of a misfired rocket.  That didn't sound plausible because IJ does not have such sophisticated bombing devices.  Zionist lie was fully exposed when anglican archbishop of Jerusalem,Hosam Naoum,  said today that 3 or 4 days prior to boming Israel had warned Gaza hospital to evacuate. Yet CIA claims in its flawed analysis that the rocket did not come from Israel.  But conveniently does not explain how Israel could have known 4 days earlier that a "misfired" rocket from IJ was coming.  Yet on the basis of this flawed & bias analysis of CIA, Biden is comforting Israel he believes Israel didn't do that war crimes bombing.
July 29, 2023, 03:02:07 am Zainab_M: Yesterday was Ashura, Muharram 10, 1444 (July 27, 2023).  Read about this very tragic day and details of the world's greatest 7th century revolutionary: WHO WAS HUSSEIN.
June 28, 2023, 09:48:39 am Zainab_M: Walaikum As Salaam.  This was the first Hajj open to all after the pandemic. It was attended by 2.6 million Muslims.

 BismEm


Reflections on the Glorious Quran

"How disbelieve ye in Allah when ye were dead and He gave life to you! Then He will give you death, then life again, and then unto Him ye will return."  2:28

This is a very important and comforting Verse, so please read it carefully, think about it and remember it always.

The period before the birth of each individual is also referred to as "death" in the Quran.  Thus, the life-cycle consists of two deaths and living twice, the first life on earth being temporary and the second life after the Final Judgment being permanent.

I would surmise that it's the same concerning all living beings, except that in the case of animals, birds and sea creatures etc. - they won't be questioned for their deeds and intent like humans. 

And Allah knows best.

Salam sis.  From all the information given in the Quran about Jinn, it's quite obvious that Jinn like humans can be either righteous or unrighteous.  This apparently means that Jinn like humans can choose their path of conduct, they can either be obedient to Allah or disobedient, like humans.   From the Quran I also understand that this Final Message of Allah came as a Guide for both humans and Jinn alike.  All such information tells me that yes, the Jinn will need to account for their deeds on the Day of Judgment like us. 

However, the life span of Jinn and how or when they die, has not been elucidated in the Quran.   So, we cannot speculate on that.

Also if you carefully read the whole of Surah Ar-Rehman (55th Chapter of the Quran), you will find that it is addressed to both humans and Jinn regarding this world and the Hereafter.  For instance, Verse 55:31 of Surah Ar-Rehman says "We shall dispose of you, O ye two dependents (man and jinn)."  This is clear indication that the existence of Jinn on earth is just as temporary as humans.  Then again, quoting Verse 55:39 "On that day neither man nor jinni will be questioned of his sin."  This is interpreted as, the righteous and sinful of both humans and Jinn will be known by their appearance on the Day of Judgment .. "day" apparently referring to as Judgment Day.  Subsequently each one of them will face either Salvation or retribution, depending upon their conduct.

This is how I understand it.  And of course, Allah knows best.
