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.

 salamem
sister thanks a lot detailed explanation of jinn read me now please ..............what i read about jinn is ......................
                   Such an event is not new to Muslims. They have been always haunted by Sui generis explained Jinn. Dichotomy exists pertaining to this term within the rational and the rest.  I am gratified to bring to your notice the definition of the term
Jinn - (Jeem-Noon-Noon)
janna means hidden. it means not only hidden from the eyes but also from senses and Jinnatun means madness (23/25). 

The Qur an has referred to, and addressed Jinn and Ins together in many verses. Ins refers to tribes that used to settle down in one place, and Jinn means inhabitants of a subterranean world, nomadic tribes who kept on wandering in the desert.  The Qur an pointedly addressed both of these groups such as in verse (6/131):  Oh Ye, assembly of Jinn and Ins, don t you know that a Rasool came to you from amongst you. There is no evidence in the Qur an to show that at any time a Jinn was also a Rasool; on the contrary, it is further clarified in verse (7/35) where it is made clear that Jinn belong to Bani-Adam.

Walaikum As-Salaam.  According to those well-versed in old Arabic, the term jinn has a double meaning .. elemental spirits as well as clever foreigners of the human race.  Foreigner (or foreigners) could be someone from a different tribe or race living in a different town or oasis or country.  The correct reference has to be grasped and understood from the substance of the specific verse being read. However, majority of the references to jinn in the Quran indicate elemental spirits.

You're right.  The Quran does not say of any messenger who was a jinn, but that shouldn't be taken to presume that jinn cannot acquire guidance from the Divine Message sent to human messengers.  For reference, kindly read Verses 72:1-12 Surah Al-Jinn.  And only Allah knows best.

Humans and jinn are distinctly categorized as two different species in the Quran, there can be no doubts on that - the former created of earth and the latter of smokeless fire.  Reference V.55:14-15  "He created man of clay like the potter's, And the jinn did He create of smokeless fire."  (55:14-15)  Ar-Rehman.  Verses 26 & 27 of Surah Al-Hijr also convey the same information, quote:  "Verily We created man of potter's clay of black mud altered, And the jinn did We create aforetime of essential fire."  (15:26-27).    This confirms that humans and jinn are different creations of Allah.

The explanation given by Free Minds on the expression "smokeless fire" is extraterrestrial plasma/energy beings.  Quoting Free Minds on this issue "Plasma is energy matter that makes-up 99% of the known universe. The description the Quran gives of Jinn being made from a 'smokeless fire' fits perfectly with this energy matter which is present but is not always possible to view with the naked eye."  However, the truth of this opinion is known to Allah alone.  It's impossible for any of us to confirm it.  So I leave it there and won't go any further.

Also refer to the following verses which clearly allude that humans and jinn are two different sets of beings:

"O company of jinn and men, if ye have power to penetrate (all) regions of the heavens and the earth, then penetrate (them)! Ye will never penetrate them save with (Our) sanction."  (55:33).

"I did not create the Jinn and the humans except to serve Me." (51:56)


Verse 7:35 which you referred to, I quote as follows. It's about the descendents of Adam, not the jinn.    "O Children of Adam! When messengers of your own come unto you who narrate unto you My revelations, then whosoever refraineth from evil and amendeth - there shall no fear come upon them neither shall they grieve."  (7:35) Al-Araf.   Since Allah Almighty has already stated that humans and jinn belong to different species, the expression "O Children of Adam .." in V.7:35 must be presumed as being addressed to humans only.

Please know, differing individual opinions on various Quranic information cannot be generalized.  Therefore no one is entitled to authoritatively consider their view to be the final one.  The final authority on every verse belongs only to Allah.  We can only confirm what the Quran confirms.  The rest remain everyone's personal opinion which can only be clarified by Allah on the Day of Judgment.
