Jinn in the Qur'an                     181


          molten copper flow out for him. And some of the jinn worked in front
          of him by his Lord's permission. And if a single one of them deviates at
          all from Our command, We let him taste the punishment of the Searing
          Blaze. (Surah Saba, 12)
           He (Sulayman) said (to Hoopoe), 'We will soon see if you have told
          the truth or are a liar. Take this letter of mine and deliver it to them and
          then withdraw from them a little and see how they respond.'She said,
          'Council! A noble letter has been delivered to me. (Surat an-Naml, 27-
          29)
           And the satans, every builder and diver, and others of them, yoked
          together in chains. (Surah Sad, 37-38)
           Sulayman's troops, made up of jinn and men and birds, were assem-
          bled for him, paraded in tight ranks. (Surat an-Naml, 17)


           THE CLAIM OF DISBELIEVERS THAT THERE IS
           A KINSHIP BETWEEN ALLAH AND THE JINN
           They claim there is a blood-tie between Him and the jinn but the jinn
          know very well that they will be arraigned. (Surat as-Saffat, 158)

           DENIERS MAKE THE JINN ASSOCIATES WITH ALLAH
           Yet they make the jinn co-partners with Allah when He created
          them! And they atttribute sons and daughters to Him without any
          knowledge. Glory be to Him! He is far above what they describe!
          (Surat al-Anam, 100)


           SOME PEOPLE WORSHIP THE JINN
           They will say, 'Glory be to You! You are our Protector, not them. No,
          they were worshipping the jinn. They mostly had faith in them.'
          (Surah Saba, 41)


           JINN'S WHISPERING INTO HEART
           … from the evil of the insidious whisperer who whispers in people's
          breasts and comes from the jinn and from mankind.' (Surat an-Nas, 4-6)
