phets, like their human counterparts:
In this way We have appointed as enemies to every
Prophet satans from both mankind and from the
jinn… (Surat al-An'am: 112)
Consequently the jinn, just like people, will be fully paid
in the Hereafter for what they do. Those who believe in
Allah, and pay heed to the warnings of the prophets will be
repaid for their deeds and will not be wronged. On the other
hand, jinn who disbelieve will be thrown into Hell together
with disbelieving people. Allah has related this fact in the
Qur'an as follows:
We created many of the jinn and mankind for Hell.
They have hearts they do not understand with. They
have eyes they do not see with. They have ears they
do not hear with. Such people are like cattle. No,
they are even further astray! They are the unaware.
(Surat al-A'raf: 179)

94. Can the jinn foretell the future?

Allah has stated in many verses in the Qur'an that no
one, other than Himself, has knowledge of the unseen and
will never have the capacity to acquire it. One of these verses
states as follows:
Say: "No one in the heavens and the earth knows the
unseen except Allah." They are not aware of when
they will be raised. (Surat an-Naml: 65)

Jinn can never, unless Allah wills, gain knowledge about
the future. There are verses in the Qur'an relating that the
jinn will attempt to gain knowledge of the unseen, but will
not succeed and will themselves admit that they cannot.
