They can move from place to place very fast; and can carry objects/people along with them. people travel from place to place through the air -while carried by the jinn (djinn)

Allah has given the jinn power and ability that He has not given humans. Allah has informed us of some of their ability, including great speed and strength, along with their ability to possess both living and nonliving bodies.

Strong & Fast Moving

They can move from place to place very fast; and can carry objects/people along with them. From Majmu-al-fatwa of Ibn Tamiyya, we find stories about people who used to travel from place to place through the air - they were all carried by the Jinn. More stories tell us about people who lived far away from each other. Yet they used to communicate with each other through messages, all exchanged by a Jinn. There are hundreds of other stories that confirm the same ability.

This ability is also confirmed from the Quran that when Solomon (as) asked his men whether there is anyone who will bring me the throne of Bilqis (Queen of Sheba - who was on her way to surrender to Solomon). An Efreet from among the Jinn promised Solomon (as) that he would be able to bring the throne of Sheba to Jerusalem in a period of time that was so short that a man would not be able to stand from his place of sitting. But one who had knowledge of the Book said, "I will bring it before your gaze returns to you" Allah has described this incident in the Quran with the following verses:

"A strong among the Jinn (efreet) said: I will bring it to you before you can rise from your place. Lo! I verily am strong and trusty for such work. One whom had knowledge of the scripture said: I will bring it to you before your gaze returns to you. And when he saw it set in his presence, and he said, 'This is from the bounties of my Lord'" (al-Naml: 39-40)

Builders & Divers

It is also known from the Quran that the Jinn used to build Castles for Solomon, those who would dive into the depths of Oceans and bring jewels and pearls from the depths below.

“" And (We gave him - Solomon) certain of the jinn who worked before him by permission of his Lord. And such of them as deviated from Our command, then We caused to taste the punishment of flaming fire. They made for him what he willed: Synagogues and statues, basins like wells and boilers built into the ground" ” (Saba 12-13).

"“So, we made the wind subservient unto him (Solomon), setting fair by His command whatever he intended. And the devils, every builder and diver (made We subservient), and others linked together in chains." ” (Saud 36-38)

Another verse in the Quran implies that they made Solomon a Castle of Glass [Quartz].

In preparation for the arrival of Bilqis, Prophet Sulayman (A) had ordered a palace of glass to be built. Under the glass floors, there was a pool of water with various kinds of fish swimming in it. When Bilqis arrived, he took her to the palace. The Holy Qur'an says:

"She was told, "Enter the palace."; but when she saw it, she thought there was a pool of water and bared her legs. (Sulayman) said, "Indeed this is but a place of glass." (She) said, "My Lord! verily I have been unjust to myself. I submit with Sulayman to Allah, the Lord of the worlds." (Quran 27:44)

Likewise, the Pyramids and the wonders of Petra are plausibly all the work of the Jinn. We find much affiliation between the pharaohs and the jinn of that time in Egypt. I will write about this in detail, soon Insha'Allah. - Next Page

Defying gravity

We can expect this ability from the above two characteristics. The jinn used to go to the lowest heaven to eavesdrop on the inhabitants of the heavens in order to find out what event would occur in the future. When the Prophet (saw) was sent his message the number of 'guards' in the heavens were increased. Allah says in the Quran,

'And we have sought [to reach] the heaven but found it filled with powerful guards and burning flames.' 'And we used to sit therein in positions for hearing, but whoever listens now will find a burning flame lying in wait for him.' 'And we do not know [therefore] whether evil is intended for those on earth or whether their Lord intends for them a right course.' (Al-Jinn: 8-10)

Types  of Jinn/djinn

Though there are technically several different types of beings that exist within the Jinn definition, it is also important to note that the Jinn have several subspecies of their own. 

It is unknown if the distinctions are created to differentiate between good and evil Jinn or actual races inside the Jinn group. It is thought that the truth is likely a combination of both answers. Surah 72 tells us there are three different types of Jinn that exist. There are also references to other types of Jinn in ancient texts.

Ifrit

Ifrit are a type of Jinn that are thought to frequent ancient ruins. There are many myths in modern day that the Ifrit protect the Egyptian pyramids and burial grounds. It is thought that if someone tries to open these areas without having an anti-spell, the Ifrit would come and kill the offender.

Ifrit are known to live in societies that are much like human worlds. They have royalty and social ranking that follows the example of Arabic tribal lines including tribes and clans. While they prefer to marry other Ifrit, they are known to be able to marry humans and have children with them. Ifrit are also known to have the power to grant wishes.

While Ifrit have free will and are known to be able to choose to be believers or non-believers, most Ifrit are considered to be wicked and malevolent creatures that should be avoided at all costs.

They are the Jinn that most modern day understandings of genies are based off of and have the ability to shift form.

The word 'marid' itself means 'giants', which speaks to their large form.

he Marid are known to be able to grant wishes and are likely the source of the 'Three Wishes' legend. However, obtaining these wishes come at a costly price.

Most often, it requires a great deal of battle to obtain a wish. They can also be made to grant wishes if they are imprisoned with magic or if there is a ritual performed in their honor. Flattery has also been proven to work - but an extraordinary amount of flattery is needed to gain favor.

Ghoul

Ghoul are some of the most greatly feared Jinn because of their ability to shape-shift and their tendency to prey on humans.

All Jinn are feared to some extent, Ghoul are especially feared because of their craving for human flesh. While ghouls are usually content to feed on a corpse, they are also content to devour humans that are still living making them a great threat. 

Hinn

Hinn are a type of Jinn that tend to appear as dogs and other animals.  

They are known to be spotted most often in Arabia, Persia, and India. It is thought that there may be a connection between these types of Jinn and the strange dogs that would lure foreign soldiers into the desert during World War II and then disappear. 

JINN HISTORY (JINN OF SULAIMAN)

According to traditions, the jinn stood behind the learned humans in Solomon's court, who in turn, sat behind the prophets.

The jinn remained in the service of Solomon, who had placed them in bondage, and had ordered them to perform a number of tasks. 

"And before Solomon were marshaled his hosts, - of jinn and men and birds, and they were all kept in order and ranks." (Qur'an 27:17)

The Qur'an relates that Solomon died while he was leaning on his staff. As he remained upright, propped on his staff, the jinn thought he was still alive and supervising them, so they continued to work.

They realized the truth only when Allah sent a creature to crawl out of the ground and gnaw at Solomon's staff until his body collapsed.

The Quran then comments that if they had known the unseen, they would not have stayed in the humiliating torment of being enslaved. 

Then, when We decreed (Solomon's) death, nothing showed them his death except a little worm of the earth, which kept (slowly) gnawing away at his staff: so when he fell down, the jinn saw plainly that if they had known the unseen, they would not have tarried in the humiliating penalty (of their task). 

" (Qur'an 34:14)

The Names of the Jinn Who Attended Solomon Son of David They Are Seventy

The jinn assert that Solomon son of David, for whom may there be peace, sat in audience and summoned the chief of the jinn and the shayatin, whose name was Fuqtus, to review them.

Prophet Sulaiman had the rebellious jinn locked up inside jars, bottles (Qamaqim al-Suleimaniyya), lamps, coffers, ect. Material being of brass. Legend has it that the ring of Prophet Sulaiman was brass-and-iron, the brass gave him command over the good jinn, while the silver over the bad jinn.

During the time of Mūsā bin Nuṣayr, in the days of the Umayyads of Syria, a fisherman was dispatched to a lake around the Copper/Brass City who had brought up from its depth's vessels made of copper soldered down and sealed. When one was broken open, a form, like that of a man but of gold and fully armed, came forth, and flew into the air crying out-"O Prophet of Allah, never will we do this again against thee!" On which, those who were present understood that Sulaiman-upon whom be peace-had imprisoned the jinn

WHAT JINNI/ DJINN IS CABLE OF DOING

From all of the known creations of Allah (swt), the Jinn and the Humans are the only two creations with free will. All other creations, the animals, plants etc. they do not have a free will, all they do is worship Allah (swt). Angels do not have a free will either, they are under the direct command of Allah (swt), and they cannot go against this command. Unlike in Christianity, we as Muslims do not believe that Iblees (Lucifer) was an Angel, because Angels cannot go against the command of Allah (swt)

While the Jinn are similar to us, there are two major differences between them and us. First of all, the Jinn belong to the creations of the unseen. We cannot see them, while they can see us. Secondly, Allah (swt) created the Jinn from smokeless fire, while He created humans from clay and water. Also, it is commonly agreed that the Jinn have a nasty or provocative nature. Very commonly, they enjoy staying with impurity, meaning the love staying in bathrooms or people who do not frequently wash themselves.

Additionally, the Jinn can be divided into several groups, not regarding their skills, but their appearance and what they do. There are the:

• Normal Jinn
• Ifrit

• Shayateen

  The normal Jinn are just like us. They eat, drink, go to work, they have families, they give birth, they marry and so on and so forth. They also follow the world religions. Some of them are Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Hindu etc.

  The Ifrit are the most powerful of the Jinn, and commonly belong to the nastier group of the Jinn.

  The Shayateen are the knights of Iblees. They have sworn themselves against Allah (swt), and their goal is to get as many people away from Islam, as possible.

  Under these three "major" groups of Jinn (there might even be more), they can be divided into three other groups, concerning their skills

  The different skills of the Jinn are mentioned in the authentic hadeeth:

  • One that has wings and can fly
  • One that can appear as animals, such as dogs, cats, camels, snakes, scorpions etc. (It is commonly known and agreed that they prefer the form of dogs and snakes)
  • One that comes and goes

  • While the first two mentioned skills are quite self-explainable, the third one can be explained further. The ones that "come and go" are those who travel. They are fast, very fast. They are the ones that can be held accountable for hauntings.

    As my fellow brothers have mentioned, one of the biggest sources of information about the Jinn come from the stories of Prophet Suleiman (pbuh) in the Qur'an. Allah (swt) gave Prophet Suleiman (pbuh) power over the Jinn, meaning, they had to follow his command because Allah (swt) told them so. At one time, one of the Jinn told Prophet Sulaiman (pbuh) that he could bring the throne of Sheeba to him, before he is even able to stand up. And surely, he did. This tells us the following. They can materialize and dematerialize matter and transport it over great distances, and they can be very fast.

    One of the biggest issues with the Jinn is that, if they see that you fear them, they will most likely take advantage of you. They can possess you. Prophet Muhammad (saws) said that the "Shaytaan flows through the son of Adam like blood", meaning they can possess us. Some people who call themselves healers but are actually magicians and sorcerers, can use the Jinn to do evil. This is a major sin, as Allah (swt) has mentioned in the Quran.

    "What they have concocted is but a slight of a magician. And the magician does not succeed, wherever he comes from." (Surah Taha, Ch. 20 V. 69)

    Finally, and most importantly, do not fear the Jinn. Even if some of their powers might seem supernatural to us, some of the things we are capable of doing, they are not. They might even be more scared of us, than we are of them. Do not fear the creation over the creator. Allah knows best.
