The belief in unseen is the first characteristic of the righteous believers; because it distinguishes them from the atheists who want a concrete materialistic physical proof to believe.

1. Angels
Ayman Refaat

2. Unseen
• The second pillar/ article of faith in Islam is the belief in the angels.
• Angels are a part of the world of the “Unseen” which we cannot
comprehend.
• The belief in unseen is the first characteristic of the righteous
believers; because it distinguishes them from the atheists who want
a concrete materialistic physical proof to believe.

This is the Book about which there is no doubt, a guidance for those
conscious of Allah - Who believe in the unseen, establish prayer, and
spend out of what We have provided for them, And who believe in
what has been revealed to you, [O Muhammad], and what was
revealed before you, and of the Hereafter they are certain [in faith].
(2:2-3)

3. Physical Characteristics
• Angels are celestial spiritual beings that cannot be
perceived by sensory organs, and they were created
from light before creating the human beings.

ْ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬َ‫ل‬".
'A'isha reported that Allah's Messenger (‫)ﷺ‬ said:
The angels were created from light, just as the jinn were created from
smokeless fire and Adam was created from what you have been told
about (in the Qur'an)’ (i. e. he is fashioned out of clay).
Sahih Muslim 2996 - Book 55, Hadith 78

4. • Quran informed us that the angels have wings.
• Some of them have two wings, some have three or four,
and some have more than that.
ْ‫ر‬َ ْ‫اْل‬ َ‫و‬ ِ‫ت‬‫ا‬ َ‫او‬َ‫م‬َّ‫س‬‫ال‬ ِ‫ر‬ِ‫اط‬َ‫ف‬ ِ َّ ِ‫َّلل‬ ُ‫د‬ْ‫م‬َ‫ح‬ْ‫ال‬ً‫َل‬ُ‫س‬ُ‫ر‬ ِ‫ة‬َ‫ك‬ِ‫ئ‬ َ‫َل‬َ‫م‬ْ‫ال‬ ِ‫ل‬ِ‫ع‬‫ا‬َ‫ج‬ ِ‫ض‬‫ي‬ِ‫ل‬‫و‬ُ‫أ‬

ٌ‫ير‬ِ‫د‬َ‫ق‬ ٍ‫ء‬ْ‫َي‬‫ش‬
[All] praise is [due] to Allah , Creator of the
heavens and the earth, [who] made the angels
messengers having wings, two or three or four. He
increases in creation what He wills. Indeed, Allah is
over all things competent. (35:1)

5. • Angels are able to take human form, like Gabriel came in
human form to announce to Mary, mother of Jesus, the
God’s message.
‫ا‬َ‫ه‬ِ‫ل‬ْ‫ه‬َ‫أ‬ ْ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ ْ‫ت‬َ‫ذ‬َ‫ب‬َ‫ت‬‫ان‬ ِ‫ذ‬ِ‫إ‬ َ‫م‬َ‫ي‬ ْ‫ر‬َ‫م‬ ِ‫ب‬‫ا‬َ‫ت‬ِ‫ك‬ْ‫ال‬ ‫ي‬ِ‫ف‬ ْ‫ر‬ُ‫ك‬ْ‫ذ‬‫ا‬ َ‫و‬‫ًّا‬‫ي‬ِ‫ق‬ ْ‫َر‬‫ش‬ ‫ا‬ً‫ن‬‫ا‬َ‫ك‬َ‫م‬.ِ‫ن‬‫ُو‬‫د‬ ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ ْ‫ت‬َ‫ذ‬َ‫خ‬َّ‫ت‬‫ا‬َ‫ف‬‫َا‬‫ن‬ْ‫ل‬َ‫س‬ ْ‫ر‬َ‫أ‬َ‫ف‬ ‫ا‬ً‫ب‬‫ا‬َ‫ج‬ ِ‫ح‬ ْ‫م‬ِ‫ه‬

‫ًّا‬‫ي‬ِ‫ك‬ َ‫ز‬ ‫ا‬ً‫م‬ َ‫َل‬ُ‫غ‬ ِ‫ك‬َ‫ل‬ َ‫ب‬َ‫ه‬َ ِ‫ْل‬ ِ‫ك‬ِ‫ب‬ َ‫ر‬ ُ‫ل‬‫و‬ُ‫س‬َ‫ر‬
And mention, [O Muhammad], in the Book [the story of] Mary,
when she withdrew from her family to a place toward the east.
And she took, in seclusion from them, a screen. Then We sent to her
Our Angel, and he represented himself to her as a well-proportioned
man.
She said, "Indeed, I seek refuge in the Most Merciful from you, [so
leave me], if you should be fearing of Allah ."
He said, "I am only the messenger of your Lord to give you [news
of] a pure boy." (19:16-19)

6. • Angels also came in human form to Prophets Abraham,
Lot, and Muhammad. Even the companions of Prophet
Muhammad saw the angel Gabriel in human form.
َٰ‫ى‬ َ‫ر‬ْ‫ش‬ُ‫ب‬ْ‫ال‬ِ‫ب‬ َ‫يم‬ِ‫ه‬‫ا‬َ‫ْر‬‫ب‬ِ‫إ‬ ‫َا‬‫ن‬ُ‫ل‬ُ‫س‬ُ‫ر‬ ْ‫ت‬َ‫ء‬‫ا‬َ‫ج‬ ْ‫د‬َ‫ق‬َ‫ل‬ َ‫و‬َ‫م‬َ‫ف‬ ۖ ٌ‫م‬ َ‫َل‬َ‫س‬ َ‫ل‬‫ا‬َ‫ق‬ ۖ ‫ا‬ً‫م‬ َ‫َل‬َ‫س‬ ‫وا‬ُ‫ل‬‫ا‬َ‫ق‬َ‫ء‬‫ا‬َ‫ج‬ ‫ن‬َ‫أ‬ َ‫ث‬ِ‫ب‬َ‫ل‬ ‫ا‬
ٍ‫ذ‬‫ي‬ِ‫ن‬َ‫ح‬ ٍ‫ل‬ْ‫ج‬ِ‫ع‬ِ‫ب‬.ِ‫ص‬َ‫ت‬ َ‫َل‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ه‬َ‫ي‬ِ‫د‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫أ‬ َٰ‫ى‬َ‫أ‬َ‫ر‬ ‫ا‬َّ‫م‬َ‫ل‬َ‫ف‬ْ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ َ‫س‬َ‫ج‬ ْ‫و‬َ‫أ‬ َ‫و‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ه‬ َ‫ر‬ِ‫ك‬َ‫ن‬ ِ‫ه‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫ل‬ِ‫إ‬ ُ‫ل‬َ‫َل‬ ‫وا‬ُ‫ل‬‫ا‬َ‫ق‬ ۚ ً‫ة‬َ‫ف‬‫ي‬ ِ‫خ‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ه‬
ٍ‫وط‬ُ‫ل‬ ِ‫م‬ ْ‫و‬َ‫ق‬ َٰ‫ى‬َ‫ل‬ِ‫إ‬ ‫َا‬‫ن‬ْ‫ل‬ِ‫س‬ ْ‫ر‬ُ‫أ‬ ‫ا‬َّ‫ن‬ِ‫إ‬ ْ‫َف‬‫خ‬َ‫ت‬
And certainly did Our messengers come to Abraham with
good tidings; they said, "Peace." He said, "Peace," and did
not delay in bringing [them] a roasted calf.
But when he saw their hands not reaching for it, he
distrusted them and felt from them apprehension. They
said, "Fear not. We have been sent to the people of Lot."
(11:69-70)

7. Mental Characteristics
• Unlike humans or jinn, Angels lack free will;
because they do not have reason, and they have no
biological needs and therefore no lower desires
predicted by the natural world. So they are not
subject to temptation. They just strictly obey God's
commands.
َ‫ون‬ُ‫ل‬َ‫ع‬ْ‫ف‬َ‫ي‬ َ‫و‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ه‬َ‫ر‬َ‫م‬َ‫أ‬ ‫ا‬َ‫م‬ َ َّ‫اَّلل‬ َ‫ون‬ُ‫ص‬ْ‫ع‬َ‫ي‬ َّ‫َل‬َ‫ون‬ُ‫ر‬َ‫م‬ْ‫ؤ‬ُ‫ي‬ ‫ا‬َ‫م‬
They do not disobey God in what He commands
them but do what they are commanded. (66:6)

8. • The angels opposed creating the human being because they predicted that the human being
will cause corruption on the earth and shed blood.
• But they did not have any choice to prostrate to Adam or not when God commanded them.

And [mention, O Muhammad], when your Lord said to the angels, "Indeed, I will make
upon the earth a successive authority." They said, "Will You place upon it one who causes
corruption therein and sheds blood, while we declare Your praise and sanctify You?" Allah
said, "Indeed, I know that which you do not know."
And He taught Adam the names - all of them. Then He showed them to the angels and
said, "Inform Me of the names of these, if you are truthful."
They said, "Exalted are You; we have no knowledge except what You have taught us.
Indeed, it is You who is the Knowing, the Wise."
He said, "O Adam, inform them of their names." And when he had informed them of their
names, He said, "Did I not tell you that I know the unseen [aspects] of the heavens and the
earth? And I know what you reveal and what you have concealed."
And [mention] when We said to the angels, "Prostrate before Adam"; so they prostrated,
except for Iblees. He refused and was arrogant and became of the disbelievers.

9. Their Tasks
• They are delegated different tasks to perform.
• For example, the angel Gabriel (Jibreel) is called the Holy
Spirit because he is the source of prophetic or divine
revelation, and responsible for carrying the revelations to
prophets.
َ‫ع‬ ُ‫ه‬َ‫ل‬َّ‫َز‬‫ن‬ ُ‫ه‬َّ‫ن‬ِ‫إ‬َ‫ف‬ َ‫ل‬‫ي‬ ِ‫ْر‬‫ب‬ ِ‫ج‬ِ‫ل‬ ‫ا‬ ًّ‫ُو‬‫د‬َ‫ع‬ َ‫ان‬َ‫ك‬ ‫ن‬َ‫م‬ ْ‫ل‬ُ‫ق‬ِ‫ل‬ ‫ا‬ً‫ق‬ِ‫د‬َ‫ص‬ُ‫م‬ ِ َّ‫اَّلل‬ ِ‫ن‬ْ‫ذ‬ِ‫إ‬ِ‫ب‬ َ‫ك‬ِ‫ب‬ْ‫ل‬َ‫ق‬ َٰ‫ى‬َ‫ل‬ُ‫ه‬ َ‫و‬ ِ‫ه‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫د‬َ‫ي‬ َ‫ْن‬‫ي‬َ‫ب‬ ‫ا‬َ‫م‬‫ًى‬‫د‬
َ‫ين‬ِ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ْ‫ؤ‬ُ‫م‬ْ‫ل‬ِ‫ل‬ َٰ‫ى‬ َ‫ر‬ْ‫ش‬ُ‫ب‬ َ‫و‬
Say, "Whoever is an enemy to Gabriel - it is [none but] he who
has brought the Qur'an down upon your heart, [O Muhammad],
by permission of Allah , confirming that which was before it and
as guidance and good tidings for the believers." (2:97)

10. •َ‫ن‬ْ‫ي‬َّ‫ف‬َ‫ق‬ َ‫و‬ َ‫اب‬َ‫ت‬ِ‫ك‬ْ‫ال‬ ‫ى‬َ‫س‬‫و‬ُ‫م‬ ‫َا‬‫ن‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫ت‬‫آ‬ ْ‫د‬َ‫ق‬َ‫ل‬ َ‫و‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫ت‬‫آ‬ َ‫و‬ ۖ ِ‫ل‬ُ‫س‬ُّ‫الر‬ِ‫ب‬ ِ‫ه‬ِ‫د‬ْ‫ع‬َ‫ب‬ ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ ‫ا‬َ‫ْن‬‫ب‬‫ا‬ ‫ى‬َ‫س‬‫ي‬ِ‫ع‬ ‫َا‬‫ن‬
ْ‫ال‬ ِ‫وح‬ُ‫ر‬ِ‫ب‬ ُ‫ه‬‫َا‬‫ن‬ْ‫د‬َّ‫ي‬َ‫أ‬ َ‫و‬ ِ‫ت‬‫َا‬‫ن‬ِ‫ي‬َ‫ب‬ْ‫ال‬ َ‫م‬َ‫ي‬ ْ‫ر‬َ‫م‬ِ‫ُس‬‫د‬ُ‫ق‬
• And We did certainly give Moses the Torah and
followed up after him with messengers. And We
gave Jesus, the son of Mary, clear proofs and
supported him with the holy Spirit. (2:87)

11. • Beside Gabriel, Quran mentioned other angels, such
as Mikal (Michael).
َ‫و‬ ِ‫ه‬ِ‫ل‬ُ‫س‬ُ‫ر‬ َ‫و‬ ِ‫ه‬ِ‫ت‬َ‫ك‬ِ‫ئ‬ َ‫َل‬َ‫م‬ َ‫و‬ ِ َّ ِ‫َّلل‬ ‫ا‬ ًّ‫ُو‬‫د‬َ‫ع‬ َ‫ان‬َ‫ك‬ ‫ن‬َ‫م‬َ‫ع‬ َ َّ‫اَّلل‬ َّ‫ن‬ِ‫إ‬َ‫ف‬ َ‫ل‬‫ا‬َ‫ك‬‫ي‬ِ‫م‬ َ‫و‬ َ‫ل‬‫ي‬ ِ‫ْر‬‫ب‬ ِ‫ج‬َ‫ين‬ ِ‫ر‬ِ‫ف‬‫ا‬َ‫ك‬ْ‫ل‬ِ‫ل‬ ‫ُو‬‫د‬
Whoever is an enemy to Allah and His angels and His
messengers and Gabriel and Michael - then indeed, Allah is
an enemy to the disbelievers. (2:98)

12. • The angel of death is responsible for parting the soul
from the body of the dead.
ِ‫ب‬ َ‫ل‬ِ‫ك‬ ُ‫و‬ ‫ي‬ِ‫ذ‬َّ‫ال‬ ِ‫ت‬ ْ‫و‬َ‫م‬ْ‫ال‬ ُ‫ك‬َ‫ل‬َّ‫م‬ ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬‫ا‬َّ‫ف‬ َ‫و‬َ‫ت‬َ‫ي‬ ْ‫ل‬ُ‫ق‬ُ‫ع‬َ‫ج‬ ْ‫ر‬ُ‫ت‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬ِ‫ب‬ َ‫ر‬ َٰ‫ى‬َ‫ل‬ِ‫إ‬ َّ‫م‬ُ‫ث‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬َ‫ون‬
Say, "The angel of death will take you who has been
entrusted with you. Then to your Lord you will be
returned." (32:11)

13. • Angels of punishment (Zabaniyya) are Guardians of
Hell.
ُ‫ه‬َ‫ي‬ِ‫د‬‫َا‬‫ن‬ ُ‫ع‬ْ‫د‬َ‫ي‬ْ‫ل‬َ‫ف‬.َ‫ة‬َ‫ي‬ِ‫ن‬‫ا‬َ‫ب‬َّ‫الز‬ ُ‫ع‬ْ‫د‬َ‫ن‬َ‫س‬
Then let him call his associates; We will call the
angels of Hell. (96:17-18)

14. • The guardian angels (Hafaza) help the person fight attacks from the Devils and demons,
and keep people from death until its decreed time and who bring down blessings.
َ‫ج‬ ‫ا‬َ‫ذ‬ِ‫إ‬ َٰ‫ى‬َّ‫ت‬َ‫ح‬ ً‫ة‬َ‫ظ‬َ‫ف‬َ‫ح‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫ل‬َ‫ع‬ ُ‫ل‬ِ‫س‬ ْ‫ر‬ُ‫ي‬ َ‫و‬ ۖ ِ‫ه‬ِ‫د‬‫ا‬َ‫ب‬ِ‫ع‬ َ‫ق‬ ْ‫و‬َ‫ف‬ ُ‫ر‬ِ‫ه‬‫ا‬َ‫ق‬ْ‫ال‬ َ‫و‬ُ‫ه‬ َ‫و‬َ‫ن‬ُ‫ل‬ُ‫س‬ُ‫ر‬ ُ‫ه‬ْ‫ت‬َّ‫ف‬ َ‫و‬َ‫ت‬ ُ‫ت‬ ْ‫و‬َ‫م‬ْ‫ال‬ ُ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬َ‫د‬َ‫ح‬َ‫أ‬ َ‫ء‬‫ا‬َ‫ف‬ُ‫ي‬ َ‫َل‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ه‬ َ‫و‬ ‫ا‬َ‫ون‬ُ‫ط‬ ِ‫ر‬
And He is the subjugator over His servants, and He sends over you guardian-angels until,
when death comes to one of you, Our messengers take him, and they do not fail [in their
duties]. (6:61)
ُ‫ه‬َ‫ل‬ِ َّ‫اَّلل‬ ِ‫ر‬ْ‫م‬َ‫أ‬ ْ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ ُ‫ه‬َ‫ن‬‫و‬ُ‫ظ‬َ‫ف‬ْ‫ح‬َ‫ي‬ ِ‫ه‬ِ‫ف‬ْ‫َل‬‫خ‬ ْ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ َ‫و‬ ِ‫ه‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫د‬َ‫ي‬ ِ‫ْن‬‫ي‬َ‫ب‬ ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ ٌ‫ات‬َ‫ب‬ِ‫ق‬َ‫ع‬ُ‫م‬
For each one are successive [angels] before and behind him who protect him by the decree of
Allah . (13:11)
Also, they keep track of every good and bad deed that each person performs in their books.
On the Day of Judgment, they will be used to determine if this person is worthy of admission
into paradise.
ٌ‫ظ‬ِ‫ف‬‫ا‬َ‫ح‬ ‫ا‬َ‫ه‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫ل‬َ‫ع‬ ‫ا‬َّ‫م‬َّ‫ل‬ ٍ‫س‬ْ‫ف‬َ‫ن‬ ُّ‫ل‬ُ‫ك‬ ‫ن‬ِ‫إ‬
There is no soul but that it has over it a protector. 86:4
َّ‫ن‬ِ‫إ‬ َ‫و‬َ‫ين‬ِ‫ظ‬ِ‫ف‬‫ا‬َ‫ح‬َ‫ل‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ك‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫ل‬َ‫ع‬.َ‫ين‬ِ‫ب‬ِ‫ت‬‫ا‬َ‫ك‬ ‫ا‬ً‫م‬‫ا‬ َ‫ر‬ِ‫ك‬.َ‫ون‬ُ‫ل‬َ‫ع‬ْ‫ف‬َ‫ت‬ ‫ا‬َ‫م‬ َ‫ون‬ُ‫م‬َ‫ل‬ْ‫ع‬َ‫ي‬
And indeed, [appointed] over you are keepers, Noble and recording; They know whatever
you do. (82:10-12)

15. Jinn
• In addition to the angels, we believe in the existence of another
invisible creature, which is Jinn. While the angels were created
from light, the Jinn were created from fire.
ٍ‫ار‬َّ‫ن‬ ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ ٍ‫ج‬ ِ‫ار‬َّ‫م‬ ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ َّ‫ان‬َ‫ج‬ْ‫ال‬ َ‫ق‬َ‫ل‬َ‫خ‬ َ‫و‬
And He created the jinn from a smokeless flame of fire.
(55:15)

16. • Maybe the angels were created from the light of fire, and the
Jinn were created from the flame of fire. Unlike angles, Jinn
have the freedom of choice, so there are believer Jinn and
disbeliever Jinn. The disbeliever Jinn are called devils or
demons. They are descendants or helpers of the Devil (Satan).
God warned us of them, because they tempt humans to sin and
cause despair and doubt.

And [mention] when We said to the angels, "Prostrate to Adam,"
and they prostrated, except for Satan (Iblees). He was of the jinn
and departed from the command of his Lord. Then will you take
him and his descendants as allies other than Me while they are
enemies to you? Wretched it is for the wrongdoers as an
exchange. (18:50)

17. • Whisperings of demons may enter the hearts of humans,
especially in states of strong emotion like depression or
anger.

Say, "I seek refuge in the Lord of mankind, The Sovereign
of mankind. The God of mankind, From the evil of the
retreating whisperer - Who whispers [evil] into the breasts
of mankind - From among the jinn and mankind." (114:1-6)

18. • There is a complete chapter (surah) in the Qur'an
called (The Jinn). This chapter informs us that
Prophet Muhammad was not sent as a prophet only
to all the human beings, but also to the jinn.

• Say, [O Muhammad], "It has been revealed to me that a group of the jinn listened and said,
'Indeed, we have heard an amazing Qur'an. It guides to the right course, and we have
believed in it. And we will never associate with our Lord anyone. And [it teaches] that
exalted is the nobleness of our Lord; He has not taken a wife or a son. And that our foolish
one has been saying about Allah an excessive transgression. And we had thought that
mankind and the jinn would never speak about Allah a lie. And there were men from
mankind who sought refuge in men from the jinn, so they [only] increased them in burden.
And they had thought, as you thought, that Allah would never send anyone [as a messenger].
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. And
among us are the righteous, and among us are [others] not so; we were [of] divided ways.
And we have become certain that we will never cause failure to Allah upon earth, nor can we
escape Him by flight. And when we heard the guidance, we believed in it. And whoever
believes in his Lord will not fear deprivation or burden. And among us are Muslims [in
submission to Allah ], and among us are the unjust. And whoever has become Muslim -
those have sought out the right course. But as for the unjust, they will be, for Hell, firewood.'
(72:1-15)

20. • In addition, qur’anic discourse, in many parts, was addressed to
both the human beings and the jinn, as the second person or the
hearer.

O company of jinn and mankind, if you are able to pass
beyond the regions of the heavens and the earth, then pass.
You will not pass except by authority [from Allah ].
So which of the favors of your Lord would you deny?
(55:33-34)

21. • Actually, God created both for the same purpose.

And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to
worship Me.
I do not want from them any provision, nor do I want them
to feed Me.
Indeed, it is Allah who is the [continual] Provider, the firm
possessor of strength. (51:56-58)

22. • God subjected the Jinn to the prophet Solomon to build
and dive for him.
ِ ْ‫ال‬ َ‫و‬ ِ‫ن‬ ِ‫ج‬ْ‫ال‬ َ‫ن‬ِ‫م‬ ُ‫ه‬ُ‫د‬‫و‬ُ‫ن‬ُ‫ج‬ َ‫ان‬َ‫م‬ْ‫ي‬َ‫ل‬ُ‫س‬ِ‫ل‬ َ‫ر‬ِ‫ش‬ُ‫ح‬ َ‫و‬َ‫ون‬ُ‫ع‬ َ‫وز‬ُ‫ي‬ ْ‫م‬ُ‫ه‬َ‫ف‬ ِ‫ْر‬‫ي‬َّ‫الط‬ َ‫و‬ ِ‫نس‬
And gathered for Solomon were his soldiers of the jinn and
men and birds, and they were [marching] in rows. (27:17)

23. • Prophet Solomon died while he was leaning on his stick. As he remained
upright, propped on his stick, the jinn thought he was still alive and
supervising them, so they continued to work, until a bug ate Solomon's stick
and then his body collapsed, so the Jinn realized that he was died.

And to Solomon [We subjected] the wind - its morning [journey was that of] a
month - and its afternoon [journey was that of] a month, and We made flow for
him a spring of [liquid] copper. And among the jinn were those who worked for
him by the permission of his Lord. And whoever deviated among them from Our
command - We will make him taste of the punishment of the Blaze. They made
for him what he willed of elevated chambers, statues, bowls like reservoirs, and
stationary kettles. [We said], "Work, O family of David, in gratitude." And few of
My servants are grateful. And when We decreed for Solomon death, nothing
indicated to the jinn his death except a creature of the earth eating his staff. But
when he fell, it became clear to the jinn that if they had known the unseen, they
would not have remained in humiliating punishment. (34:12-14)

24. • Some Muslims believe in some superstitions about Jinn,
such as that jinn can enter human bodies, they have
amorous affairs with humans, or somebody saw them. But
the Quran states that no person can see the jinn.

O children of Adam, let not Satan tempt you as he removed
your parents from Paradise, stripping them of their clothing
to show them their private parts. Indeed, he sees you, he and
his tribe, from where you do not see them. Indeed, We have
made the devils allies to those who do not believe. (7:27)

25. Satan
• Like Adam is the father of human beings, Satan
(Iblis) is the father of devils or demons (disbeliever
Jinn). Satan was with Angels in the heaven when
God commanded them to prostrate to Adam, but he
did not prostrate. So he disobeyed God, and Quran
considered that as disbelieving in God. So
disbelieving in God is not just to deny His
existence, but also disobeying Him.

26. • But why were angels commanded to prostrate to Adam?
It might be to uncover the haughtiness of the Iblis, or
because human are thought to rank higher than angels.
Humans supremacy, is due to that human is able to
evolve and therefore overcome his flaws, although they,
unlike angles, shed blood.

27. [So mention] when your Lord said to the angels:
• "Indeed, I am going to create a human being from clay. So when I have proportioned him and breathed
into him of My [created] soul, then fall down to him in prostration."
So the angels prostrated - all of them entirely. Except Iblees; he was arrogant and became among the
disbelievers. [God] said,
• "O Iblees, what prevented you from prostrating to that which I created with My hands? Were you
arrogant [then], or were you [already] among the haughty?"
He said,
• "I am better than him. You created me from fire and created him from clay."
[God] said,
• "Then get out of Paradise, for indeed, you are expelled. And indeed, upon you is My curse until the Day
of Recompense."
He said,
• "My Lord, then reprieve me until the Day they are resurrected."
[God] said,
• "So indeed, you are of those reprieved. Until the Day of the time well-known."
[Iblees] said,
• "By your might, I will surely mislead them all. Except, among them, Your chosen servants.“
[God] said,
• "The truth [is My oath], and the truth I say - [That] I will surely fill Hell with you and those of them that
follow you all together." (38:71-85)
