AS SALAAMU ALAYKUM WARAHMATULLAH WARAHMATULLAH. LET'S START TONIGHT'S EDUCATION. OUR TOPIC IS 👇. *THE WORLD OF JINNS (Episode 2)*___*PAGE 1*___. ✍️...
An ifreet (strong one) from the jinns said: I will bring it [her throne] to you before you rise from your place (council). And verily, I am indeed strong, and trustworthy for such work. One with whom was knowledge of the Scripture said: I will bring it to you within the twinkling of an eye! then when Sulaymaan saw it placed before him, he said, This is by the Grace of my Lord [al-Naml 27:39-40].

*THE FOOD AND DRINK OF THE JINN*
The jinn eat and drink. Ibn Masood said: The Messenger of Allāh (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) said: Someone from among the jinn called me, and I went with him and recited Qur'an for them. He took us and showed us the traces of where they had been and the traces of their fires. They asked him for food and he said, You can have every bone on which the name of Allāh has been mentioned that comes into your possession, as meat, and all the droppings as food for your animals. The Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) said, So do not use [these things] for cleaning yourselves [after relieving oneself], for they are the food and provision of your brothers. (Reported by Muslim, 450).

According to another report: A delegation of jinn from Naseebeen came to me, and what good jinn they are! They asked me for food and I prayed to Allāh for them, so that they would not pass by bones or droppings, but they would find food on them. (Reported by al-Bukhaari, 3571). The believing jinn may eat any bone on which the name of Allāh has been mentioned, because the Messenger (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) did not permit them to have anything on which Allāh's name has not been mentioned those are for the kuffaar among the jinn.

*THE DWELLING-PLACES OF THE JINN*
The jinn live on this earth where we do. They are mostly to be found in ruins and unclean places like bathrooms, dunghills, garbage dumps and graveyards. Hence the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) taught us to take precautions when entering such places, by reciting the adhkaar (prayers) prescribed by Islam. One of these was reported by Anas ibn Maalik (may Allāh be pleased with him), who said:.

When the Messenger of Allāh (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) entered the toilet, he would say, Allaahumma innee aoodhu bika min al-khubuthi wal-khabaaith (O Allāh, I seek refuge with You from the evil ones, male and female).
(Reported by al-Bukhaari, 142; and Muslim, 375).
Al-Khattaabi explained that khubuth is the plural of khabeeth (evil or dirty masculine form), and khabaaith is the plural of khabeethah (evil or dirty feminine form), and that what is meant is male and female shayaateen.

*SOME JINNS ARE MUSLIMS AND SOME ARE KAAFIRS*
Allāh tells us that some of the jinn said:
And some of us are Muslims, and of us some are al-qaasitoon (disbelievers those who have deviated from the Right Path). And whosoever has embraced Islam, then such have sought the Right Path. And as for the qaasitoon, they shall be firewood for Hell. [al-Jinn 72:14-15].

The Muslims among the jinn are of different levels as regards righteousness and taqwa. Allāh says:
[Some jinn said:] There are among us some that are righteous, and some the contrary; we are groups, each having a different way (religious sects, etc.) [al-Jinn 72:11].
___*PAGE 8*___. ✍️...
*THE RECKONING ON THE DAY OF RESURRECTION*
The jinn will be called to account on the day of Resurrection. Mujaahid (may Allāh have mercy on him) said, concerning the verse: but the jinns know well that they have indeed to appear (before Him) (i.e., they will be brought to account) [al-Saffaat 37:158]:
They will be brought to judgement. Saheeh al-Bukhaari, Baab Dhikr al-Jinn wa Thawaabihim wa Iqaabihim.

*PROTECTION FROM THE HARM OF JINN*
Because the jinn can see us while we cannot see them, the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) taught us many ways to protect ourselves from their harm, such as seeking refuge with Allāh from the accursed Satan, reciting Surat al-Falaq and Surat al-Naas (the last two Surahs of the Qur'an), and reciting the words taught by Allāh in the Qur'an: Say: My Lord! I seek refuge with You from the whisperings (suggestions) of the shayaateen (devils). And I seek refuge with You, my Lord, lest they may attend (or come near) me. [al-Mu'minun 23:97-98].

Saying Bismillaah (in the Name of Allāh) before entering ones home, before eating or drinking, and before having intercourse will also keep Satan away from the house or partaking with a person in his food, drink and sexual activity. Similarly, mentioning the name of Allāh before entering the toilet or taking off ones clothes will prevent the jinn from seeing a persons nakedness or harming him, as the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allāh be upon him) said, To put a barrier that will prevent the jinn from seeing the nakedness of the sons of Adam, let any one of you say Bismillaah when entering the toilet.
(Reported by al-Tirmidhi, 551; Saheeh al-Jaami, 3611).
