Praise be to Allaah
The jinn was created from the creation of God, created from fire before the creation of Adam, as the Almighty says: (And we have created man from the clay of old unclean, and the Gardens we created before from the fire of the poison) Stone / 26-270.

Just as Adam has an offspring, so does Satan as an offspring, as the Almighty says about the devil: "Do not take him and his offspring as guardians of my children, and they are a bad enemy to you who are oppressors instead."

God created the jinn and mankind to worship him. He who entered Paradise, and his stick entered the Fire: "And I did not create the jinn and the mankind except to worship, what I want of them, and what I want to feed." (Al-Zarqiyat 56-58).

The department is all charged like the people including the believer, including the unbeliever, the obedient and the sinner, as God Almighty said about them:

And the punishment of the jinn in the Hereafter is like man, as Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): "And I am among us Muslims and among us the Qastites.

And the jinn and all mankind shall stand for the reckoning on the Day of Resurrection before the Lord of the Worlds: no man shall be delayed or escaped from them: (O men of the jinn and mankind, if you can be carried out from the places of the heavens and the earth).

And whoever tries to escape the jinn and mankind from the account, he will not be able, as the Almighty said: "He will send to you a multitude of fire and copper, so you will not win."

And when the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) was in Makkah, Allaah forgave him from the jinn, so they heard the Qur'aan and were influenced by it: (And when we sent to you a number of the jinn, they listened to the Qur'aan and when they came to him they said:

Some of the jinn believed when they heard the Qur'aan, as the Almighty said: (Say: "I have been told that he has heard a jinn from the jinn and said, 'We have heard a wonderful reading, guide to the majority, and we will not associate with our Lord anyone.')

Both Adam and Satan fell into disobedience, but Adam remorse and repent to God: (Adam received from his Lord words Vtab it is the repentant the Merciful) Cow / 37.

As for the devil, he refused and was proud, and he was one of those who disbelieved: "When we said to the angels, prostrate to Adam, they worshiped only the devil, my father, and was proud, and he was one of the unbelievers."

And whoever disobeys Allaah is arrogant from the jinn and mankind. He is following the devil, and he will be entangled with him in the fire of hell, if he does not repent, as the Almighty says to Satan: "He said: Verily, verily, I say, 'I hope hell from you and those who followed you from all of them.

And the parents of the beneficent of mankind and the oath are cooperating on righteousness and piety, and the guardians of the devil from mankind and the jinn cooperate in sin and transgression. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning): "And we have also made every prophet an enemy of demons of mankind and of the oath.

And the jinn had seats in the sky to steal the hearing when God sent his Messenger Muhammad peace be upon him prevented this and heard from them burned Balmsh as God told the Jinn said: (and I have seen the sky and found it filled with a strong sense and a people, He listens now and finds him a watchful eye (Jinn) 8-9.

The section with us in this land, but from the mercy of God that they see us and we do not see them, as the Almighty said about the devil and kisses: (He sees you and kisses from where you do not see them) Customs / 27.

And those who see you and you do not see it is your enemy is more dangerous, so you must always be careful and guard against the demons of mankind and the Department.
