Surah “The Jinn”

(Muhammad), say, "It has been revealed to me that a party of jinn has listened (to the recitation) of the Quran and has told (their people), "We heard an amazing reading

which guides people to the right path and we believe in it. We shall never consider anyone equal to our Lord

our Lord is too exalted to have either a wife or son

The dimwit one (the devil) among us has been telling confused lies about God

We thought that no man or jinn could ever tell lies about God

"Certain human beings sought refuge with certain jinn and this increased the rebelliousness of those jinn

Those people thought, like you, that God would never send down a Messenger

"We went near the heavens but found it to be full of strong guards and shooting flames

We used to sit near by and try to listen to the heavens, but shooting flames now await those who try to do that

We do not know whether by this arrangement God intends benefit and guidance for the people of the earth or only evil

As for us, some of us are righteous and others are not. We have all followed different ways

We knew that we could never challenge God whether we stayed on earth or fled elsewhere

Now that we have listened to the guidance, we believe in it. Whoever believes in his Lord does not need to fear loss or oppression

Some of us are Muslims and some of us have deviated from the Truth. Whoever has embraced Islam has followed the right guidance

However, the deviators from the Truth will be the fuel for hell"

Had they (jinn and mankind) remained steadfast in their religion (Islam), We would certainly have given them abundant water to drink

as a trial for them. God will make those who disregard the guidance from their Lord suffer increasing torment

All the parts of the body to be placed on the ground during prostration belong to God

Do not prostrate before anyone other than Him. When the servant of God (Muhammad) preached (his message) the jinn would all crowd around him

(Muhammad), say, "I worship only my Lord and do not consider anyone equal to Him"

Say, "I do not possess any power to harm or benefit you"

Say, "No one can protect me from God, nor can I find any place of refuge but with him

My only (means of protection) is to convey the message of God. Whoever disobeys God and His Messenger will go to hell, wherein he will live forever"

(On the Day of Judgment) when the disbelievers witness that with which they have been threatened, they will then know whose helpers are weaker and fewer in number

(Muhammad), say, "I do not know whether that with which you have been threatened is close by or whether my Lord will prolong the time of its coming

He knows the unseen and He does not allow anyone to know His secrets except those of His Messengers whom He chooses

He causes angelic guards to march before and after him

(Messenger) so that He would know that the Messengers have conveyed the message of their Lord. He encompasses all that is with them and He keeps a precise account of all things"
