Jin: "this fool actually believes reading the Quran is gonna help him... Surely you aren't gonna read it and think I will be gone... stupidity of this magnitude can't possibly exist"
According to the Qur’aan, demons are not a third type of spiritual beings. A demon is an evil jinn or an evil human being since both have free will. A Satan(Arabic Shaitaan) is an evil Jinn/human. There is no concept of falling angles in the Quran (it’s debatable).
There is! Two jinns which names I forgot but they are in the quran. These two angles were sent to earth (and became judges I believe) but they ended sleeping with a woman and they had a bad ending
@@salmamaria2081 That's an Israeli story it was confirmed to be false by our shaiks also we Muslims believe that angels would never do something wrong beside the funny thing about the story is that the woman become a planet ?! That doesn't make sense which just make it clear that it's false.
Actually it's argued that Iblis was an Angel that disobeyed God. There are many within the Islamic scholar community who debate for and against this. Look it up online, you can see that it's not known for sure if in fact Angels are completely without free-will or if there's various tiers of angels at different levels of heaven. It is suspected that Iblis presided as the leader over the lowest level of heaven and over Earth. He had immense power over the other Angels that followed his commands, which would suggest that he was an Angel himself. Also, the Surah in which Allah commands Angels to bow to Adam, only directs this command to the Angels. There's no mention that this command was also intended for Jinn. So this would suggest that Iblis was in fact an Angel -- a very powerful and arrogant one.
As an Egyptian who grew up with these stories, this video is largely accurate but there are a few things that weren’t mentioned about jinn, like the fact that jinn and demons are actually part of the same race. Demons are jinn as well, but they are jinn who, when Adam was created, refused to bow to Adam as God commanded them to do because they believed themselves superior to humans and then proceeded to rebel against God. This led God to banish them from heaven and condemn all of them to hell when judgment day comes. Another thing is that jinn can go to heaven or hell just like humans do, and that jinn who go to hell get tortured just like humans do.
Another side note is angels are also neutrals too, unlike the popular perception of other beliefs that they r solely ordered for doing good. They can get commands from God for torturing the evils at hell. They will fight for protecting the holy lands against the Antichrist aka Deccal.
another fact i've heard : Jinns/Demons never appear with shadow . cause they're not physical being like us . . they are paranormal . so, differing a Jinn from a normal person is just a glance . but it makes me think, when human's encounter these paranormal creatures . . . i mean , how exactly they face cause when the thing has no shadow it don't reflect light either . and which has nothing with shadow that don't reflects light and that just can't be seen . . . . . and another thing i've heard that these creatures are of electro magnetic field . you can find many contents in you tube also thousands of ghost hunting videos claiming to have encountered paranormal creature by a particular device catching magnetic forces through the environment . So, i think we need more knowledge to be fed and needs more vast and deeper analysis . It's truly sad that usual humans even todays modern world face this sort of horror and no one tends to it thanks to unscientific , when this is the fact then aso the meaning of scientific is to be described . rather than babbling superstitious a vast sorting of analysis goes for this world, which is the_ Aid .
I'm a huge fan of the Thousand and One Nights and of jinn in particular, and it's always killed me how popular culture has reduced them to a wish-granting servant race. It's so good to see someone setting the record straight!
@@MrPopoCoalti All stories are made up if you think about it. But all jokes aside, there is actually a story about Aladdin in the region that was probably the base for the Disney film. They just took the original story, tweaked some plot elements added some songs and Robin Williams, and boom. You get a disney flick.
The concept of immensely powerful beings that live in between worlds is great and lends itself super well to some modern day urban fantasy. Like the standard shadow world trope is literally built right into them and you get the bonus that you aren't just making it up, you're actually building on an established tradition so it becomes a lot more believable. You could make a super cool urban fantasy with them that also incorporated other elements of Islamic beliefs. The fact that they're also established as thinking and feeling beings is really interesting especially the fact that they actually believe in a religion themselves. You never get that in urban fantasy and it'd bee really cool to hear what thoughts on religion a super natural being would have. Usually it's just never really explored in urban fantasy because some religion is just right without question or everyone is just weirdly agnostic. Would be cool to see a super natural being actually observe a religion and it'd also be way more interesting to have an agnostic or atheist one because they'd have totally different reasons for thinking that way. Basically they were already very human in many ways so they'd make for great characters and it'd be completely inline with the established mythology unlike when the Archangel Gabriel is strangely human.
mongol burnt baghdad down with it's house of wisdom.maybe the great library was home to 1000 and one night book collections. sad its became 280 night. now the dark part of the story is no longer exist.
Solomon had occult knowledge taught to him by the angels that allowed him to subdue the jinn and make him do his bidding - he famously put the more violent ones into bottles and threw them into the sea so they couldn't stab him in the back. Sounds a bit like cross-dimensional colonialism, doesn't it?
@@youtubeshadowbannedme The mosque underground Masjid Al Aqsa compound is the actual Masjid Al Aqsa built by jinns with Solomon's (p.b.u.h) command. You can see the structure , doesn't look manmade.
talking from the heart of Arabia, let me add more to the myth Jins do have clans and tribes (mirroring the community that gave birth to the myth) they are classified according to their powers, the strongest race hold the name (Maread) Arabs thought of the genius as having a Jin friend who helps him, until now the word for genius in Arabic (Abqari) is derived from the term (Apqar) a Valley name where a tribe of jin is thought to help those in their surroundings. the most famous Arab poetry was considered wrote with the help of jin God made them servant to king Solomon (hence his ultimate power) they were involved in the story of 'queen of Sheba' , they brought her thorn when she came to visit Solomon, as Solomon tried to impress her with his abilities. they are far more numerous than humans there can be a friendship between a human and jin, in that case he is called (Qarien) jin are involved in magic ( by worshiping some of their leaders they will grant you some powers or do you some wishes) In Islamic perspective the devil is a jinn who went astray In Islamic perspective the devil is a jinn who went astray , not a falling angel has Christianity imagine it. (angels do not have freewill in Islamic perspective hence they cant chose to be good or bad , they are good by default) Want more?
As an Arab Muslim,I remember jinn stories from my cousins used to scare the crap out of me ,but this video sparked my interest for جن in general again,they're biography and history is so rich imo

My all time favorite episode! ❤❤❤ I love Arabic folklore and I'm so glad to see it discussed. Thank you, Monstrum team, for diving into this wonderful subject!
That 55th Chapter of the Quran is Surat Ar Rahman, which warns both Human (An Naas) and Jinn (Al Jinn) of the Lord's favor, as the chapter has the refrain; "Which, then, of your Lord’s blessings do you both deny?"
@S C True. These are fun tales, but people take them seriously and we get priests beating people with mental illnesses to "cure" then of jinns. Fantasies should remain fantasies.
Jinns, like human also have major races of their species, which are ifrit, marid, jan, and syaitan (satan in english). Also having several minor races such as ghoul and others (i did read a lot of information about this about 8 years ago so i forgot most of this stuff) In that reading, before humans starting to reside on earth, the world was occupied by djinns including the earth up until beyond the space and they were able to terraform terrains. Meaning, they could terraform planets that is in habitable region into a planet comfortable enough to live. However, as they lived across the universe, some wanted to be superior above others and waged war. Note that major djinn personality is usually destructive, fueled with rage, egoistic, and for some, arrogant. They always put interest, lust and emotion above mind. It was a very terrible war with major casualties, killing most of the species. Hence, the god sent the angels to wipe out all the terrible among the species including all their technologies and leave only the innocents with nothing left for them except food and a place to live. Also, the god commanded the angels to pick one of them to heaven (i assumed that the intention was to pick up one of them to teach about religion then send the chosen one back to the surviving community to share what he has learned since the god intended the djinns to worship Him, plus i am uncertain which race does the chosen one belonged to) Thus the djinn that was picked up lived among the angels and proved himself to be very, very dedicated in gaining the god's favor. the djinn rised up ranks gradually and for a very, very long time, he finally became someone ranked similar to the archangels due to vast knowledge and merit. note that angels only have mind and emotion, they don't have interest and lust. one day, the god decided to create a new creature to be sent to earth, thus angels asked the god, "are You creating another creature that might be causing a lot of damage and massacre while you already having us that are always praising You?" and the God replied "I know what you don't know." After the god created the creature, He commanded all that present in heaven to bow down to pay respect to the creature. all of the angels did bow down, paying respect except one, the djinn. the god asked the djinn why he didn't bow down, hence the djinn answered he does not have any reason to bow down, and questioned why would he bow down to some new creature that is just made of clay, plus he claimed that the god created the djinn from smokeless fire, which is much better and superior than clay (this part explains that the chosen djinn is just being disrespectful and believed himself to be at higher lever or superior or better than the new creature; lets say that this djinn sees the new creature as a very low life peasant and himself a noble) then after hearing those words, the god then asked the djinn to get out of the heaven and told him that he is no longer entitled to stay inside it any more. the god said that the djinn will be end up in hell (even though the written conversation was short, i assumed that the god meant that the djinn will enter hell after he died for being disrespectful, while implied that he has time to reflect on himself while alive and get a chance to repent so he can change his fate.) but the djinn let his own ego get over him, promised the god to cause the new creature to astray and also enter the hell with him. then the god said if there is anyone that follow the djinn, then He will fill both of them in hell altogether. the djinn then requested that for him to do so, he wanted to be let alive until the day of judgement, then the god accepted his request before sending him off back to where he was from.
This is Islam's story of how Iblees a.k.a Lucifer came to be which makes a lot more sense to me considering how could an Archangel disobey God's words so arrogantly?
*Jinn pulls up with aggressive intentions* Jinn: y'know wassup now fool Me: *pulls up ayatul Kursi and surah nas* Jinn: Yo yo yo chill bro I swear I was just messing with you. Let's talk about this
It was based off Aladdin. Most of the Witcher short stories from The Last Wish (which was adapted into the show) are twists on the disney tales we know so well
Omg yess. As soon as I saw the picture of the fisherman and his net, I instantly recalled the image of Geralt standing at the riverbank fishing for a Jinn.

This is not a joke. There are like thousands and thousands of real-life experiences people have had including my family members, especially my mother. One of the many incidents that have occurred happened 2 months ago. My mother just woke up at 6 or 5 AM in the morning. She just laid down again after drinking water when she saw a girl beside her bed who she thought was my elder sister. So she called her towards her by her hand and when that girl came closer to her face she realized that it was someone else. It was a young girl with similar features of my sister and she kept on smiling at her. After just a few seconds of that encounter, that thing vanished completely and my mother said she turned into smoke. This is just one of the many incidents I know of. There's one I experienced myself as well and whenever you recite verses from the Quran they thankfully vanish.
I'm from Iran and when i was a kid i used to be really scared of the jinns. Me and my friends would tell horror stories to eachother about people being possesed by these mysterious beings. Some said they like bathrooms, some said they are short creatures with hooves, some said they are scared of metal so you should put a piece of it under your pillow.I vaguely remember there was a talk about a book that you could summon one to help you but for a cost of its choice. We were children back then and not many people Really belive in these folktales but even now my heart beats faster by telling these. It shows how deep the effects of culture are in our minds. In Turkey for example some don't even prounounce jinn and say in rough translation "the being with three letters"( in turkish its written as Cin) There are some really quality horror movies in both Iranian and turkish languages for horror movie enthusiats. To name a few Under the shadows(persian), dabbe:the curse of the jinn (turkish) .they are both available on Netflix.
The whole concept of not using the direct name of a creature is also popular in Slavic cultures. For example a Slavic name for a bear mean "those who eat honey", some highlanders are simply calling a bear "him" and Riese monsters are referred to as "they". These come from an old Slavic belief that by pronouncing a name of something or someone you summon that, so very often Slavs change the commonly used names to different ones to not summon the bearer of that name.
Again, Jinn isnt limited to the Middle east. Jinn lives everywhere. Theres Jinn in UK, USA, Canada, China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Australia, New Zealand. They are everywhere. Not jus in Middle east.
Jinn have different names in different cultures. In english-speaking cultures, they are known as faeries. Don't believe the Hollywood versions, or the tinkerbell & fern gully versions of faeries in Disney films. Faeries are not to be messed with! Anybody who practices magick knows that summoning them is asking for trouble. The same goes for Jinn. They are tricksters and are always causing mayhem to those who try to get them to do their bidding. There are always consequences in doing so. Only the most experienced witch or sorcerer should be working with dark magick, if at all.
I recommend The Golem and the Jinni by Helene Wecker for your stay-at-home reading list. Two displaced magical creatures meet in 19th century New York. A supernatural romance.

Growing up, we've been told that Jinn mainly lived in abandoned places, bathrooms, corners of rooms, basements, and lived under 'Sidra' trees. My friend's father once cut down one of those trees in his parents' back garden. One time he entered the house and went straight upstairs. 5 minutes later, someone who resembled him exaclty was seen entering the house and followed him upstairs. I don't know if my friend was serious or was making up a ghost story.
bro sameeeee. they tend to shapeshift into people we know, only to ask the actual person and have them give us a terrifiying answer that they were never there when we cross paths
my step-grandmother once saw herself in a room where i would sleep in when i come over to her house, pretty creepy. eventually we had a ruqyah done and everything's fine now
The Jinn have been part of the Jewish folklore too... It is said that King Solomon controlled an army of Jinn. Old Jewish texts also mention about the time before humans when Jinns ruled the planet similar to how humans do today. But when corruption and murder increased exponentially in the land, God sent down an army of angels along with Iblees (Satan/Lucifer) who was a jinn raised to the spirituality level of the angels trough his piety and worship. How Iblees became Satan is a different story. Jinns like Humans have free will and can choose to disobey the commands of God. For that he was punished and cursed till Judgement Day. To extract his revenge, he vowed to distract the human race from God starting with the extraction of Adam & Eve from Paradise by making them eat the fruit of the Forbidden Tree,
Has Storied ever thought about doing episodes about other mythical ideas besides monsters such as locations (e.g. El Dorado, Shangri-La)? BTW, great episode👍
@@DioBrando-yk5up They also did one on Hansel and Gretal. They're clearly interested in expanding beyond _just_ monsters into wider monsters, legends, folklore, fairy tales, etc.
Wise Solomon was both a king and a Prophet/Messenger (PBUH) to the Israelites, but NEVER a magician, even though he had power over demons, used to understand and speak animals' language, and controls the wind. It's the devils who are spreading such rumor of being a great magician about Prophet Solomon among humans. Many can possess supernatural powers, but there is a huge difference between a miracle and magic. Prophet Moses (PBUH) had proven it.
in Arabic, genius's synonym (عبقري) is a word that originally assigns a man to a place thought to be the home of jinns meaning he is from the home of jinns. so in a way genius Greek and Arabic relate in an odd interesting way. عَبقَر: (اسم) مَوْضِعٌ فِي الْجَزِيرَةِ العَرَبِيَّةِ كَانَ العَرَبُ يَعْتَقِدُونَ أَنَّهُ مَوْضِعُ الجِنِّ وَمَسْكَنُهُمْ وَيَنْسِبُونَ إِلَيْهِ كُلَّ عَجِيبٍ وَعَمَلٍ خَارِقٍ جَيِّدٍ
FYI: Every human are followed by 1 Jinn since they were born called Jinn Qarin, the Jinn will learn how human live. And when human died, they are free and continue their live with human personality they followed. And that's also explain ghost sighting which is the ghost is just a normal Jinn doing their stuff.
@@zeuxlaught2797 there are a lot if source, but mostly in Bahasa Indonesia, i can't give you any link in English. Just search Jinn Qorin / Qarin and then translate the article using google translate
I have had a running theory similar to this; we all have a "familiar spirit" that follows us throughout our lives, some are more malevolent than others. This theory also explains eerie information that people receive when performing various divinations and why we are warned not to trust spirits. This is just a theory, I really don't have much to back it up.
Extra knowledge on jinns. Jinns speak in different languages just like humans. The world of jinns also has animals just like the human world. Every human being is born with 2 angels (kiramen katiben, also known as the honorable wrtiers. These 2 angels write down every good and bad deed a human commits in their lifetime) and with 1 jinn which is known as qareen, this jinn whispers into the ears of a human to take part in sins. Sorry for my bad English I'm from Afghanistan
Haha it's the opposite for me, when I was on the quest, I was quite hyped how it's going to look like as I'm more familiar with Djinn having a somewhat humanoid feature, quite dissapointed when it turns out to be a giant ball of light... Still love the game though.
yes my brother preach they are in his inlighted third eye as we speak find your holly place my friend if u follow ur spine u will find such greatness paradise awaits u praise be allah
they can also move so fast, its like teleportation since they have their own dimension. speeds that can break the sound barrier. the story of solomon peace be upon him had a jinn that could travel that fast. tbh i just think of it as hyperspace XD
Lol in my place we have merged local ghost into jinn so we always assume ghost, ghoul, phantom as bad jinn. And many of this ghost or "bad jinn" Can be hired either as guardian or ruin other people. Like goblin like phantom that can be hired to steal money, or orge like phantom that can make people sick, in expense of sacrificing your health even your soul as their slave
@@user-qq4ig9sk4e 2 types Jinn the one we can see and the one we cannot see. The one we can see sometime often take "Human" form too do not forget that they can be human us like us but you did not realize it a "Jinn" it happens throughout story etc.
Can you do a video about Bakunawa? A serpent-like-dragon from the Philippine mythology who swallowed one of the seven moons created by Bathala (God). The Bakunawa are known to be the cause of Eclipses. It would be very interesting, anyways, I really love your videos!!!
every human has one jinn as his constant companion, the jinn is called the karin jinn who provoke it's human to do sin... every human being has a karin jinn always by his side from birth to death.
yeah..the term 'ghost' can be applied to a Qareen = ghost theory. which is interesting. Because a Qareen is a type of jin which are always attached to us throughout our lives. They are subspecies of the shayateen type. the theory is when the person dies...and is buried after their rites, and cleansing the Qareen also will be unable to take the form of the dead....but if the person dies unclean, a horrible death or the Qareen is the only thing that has witnessed the person's former life...hence it will lose it's purpose once the person dies and is 'free'. It will assume to take form of that deceased person and will often roam around the very place the person died. which in term makes up for the 'ghosts' we see. This is a just a theory...
My mum (Turkish, living in Turkey at the time) was once invited somewhere by a friend. Turns out she belonged to a cult and some man performed a ritual to rid her of the jinn (cin in Turkish) that were haunting her, then turned around and asked her for money. Mum got right on out of there and lost a friend, who would continue to hound her for the debt because she paid it off in mum's place. Fun story!

I love hearing about monsters and myths that are outside the western influence because I am not familiar with them. Could you do the Garuda of Hindu mythology and the Namazu of Japanese mythology? I love your channel. Keep up the good work!
I had a dream of Enoch & Elijah returning. My initial impression of them was that they reminded me somewhat of Aladdin and the Genie, with Elijah being likened to Aladdin and Enoch akin to the Djinn. This would have been like the Disney cartoon Aladdin (1992). The story of Aladdin is one of the most familiar narratives in all of literature, a classic ‘rags to riches’ tale featuring a young hero who has to learn an important lesson; an exotic setting; a good healthy dose of magic; a beautiful heroine; and an evil villain (or two, depending on which version of the story you follow). But as the dream unfolded it felt more like I was looking upon Klaatu and Gort from the movie The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951).
I'm actually from morocco and once in a hike in the wild we (me and my friend) had seen a big lady standing far away in a hill wearing white and having a black head, she standed there without moving for a minute or two and then she disappeared, later that night, we've been attacked by a black clean strong dog for 2 times and he kept on following us until we left that territory, we never heard his steps, he never blinks when he stares at us and while leaving we heard strange baby crying not so far from us while we were the only one camping in that hill... i never believed in jinns before but after witnessing such a thing in person i started to believe in their existence, lot of other persons encountered the same woman in several parts of the country, unpopulated parts and everyone have a different story to tell, a friend of mine told me that once they were camping in a far beach and out of a sudden she appeared on the water and kept slowly coming at them, they left that place instantly and never went back again lol EDIT : i forgot to mention that i've seen them many times in my old house sitting on a couch (2-3 persons wearing white), mostly when i just wake up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, i end up going back to my room and sleep again instead lol they never harmed us in that house by the way (except for nightmares sometimes or when you suddenly start to feel a weird presence near you with a strong cold shiver down your spine lol)
@@haleemkehinde4546 hahah there's good and bad ones, the best thing you could do in your life is to forget about their existence and ignore them. by the way, the jinn are present in other cultures by the name of "spirits", when you see a voodoo sorcerer or someone performing black magic, be sure that they do it with the help of jinn, because here in morocco, sorcerers can make you live in hell with the help of jinns lol
Max Axe no it was a man. a jinn offered to bring the throne before the prophet Sulaiman stood from his throne but a man who has the knowledge of (the book) offered to bring her throne before he can blink its written in the Quran.
Interesting fact. In the original Aladin story there was no three-wish limit. The Djinn was the slave of whoever held and rubbed the lamp. Every time the djinn was summoned, he was forced to obey. Aladin made many more than three wishes. In addition, there was another Djinn who was summoned by rubbing a ring. It was the Djinn of the ring who rescued Aladin from the cave of wonders.
If you're interested in more information : Jin nowadays pictured as some being that try to stray human in a wrong path. So demon is the king of satan (like the lucifer), but satan is separated into human and jin. So satan is a "personality", if you will. And ghost doesn't exist, because human soul also in the grave with the body, and being questioned by angels (about their sins and their believe or faith). While there's something called jin qorin which is a jin that accompany us from the day we born and people said that this jin will take our form, so if you see ghost of a dead person, it was jin qorin.

The djinn aw one of my favorite creatures of myth. There is just something about them that strikes fascination in me, and I'm sure many others can agree with me.
You can also think of jinns as energy, they can move through walls as does energy, it can move very fast, we dont see it, and they can take the form of matter as per the Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2

here's a story: this is in Morocco, when we were in middle school there was this kid who was playing football with a couple of kids in a stadium near a very big land of various planted fields, the ball when out of the stadium so get went to get it. from what I was told, he saw his aunt down there and she told him why did you step on my kids and she slapped him, his lower jaw shifted to the side and wouldn't go back, I remember the kid kept getting seizures after that randomly throughout middle school. the thing is his aunt was already dead when he saw her.
i life in Indonesia and yes Jin is very common here, they just like us, but in different dimension. we believe they live everywhere, forest, mountain, even a big city.
yeah but jinn are not seen as seperate entites from the others mentioned by us, to arabs and muslims as a whole all demons, yokai, elves, fae and honestly any magical creature are simply jinn its just that other cultures gave them different names
@@EmirSaqr the reason why i mentioned fae and elves is that their discription is nearly exact to jinn. They are described as shapeshifting tricksters who may possess or mentally harm people.
Try doing the history about "The Trolls" both monstrous type in Scandinavian folklore, myth & legend and friendly type in pop culture children media from film and TV series. (Internet trolls not include)
Correction : the word Junn means "unseeing brings" . in Islamic texts demons are also called jinns. And there are many types of jinns, and one of them is humanlike who have family, religion, education, emotions etc.
The name of Jinn in Arabic isn't writting correctly, the software you have used to write it wouldn't perhaps supported Arabic scripture. Also, could you over Zahhak from ancient Persian mythology?
Man is also a spiritual being in nature. While the bashar aspect of us is the flesh and bones which constitutes the material aspect of a human being, there's the ruh (soul), a spiritual substance imbued into our bashari aspect which exist originally as our primordial existence that made the covenant with Allah as mentioned in the Quran 7:172 where Allah asked the souls "Am I not your Lord", to which the souls collectively replied "Yes, we testify". As Adam was taught the names and reality of things of things which the angels knew not, and that the angels were commanded to bow down before Adam which signified how Allah elevated man, we have the potential to ascend higher in stature than the angels should man pursue the spiritual way in submitting to Allah.
And the very important thing my friend is the infinity spirit's how are part of God the spirit is the key of creation of the Universe and creatures 👻 in Quran God said (the spirit's come from me) Last technology.
"Stronger than humans" is a mere Hollywood fantasy.... Otherwise, there will be no suspense in the horror movies. Most definitely, their invisibility and fear over humans is their major power.

According to the Qur’aan, demons are not a third type of spiritual beings. A demon is an evil jinn or an evil human being since both have free will. A Satan(Arabic Shaitaan) is an evil Jinn/human. There is no concept of falling angles in the Quran (it’s debatable).
Satan really.
There is! Two jinns which names I forgot but they are in the quran. These two angles were sent to earth (and became judges I believe) but they ended sleeping with a woman and they had a bad ending
@@salmamaria2081 That's an Israeli story it was confirmed to be false by our shaiks also we Muslims believe that angels would never do something wrong beside the funny thing about the story is that the woman become a planet ?! That doesn't make sense which just make it clear that it's false.
@@salmamaria2081 harot and marot in babylon
Actually it's argued that Iblis was an Angel that disobeyed God. There are many within the Islamic scholar community who debate for and against this. Look it up online, you can see that it's not known for sure if in fact Angels are completely without free-will or if there's various tiers of angels at different levels of heaven. It is suspected that Iblis presided as the leader over the lowest level of heaven and over Earth. He had immense power over the other Angels that followed his commands, which would suggest that he was an Angel himself. Also, the Surah in which Allah commands Angels to bow to Adam, only directs this command to the Angels. There's no mention that this command was also intended for Jinn. So this would suggest that Iblis was in fact an Angel -- a very powerful and arrogant one.
As an Egyptian who grew up with these stories, this video is largely accurate but there are a few things that weren’t mentioned about jinn, like the fact that jinn and demons are actually part of the same race. Demons are jinn as well, but they are jinn who, when Adam was created, refused to bow to Adam as God commanded them to do because they believed themselves superior to humans and then proceeded to rebel against God. This led God to banish them from heaven and condemn all of them to hell when judgment day comes. Another thing is that jinn can go to heaven or hell just like humans do, and that jinn who go to hell get tortured just like humans do.

Wow that's actually pretty interesting 😂😂 Middle eastern folklore and mythology is amazing

Eric Ford it most certainly is.
Another side note is angels are also neutrals too, unlike the popular perception of other beliefs that they r solely ordered for doing good. They can get commands from God for torturing the evils at hell. They will fight for protecting the holy lands against the Antichrist aka Deccal.

another fact i've heard : Jinns/Demons never appear with shadow . cause they're not physical being like us . . they are paranormal . so, differing a Jinn from a normal person is just a glance . but it makes me think, when human's encounter these paranormal creatures . . . i mean , how exactly they face cause when the thing has no shadow it don't reflect light either . and which has nothing with shadow that don't reflects light and that just can't be seen . . . . . and another thing i've heard that these creatures are of electro magnetic field . you can find many contents in you tube also thousands of ghost hunting videos claiming to have encountered paranormal creature by a particular device catching magnetic forces through the environment . So, i think we need more knowledge to be fed and needs more vast and deeper analysis . It's truly sad that usual humans even todays modern world face this sort of horror and no one tends to it thanks to unscientific , when this is the fact then aso the meaning of scientific is to be described . rather than babbling superstitious a vast sorting of analysis goes for this world, which is the_ Aid .

The concept of immensely powerful beings that live in between worlds is great and lends itself super well to some modern day urban fantasy. Like the standard shadow world trope is literally built right into them and you get the bonus that you aren't just making it up, you're actually building on an established tradition so it becomes a lot more believable. You could make a super cool urban fantasy with them that also incorporated other elements of Islamic beliefs. The fact that they're also established as thinking and feeling beings is really interesting especially the fact that they actually believe in a religion themselves. You never get that in urban fantasy and it'd bee really cool to hear what thoughts on religion a super natural being would have. Usually it's just never really explored in urban fantasy because some religion is just right without question or everyone is just weirdly agnostic. Would be cool to see a super natural being actually observe a religion and it'd also be way more interesting to have an agnostic or atheist one because they'd have totally different reasons for thinking that way.
Basically they were already very human in many ways so they'd make for great characters and it'd be completely inline with the established mythology unlike when the Archangel Gabriel is strangely human.

Solomon had occult knowledge taught to him by the angels that allowed him to subdue the jinn and make him do his bidding - he famously put the more violent ones into bottles and threw them into the sea so they couldn't stab him in the back.

talking from the heart of Arabia, let me add more to the myth
Jins do have clans and tribes (mirroring the community that gave birth to the myth)
they are classified according to their powers, the strongest race hold the name (Maread)
Arabs thought of the genius as having a Jin friend who helps him, until now the word for genius in Arabic (Abqari) is derived from the term (Apqar) a Valley name where a tribe of jin is thought to help those in their surroundings.
the most famous Arab poetry was considered wrote with the help of jin
God made them servant to king Solomon (hence his ultimate power)
they were involved in the story of 'queen of Sheba' , they brought her thorn when she came to visit Solomon, as Solomon tried to impress her with his abilities.
they are far more numerous than humans
there can be a friendship between a human and jin, in that case he is called (Qarien)
jin are involved in magic ( by worshiping some of their leaders they will grant you some powers or do you some wishes)
In Islamic perspective the devil is a jinn who went astray

@Joe Al what?
@@64Ahmed it amazes me as the Holy Book is actually speaking to both human and jinn
@Joe Al huh?
@S C True. These are fun tales, but people take them seriously and we get priests beating people with mental illnesses to "cure" then of jinns. Fantasies should remain fantasies.
Jinns, like human also have major races of their species, which are ifrit, marid, jan, and syaitan (satan in english). Also having several minor races such as ghoul and others (i did read a lot of information about this about 8 years ago so i forgot most of this stuff)
In that reading, before humans starting to reside on earth, the world was occupied by djinns including the earth up until beyond the space and they were able to terraform terrains. Meaning, they could terraform planets that is in habitable region into a planet comfortable enough to live. However, as they lived across the universe, some wanted to be superior above others and waged war. Note that major djinn personality is usually destructive, fueled with rage, egoistic, and for some, arrogant. They always put interest, lust and emotion above mind.
It was a very terrible war with major casualties, killing most of the species. Hence, the god sent the angels to wipe out all the terrible among the species including all their technologies and leave only the innocents with nothing left for them except food and a place to live. Also, the god commanded the angels to pick one of them to heaven (i assumed that the intention was to pick up one of them to teach about religion then send the chosen one back to the surviving community to share what he has learned since the god intended the djinns to worship Him, plus i am uncertain which race does the chosen one belonged to)
Thus the djinn that was picked up lived among the angels and proved himself to be very, very dedicated in gaining the god's favor. the djinn rised up ranks gradually and for a very, very long time, he finally became someone ranked similar to the archangels due to vast knowledge and merit. note that angels only have mind and emotion, they don't have interest and lust.
one day, the god decided to create a new creature to be sent to earth, thus angels asked the god, "are You creating another creature that might be causing a lot of damage and massacre while you already having us that are always praising You?" and the God replied "I know what you don't know."
After the god created the creature, He commanded all that present in heaven to bow down to pay respect to the creature. all of the angels did bow down, paying respect except one, the djinn.
the god asked the djinn why he didn't bow down, hence the djinn answered he does not have any reason to bow down, and questioned why would he bow down to some new creature that is just made of clay, plus he claimed that the god created the djinn from smokeless fire, which is much better and superior than clay (this part explains that the chosen djinn is just being disrespectful and believed himself to be at higher lever or superior or better than the new creature; lets say that this djinn sees the new creature as a very low life peasant and himself a noble)
then after hearing those words, the god then asked the djinn to get out of the heaven and told him that he is no longer entitled to stay inside it any more. the god said that the djinn will be end up in hell (even though the written conversation was short, i assumed that the god meant that the djinn will enter hell after he died for being disrespectful, while implied that he has time to reflect on himself while alive and get a chance to repent so he can change his fate.)
but the djinn let his own ego get over him, promised the god to cause the new creature to astray and also enter the hell with him. then the god said if there is anyone that follow the djinn, then He will fill both of them in hell altogether. the djinn then requested that for him to do so, he wanted to be let alive until the day of judgement, then the god accepted his request before sending him off back to where he was from.
And this particular djinn is the Satan himself

This is not a joke. There are like thousands and thousands of real-life experiences people have had including my family members, especially my mother. One of the many incidents that have occurred happened 2 months ago. My mother just woke up at 6 or 5 AM in the morning. She just laid down again after drinking water when she saw a girl beside her bed who she thought was my elder sister. So she called her towards her by her hand and when that girl came closer to her face she realized that it was someone else. It was a young girl with similar features of my sister and she kept on smiling at her. After just a few seconds of that encounter, that thing vanished completely and my mother said she turned into smoke. This is just one of the many incidents I know of. There's one I experienced myself as well and whenever you recite verses from the Quran they thankfully vanish.
I'm from Iran and when i was a kid i used to be really scared of the jinns. Me and my friends would tell horror stories to eachother about people being possesed by these mysterious beings.
Some said they like bathrooms, some said they are short creatures with hooves, some said they are scared of metal so you should put a piece of it under your pillow.I vaguely remember there was a talk about a book that you could summon one to help you but for a cost of its choice. We were children back then and not many people Really belive in these folktales but even now my heart beats faster by telling these. It shows how deep the effects of culture are in our minds.
In Turkey for example some don't even prounounce jinn and say in rough translation "the being with three letters"( in turkish its written as Cin)
There are some really quality horror movies in both Iranian and turkish languages for horror movie enthusiats. To name a few Under the shadows(persian), dabbe:the curse of the jinn (turkish) .they are both available on Netflix.

The whole concept of not using the direct name of a creature is also popular in Slavic cultures. For example a Slavic name for a bear mean "those who eat honey", some highlanders are simply calling a bear "him" and Riese monsters are referred to as "they". These come from an old Slavic belief that by pronouncing a name of something or someone you summon that, so very often Slavs change the commonly used names to different ones to not summon the bearer of that name.

The Japanese have a large number of mythological creatures ;)
true
Jinn have different names in different cultures. In english-speaking cultures, they are known as faeries. Don't believe the Hollywood versions, or the tinkerbell & fern gully versions of faeries in Disney films. Faeries are not to be messed with! Anybody who practices magick knows that summoning them is asking for trouble. The same goes for Jinn. They are tricksters and are always causing mayhem to those who try to get them to do their bidding. There are always consequences in doing so. Only the most experienced witch or sorcerer should be working with dark magick, if at all.
In India they are called Jinn
This remind me of a jinn in Neil Gaiman’s novel American gods
So Disney's Aladdin cleverness in tricking Jafar into a genie may have partly based on the fisherman's cleverness. Cool ^^

The Jinn have been part of the Jewish folklore too... It is said that King Solomon controlled an army of Jinn.
Old Jewish texts also mention about the time before humans when Jinns ruled the planet similar to how humans do today. But when corruption and murder increased exponentially in the land, God sent down an army of angels along with Iblees (Satan/Lucifer) who was a jinn raised to the spirituality level of the angels trough his piety and worship.
How Iblees became Satan is a different story. Jinns like Humans have free will and can choose to disobey the commands of God. For that he was punished and cursed till Judgement Day. To extract his revenge, he vowed to distract the human race from God starting with the extraction of Adam & Eve from Paradise by making them eat the fruit of the Forbidden Tree,

Extra knowledge on jinns.
Jinns speak in different languages just like humans.
The world of jinns also has animals just like the human world.
Every human being is born with 2 angels (kiramen katiben, also known as the honorable wrtiers. These 2 angels write down every good and bad deed a human commits in their lifetime) and with 1 jinn which is known as qareen, this jinn whispers into the ears of a human to take part in sins.

but mostly creative thought and ideas came out after going to the bathroom, so our creative ideas are from djinn then? lol
I fell in the bathroom and was taken to foster care and lost my memory while there.

Haha it's the opposite for me, when I was on the quest, I was quite hyped how it's going to look like as I'm more familiar with Djinn having a somewhat humanoid feature, quite dissapointed when it turns out to be a giant ball of light... Still love the game though.
u didnt talk about prophet sulaiman and still he was a king on jinn

They make weapons, help farmers, and be advisors? Jinn sure can multitask like a champ.
they can also move so fast, its like teleportation since they have their own dimension. speeds that can break the sound barrier. the story of solomon peace be upon him had a jinn that could travel that fast.
tbh i just think of it as hyperspace XD
Lol in my place we have merged local ghost into jinn so we always assume ghost, ghoul, phantom as bad jinn. And many of this ghost or "bad jinn" Can be hired either as guardian or ruin other people. Like goblin like phantom that can be hired to steal money, or orge like phantom that can make people sick, in expense of sacrificing your health even your soul as their slave
LOL They certainly can't do that. They don't make weapons or help farmers.
They help Solomon build tample
Jinn: what can I serve you?
Me: I wish for more wishes
Jinn: dude I'm a guardian not a Genie

Can you do a video about Bakunawa? A serpent-like-dragon from the Philippine mythology who swallowed one of the seven moons created by Bathala (God). The Bakunawa are known to be the cause of Eclipses. It would be very interesting, anyways, I really love your videos!!!
Damn! That's a big dragon.
Tell that stupid dragon to give us the moon back.

Yes, Jinn actually around the world with different name. Hindus people call them Asuras
Asuras are far more superior beings. Jinns are far Inferior
@@pij6277 to be fair, they are in between. Jann and Ifrit are the closest to Asura. especially Ifrits since they're high rank

every human has one jinn as his constant companion, the jinn is called the karin jinn who provoke it's human to do sin... every human being has a karin jinn always by his side from birth to death.
I think writing it Qareen is better than writing it as Karin.
@@beckeras8848 oh... ok
yeah..the term 'ghost' can be applied to a Qareen = ghost theory. which is interesting. Because a Qareen is a type of jin which are always attached to us throughout our lives. They are subspecies of the shayateen type. the theory is when the person dies...and is buried after their rites, and cleansing the Qareen also will be unable to take the form of the dead....but if the person dies unclean, a horrible death or the Qareen is the only thing that has witnessed the person's former life...hence it will lose it's purpose once the person dies and is 'free'. It will assume to take form of that deceased person and will often roam around the very place the person died. which in term makes up for the 'ghosts' we see. This is a just a theory...
Sanim Saosan Correction: humans have two angel who write down all deeds done by that person until death.
The Qareen is classified among the Jinn-type creatures, although usually not actually a Jinni.
Crazy in Arabic is "Mejnoon" which is roughly translated as Jinn possessed. And possession is "mulabis" which means to be worn (like clothes).
My mum (Turkish, living in Turkey at the time) was once invited somewhere by a friend. Turns out she belonged to a cult and some man performed a ritual to rid her of the jinn (cin in Turkish) that were haunting her, then turned around and asked her for money. Mum got right on out of there and lost a friend, who would continue to hound her for the debt because she paid it off in mum's place. Fun story!

I had a dream of Enoch & Elijah returning. My initial impression of them was that they reminded me somewhat of Aladdin and the Genie, with Elijah being likened to Aladdin and Enoch akin to the Djinn. This would have been like the Disney cartoon Aladdin (1992). The story of Aladdin is one of the most familiar narratives in all of literature, a classic ‘rags to riches’ tale featuring a young hero who has to learn an important lesson; an exotic setting; a good healthy dose of magic; a beautiful heroine; and an evil villain (or two, depending on which version of the story you follow). But as the dream unfolded it felt more like I was looking upon Klaatu and Gort from the movie The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951).
I'm actually from morocco and once in a hike in the wild we (me and my friend) had seen a big lady standing far away in a hill wearing white and having a black head, she standed there without moving for a minute or two and then she disappeared, later that night, we've been attacked by a black clean strong dog for 2 times and he kept on following us until we left that territory, we never heard his steps, he never blinks when he stares at us and while leaving we heard strange baby crying not so far from us while we were the only one camping in that hill...
i never believed in jinns before but after witnessing such a thing in person i started to believe in their existence, lot of other persons encountered the same woman in several parts of the country, unpopulated parts and everyone have a different story to tell, a friend of mine told me that once they were camping in a far beach and out of a sudden she appeared on the water and kept slowly coming at them, they left that place instantly and never went back again lol
EDIT : i forgot to mention that i've seen them many times in my old house sitting on a couch (2-3 persons wearing white), mostly when i just wake up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, i end up going back to my room and sleep again instead lol they never harmed us in that house by the way (except for nightmares sometimes or when you suddenly start to feel a weird presence near you with a strong cold shiver down your spine lol)
Wow
Yh jinns can play tricks like that on humans
@@haleemkehinde4546 hahah there's good and bad ones, the best thing you could do in your life is to forget about their existence and ignore them.
by the way, the jinn are present in other cultures by the name of "spirits", when you see a voodoo sorcerer or someone performing black magic, be sure that they do it with the help of jinn, because here in morocco, sorcerers can make you live in hell with the help of jinns lol
Ayatul kursi
The baby cries actually might've been foxes mating.
Jinns do indeed exixt, some violent others normal. But bad ones try to cause people some harm.
0:46 "... More powerful than humans,"
*Is the man who moved Queen of Sheba's throne **_faster than Prophet Solomon even blink_** a joke to you?*
That was a jinn commanded by King Solomon
Max Axe no it was a man. a jinn offered to bring the throne before the prophet Sulaiman stood from his throne but a man who has the knowledge of (the book) offered to bring her throne before he can blink its written in the Quran.

Whew...
For a second there, I thought I might have drank my Genie with tonic and a twist last night.
Interesting fact. In the original Aladin story there was no three-wish limit. The Djinn was the slave of whoever held and rubbed the lamp. Every time the djinn was summoned, he was forced to obey. Aladin made many more than three wishes. In addition, there was another Djinn who was summoned by rubbing a ring. It was the Djinn of the ring who rescued Aladin from the cave of wonders.
If you're interested in more information :
Jin nowadays pictured as some being that try to stray human in a wrong path. So demon is the king of satan (like the lucifer), but satan is separated into human and jin. So satan is a "personality", if you will. And ghost doesn't exist, because human soul also in the grave with the body, and being questioned by angels (about their sins and their believe or faith). While there's something called jin qorin which is a jin that accompany us from the day we born and people said that this jin will take our form, so if you see ghost of a dead person, it was jin qorin.

You can also think of jinns as energy, they can move through walls as does energy, it can move very fast, we dont see it, and they can take the form of matter as per the Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2

Speaking of vaguely physical beings, will y'all be doing anything on the Japanese Yokai? Keep up the good work
here's a story:
this is in Morocco, when we were in middle school there was this kid who was playing football with a couple of kids in a stadium near a very big land of various planted fields, the ball when out of the stadium so get went to get it.
from what I was told, he saw his aunt down there and she told him why did you step on my kids and she slapped him, his lower jaw shifted to the side and wouldn't go back, I remember the kid kept getting seizures after that randomly throughout middle school.
the thing is his aunt was already dead when he saw her.
Holy heavens that is terrifying 😱
The temper of a Jinn is a destructive force
One thing about jinns is,
Never mess with a jinn! I mean "never ever!"
i life in Indonesia and yes Jin is very common here, they just like us, but in different dimension. we believe they live everywhere, forest, mountain, even a big city.
Jinn in arabic culture,
Ghosts/Demon in western culture,
yokai in eastern culture
Hmmmm..i see a pattern here
They were also the elves in Scandinavian culture, and the Fae/Faeries in celtic culture
yeah but jinn are not seen as seperate entites from the others mentioned by us, to arabs and muslims as a whole all demons, yokai, elves, fae and honestly any magical creature are simply jinn its just that other cultures gave them different names
@@EmirSaqr the reason why i mentioned fae and elves is that their discription is nearly exact to jinn. They are described as shapeshifting tricksters who may possess or mentally harm people.

And there are many types of jinns, and one of them is humanlike who have family, religion, education, emotions etc.

The name of Jinn in Arabic isn't writting correctly, the software you have used to write it wouldn't perhaps supported Arabic scripture.
Also, could you over Zahhak from ancient Persian mythology?
My point is that Jinn you're talking about a video game character they called her Shantae she is a half genie from Shantae and the Pirate's Curse
I love the Genie from the Disney Aladdin. He is one of my favorite Disney characters.
There are only two spiritual beings in the Qur'an, Jinn and Angels.
That's right, demon is in human or jinn actions.
How about bouraq
Jinn are as spiritual as humans, not as Angel's.
Man is also a spiritual being in nature. While the bashar aspect of us is the flesh and bones which constitutes the material aspect of a human being, there's the ruh (soul), a spiritual substance imbued into our bashari aspect which exist originally as our primordial existence that made the covenant with Allah as mentioned in the Quran 7:172 where Allah asked the souls "Am I not your Lord", to which the souls collectively replied "Yes, we testify".
As Adam was taught the names and reality of things of things which the angels knew not, and that the angels were commanded to bow down before Adam which signified how Allah elevated man, we have the potential to ascend higher in stature than the angels should man pursue the spiritual way in submitting to Allah.
And the very important thing my friend is the infinity spirit's how are part of God the spirit is the key of creation of the Universe and creatures 👻 in Quran God said (the spirit's come from me) Last technology.
"Stronger than humans" is a mere Hollywood fantasy.... Otherwise, there will be no suspense in the horror movies. Most definitely, their invisibility and fear over humans is their major power.
They are stronger than average men in strength but surely are not infinitely powerful or all knowing like some assume
