Consider that this was Allah's (ﷻ) response to Pharaoh (Firown) when he "repented" after all his evil and the punishment overtook him: "Now? And you had disobeyed [Him] before and were of the corrupters" - Qur'an 10:90-91. In the end, Pharaoh's repentence was not accepted. I imagine the same would be the case for Iblis if he 'repented.'
Repenting when it is ...

Let's start our investigation one verse earlier in 27:38 Solomon addresses an assembly or some chiefs or commandants as the word al-mal' الملأ was also translated. And we have an idea of the constitution of this assembly: In Verse 27:17 we learn that this assembly was of human, jinn and/or birds.
Verse 27:39 shows that the first to answer was a jinn.

I just wanted to clarify one thing. There is no such thing called Human/Jinn offspring. Humans are made from Clay. Jinn are made from fire. Jinn are capable of inciting ideas and thoughts that provoke us, human race, to commit sins.
To understand the first verse with regards to sharing, we need to go through the whole verse:
17:64 And incite [to ...

Times when praying is foribidden
Times when praying (an optional prayer) is forbidden are defined by this two ahadith (based on this Arabic fatwa):
Uqba b. 'Amir said:
There were three times at which Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) forbade us to pray, or bury our dead: When the sun begins to rise till it is fully up, when the sun is at its height at midday till ...

Yes,Quran is For humans and Jinns Only,and that because Allah leave us the freedom of choice, while the Angels have no this freedom ..
Allah said in Quraan :
"سنفرغ لكم ايها الثقلان "(Surat Ar-Raĥmān,verse 31)
"We will attend to you, O prominent beings"
and prominent mean humans and Jinns.

There are a couple of scholars who rejected the Idea of Jinn controlling or taking possession of humans further than the Quran and sahih sunnah allows. You can find some of them listed in this answer here.
Ibn Hazm denied that a jinn could speak through a possessed person and anything which goes beyond sahih sunnah and quran as one can read here (in Arabic). ...

The rule is not only for teenagers but to everyone, and applies to children in particular.
Here's a good link with a detailed explanation: http://islamqa.info/en/125922
From it we see that we should observe the following:

Tie up your water-skins - in our times, we have jars or containers.
Turn off your lamps ...

There are many Quranic verses and Ahadith that talk about "jinns", but none of them speaks about their languages, but from some Quranic verses we can deduct that they can speak and understand the human language
قل أوحي إلي أنه استمع نفر من الجن فقالوا إنا سمعنا قرآنا عجبا
Verse 1 from Surat "Al-JINN "
Say (O Muhammad SAWW!): It has been revealed to me ...

No,we already know that angels are made up of light and jinns are made up of fire.
The word 'everything' is according to the context of that verse. In that verse Arabic word for 'everything' used is 'kulla'.
For example:
Suppose you little brother is eating chips and you asked that you wanted to eat some.
Then he said I ate everything and nothing is left.

This a tafsir of the ayah:
This does not mean that the stars themselves are pelted at the Satans, nor that the meteorites shoot out only to drive away the Satans, but it means that the countless meteorites which originate from the stars and wander in space at tremendous speeds and which also fall to the earth in a continuous shower prevent the Satans of ...

Praise be to Allah.
First of all, I'd like to congratulate you, sister, for being serious about Allah's Deen, praying 5 times a day and following the Sunnah of the Prophet (SAWS) to ward off evil by reciting Ayatul Kursi, Suraah Falaq wa Naas before going to sleep. It is very good that you're concerned about such a serious issue and didn't hesitate to ask a ...

Sura 7:179 states that
And We have certainly created for Hell many of the jinn and mankind. They have hearts with which they do not understand, they have eyes with which they do not see, and they have ears with which they do not hear. Those are like livestock; rather, they are more astray. It is they who are the heedless.
This tells us that the jinn are ...

If you read the Arabic text of the verse you will find Allah has used the world "دابة" and not "مخلوق" and the difference is that Makhluq is as you wrote for literal meaning of creature, anything created and more precisely being created, but Daabbah denote only a category among all the creatures, that is, those that move, seemingly those that are animate!

I just want to know, what is the use of asking such a question? Even if you found out the answer what will you do with it?
Also the Question You ask, has a problem with it.
You are asking for Ahadith to prove if Jin are Shia or Sunni. But you must remember, in the time of Prophet there was no sect known as Shia and Sunni... So how can there be hadith from ...

If you ask will they come and slap us while we're alone, then I would say I'm not sure about it, if such incidents have ever occured.
But if you ask will they cause us to slap ourselves then the answer is YES.
This second one they accomplish only by whispering in our hearts and commanding us to slap ourselves (how? that depends on Satan's trick).
Also, as ...

Concerning your interesting query that you asked:
Is it haram to talk to Jin?
As the concise answer:
Firstly it is remarked that there are two sorts of Jinn:
1: Mo’men (or Muslim) Jinn
2: Kafir Jinn
Secondly: it is declared that (what can be inferred from Shia 14 infallibles’ narrations) :
It can be investigated as a permissible practice if ...

Iblis prayed, "Lord, grant me respite until the Day of Judgment". (Qur'an 15:36)
Upon this, it was Allah's wish. So,
The Lord said, "Your request is granted. (Qur'an 15:37)
Allah knows the best.

If you want a list of scholars that may end up short as salafi pretend having consensus on the matter ;):
Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
The fact that a jinni may enter the body of a human is proven by the consensus of the imams of Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jama’ah (the larger body of Muslims who are upon the prophetic ...

I can't help but point out that water is literally produced from fire:
Flames consist primarily of carbon dioxide, water vapor, oxygen and nitrogen. (Wikipedia)

Prophet Solomon didn't take their help, they were made subservient to him by Allah. The Quran mentions that the devils were included:

Questions of the form Is X in the Qur'an? can be answered by searching for quran X in a search engine. Everything in the Qur'an has been written about extensively online, so there's invariably many obvious hits if something is actually in the Qur'an.

The Qur'an tells us that there are indeed some Jinn's that are believers. But I wonder if we can even meet Jinn and contact them first to be able to find a Muslim one. This sounds weird and rather unrealistic. The Qur'an in fact tells as the origin of Jinn and that they are with or around us, but there's no clue in it on how one might be able to contact them....

Islam forbids us from taking or using the service of Jinn as it is haram in the Islamic law.
Asking for help from the jinn will make them even more arrogant and worse. Allah Almighty says:
"And there were men from mankind who sought refuge in men from the
jinn, so they [only] increased them in burden." Al-Jinn [72:6]
Therefore, using jinn ...

There is no such thing as a test to figure out whether something is a jinn. There is nothing of the sort in Quran or Hadith or anywhere else.

In the conditions of Halal Zibah and Hunting, there is no requirement that you must test the ...

Yes, some people can do this, but rarely.
It's prohibited, but to be able to do this they have to disbelieve (in God), and do some nasty things.
You can protect yourself from them, by reading and memorizing Quran, and some Duaa, and of course you can seek help from professional peoples.
