Question:

What is your opinion on supernatural beings or Jinn?

 

 

Answer:

Jinns are one of the creations of God. When God had decided to create, first of all he created energetic beings and after little variation he created pure gaseous beings. Then terrestrial beings were being created by God having weight. So our Earth has got two kind of beings; natural and supernatural, moreover it is said about Hazrat sheikh Abdul-Qadir Jillani that he was called “Ghos-ul -Saqlain”( the master of both Jinn and terrestrial beings.) There are billions of creatures on this Earth and we are completely unaware which kind of classification exists for it? Obviously it would be impossible to think that God would have no interest after creating it. If our planet has one billion creatures then there would be more above the Heavens. God would have been creating all this with a principle in his mind to evolve the living beings on this planet. First it was in the form of (Taraab) pure clay which God turned into wet clay (Teen-e- Lazab) and then from wet clay it was turned into (Salsal-e-kal-Fikhar) the potter’s clay and then life was being created in the form of single cell e.g.(Paramecia, Amoeba, Proteus, and Caratum). Then it acquired the heights of sophistication from single cell to dinosaurs. After the extinction of Dinosaurs, huge Rhinos and Dinosaurs were made sizeable according to the circumstances suitable for human beings. The human being of those days was very different from today. The height of human being at that time was not as huge /rather he was much smaller in size and his head was not as sophisticated /uniform as he has now; and that first man has been termed as “parental homosapien”. Gradually the huge dinosaurs were made extinct through earthquakes. That human survived despite living among huge animals by hiding in the caves. It then entered into the phase of “homo-erectus” and “homo-habilous”. God said in Qura’n that we started the creation from a single cell.

“Hath there come upon man (ever) any period of time in which he was a thing unremembered.” (Al- Dahr-1)

Rather it only existed in the form of a single cell, which still exists in our stomach in the form of Amoeba, which surprisingly multiplies and cause dysentery. There was a gradual development/evolution from higher energy order to lower level. Firstly, God created highly sophisticated beings from gaseous flames which were billion in number. God clearly says in Qura’n that jinn were created out of fire of scorching wind. To understand their formation, there is a very simple example. When we burn the oxygen gas a blue flame is produced .They (Jinn) were created in a similar manner. Same process was involved to create Jinn from the high degree volatile energy gases. Therefore jinn are able to acquire any shape. And there life span consists of 1500 to 3000 years. They have been taken the guidance of the same Prophets like us.

When God created Adam, angels have to confirm his Prophet hood automatically. Many people ask who the followers of Adam was when he was the Prophet. If you think over it, you will come to know as well as God says in Qura’n;

“And when we said unto the angels: prostrate yourselves before Adam, they fell prostrate, all save Iblis. (Al-Baqra.34)

They fell prostrate due to sanctity of Adam’s learning power and he has been tested for his learning power before hand, moreover there was a contest between angels and Adam now.

“And He taught Adam all the names, and then showed them to the angels, saying: Inform me of the names of these, if ye are truthful.” (Al-Baqra.31)

All the angels fell prostrate before Adam save Iblis (the founder of racial prejudice in this world) who said: I have been created out of fire whereas Adam is from clay, how could he be superior to me? Ladies and Gentlemen: “Haazraat” is a process which is used to invoke and subjugate Jinn. Many people are involved in this madness. But the question is what the true nature of invocation is? The pattern of negative and positive reasoning exists side by side, God says:

“And inspired it (with conscience of) what is wrong for it and what is right for it”. (Al-Shams.8)

Men remain no longer on the path of mysticism or get blessed with God’s love when they go to subjugate evil spirits. All the processes of invoking or subjugation are based on self concentration. They concentrate in favor of the self against God, whereas Sufi or mystic concentrate against the self in favor of God. These are the two basic principles and God has therefore forbidden His followers to get involved in such practices. Even though there were some mystics who did such practices, but just for the sake of learning.
