Anam 130
130- O PEOPLE OF THE JINN AND OF MANKIND, DID YOU NOT RECEIVE A MESSENGER FROM AMONGST YOU, NARRATING MY AYAHS TO YOU, AND WARNING YOU ABOUT THE MEETING OF THIS DAY? THEY SAID: “WE TESTIFY AGAINST OURSELVES”. THE LOWER LIFE ALLURED THEM AND THEY TESTIFIED AGAINST THEMSELVES THAT THEY WERE DISBELIEVERS.
Allah the Highest sent to Earth prophets and messengers from mankind, they were all men. We are not aware of any prophets or messengers from the Jinn. Allah the Highest said: “AND THE MESSENGERS WE SENT BEFORE YOU USED TO EAT FOOD AND WALK AROUND THE MARKETS”. (S: 29 A: 27) meaning that they were human beings.
And said: “THOSE WE SENT BEFORE YOU WERE MEN WE SENT REVELATIONS TO, FROM THE INHABITANTS OF TOWNS AND VILLAGES”. (S: 12 A: 109)
However, Allah’s messenger, prayer and peace upon him, was sent to both the Jinn and mankind. Allah the Highest said: “AND WE SENT YOU A GROUP OF THE JINN TO LISTEN TO THE QURAN, WHEN IT WAS RECITED THEY SAID: “LISTEN CAREFULLY”, WHEN ITS RECITATION FINISHED, THEY RUSHED TO THEIR PEOPLE WARNING THEM * THEY SAID: “OUR PEOPLE, WE HEARD A BOOK SENT DOWN AFTER MOSES, CONFIRMING WHAT WAS SENT DOWN BEFOREHAND, AND GUIDING TO THE TRUTH AND TO A STRAIGHT PATH * OUR PEOPLE, ANSWER THE CALLER ALLAH SENT AND BELIEVE IN HIM, TO FORGIVE YOUR SINS AND PROTECT YOU FROM PAINFUL PUNISHMENT * AS FOR HE WHO DOES NOT ANSWER THE CALLER TO ALLAH, HE WILL NOT BE HARD (FOR ALLAH TO PUNISH) , AND WILL HAVE NO SUPPORTERS TO HELP HIM AGAINST ALLAH, THOSE HAVE GONE FAR ASTRAY”. (S: 46 A: 29-32)
Sorah Al-Jinn also clearly tells us that the Jinn listened to the Quran and went to their people to tell them about it. They also listened to Sorah Al-Rahman and received it very well.
The prophets and messengers, prayer and peace upon them all, had a mission to give people the message they received from Allah the Highest, to guide them and warn them about the resurrection and the Day of Judgment.
This lower life tends to allure people, and make them forget about the eternal life in the Hereafter. It makes us forget about dying and having to face judgment. However, we do not know when will death come to any of us, and it can be sudden. When it comes, we can not put it off or postpone it in order that we may do good deeds, or to put things right.
“WE TESTIFY AGAINST OURSELVES”
We will be shown our book of deeds, and will have to read it and confess to every thing stated in that Book. Allah the Highest said: “AND EVERY HUMAN BEING WILL HAVE HIS DEEDS TIED TO HIS NECK, AND WE WILL BRING FORTH FOR HIM A BOOK HE WILL FIND OPENED * READ YOUR OWN BOOK, YOU ARE SUFFICIENT TO BE THE JUDGE OF YOURSELF”. (S: 17 A: 13, 14)
Indeed, every part of our body will testify about the things we did; good and bad. Allah the Highest said: “ON THE DAY WHEN THEIR TONGUES, HANDS AND FEET WILL TESTIFY CONCERNING WHAT THEY DID”. (S: 24 A: 24)
