Quran/Tafsir Surah al-Jinn; Benefit #1

My benefit from today was learning that there are some Jinns that believe in Allah and the Quran. The Jinns that believe in Allah ta'ala and find interest in the Quran like to hear the recitation of it. Believing Jinns believe that Allah has no wife or offspring like the believing mankind. Another thing I learned is that the word Jadd means Allah ta'ala's blessings, His power, and His favor upon His Creation. I also learned that the Jinns were once scared of mankind just as mankind was scared of them, but when mankind started seeking refuge from the Jinns instead of seeking refuge with Allah, the Jinns took advantage of this and began to harass mankind.
