The popular definition of jin is that it is a genie, like the story in Arabian Nights.
The true definition of jin from the Islamic perspective is that jin is one group of creature with "mind" ("aqal" in Arabic) which God has created long time ago before God created earth and other planets. Other group of creatures with "mind" created by God are angels and human beings.
Jins like human beings have many races and profess different religions. Some are Muslims, Christians, Pagans etc. Whereas we human beings are made from flesh and blood (originally made from clay), jins are created from different elements and live in other dimension. If Jins go to our dimension, we may see them.
Lucifer, Satan or Devil is actually from the same species of Jins. [From the Muslims perspective there are differences between Satan ("Syaitan" in Arabic) and the Devil ("Iblis" in Arabic)]
Whereas Adam is considered the father of human beings, the Devil ("Iblis") is considered the father of Jins races.
Previously the Devil lived in heaven. He was created before Adam. The Devil was ordered by God to get out from heaven and go to earth as the Devil has disobey God's instruction.
The Devil was so jealous of Adam, he persuaded [through tricky means] Adam and Eve to eat the forbidden fruits [the Christians called the fruits "Apple"; the Muslims called the fruits "Khuldi"]. In the first place, Adam did not want to eat the apple. He was tricked by the Devil to eat the apple. That is why from the Muslims perspective there is no "original sin" that will be inherited by every born child in this world. Even if Adam has committed a "sin" by eating the apple, he and his wife Eve have repented and God has accepted their repentance.
It is a different story with the Devil; he never repent even until today. But with God's mercy, God has declared to the jins that whoever repent and become Muslims, God will forgive them and will allow them to enter paradise after the end of the world. Become Muslims means to submit ourselves to God's will.

It is believed that this jin is made from fire that is very hot,or somtimes they say original fire. This is based on Muslims Holy Quran. Jin is an extremely bad creature. It is believed that the kindest jin is attitude or habit is supposed to be like the attitude and habit of the most ill-manner human in the world...They feed on bones, not like the bone will finish if they ate it, but somehow they use the bone to feed themselves.

Jin are creatures created by god,, they can occupy the human body and control it in an evil way (( u saw Constantine "Keanu Reeves and Rachel weize)) and get out of it by religious methods in mostly all religion Christianity, Islam..
I'm not just blah blah blah I saw this happened with my brother in front of my eyes I heard the Jin takes (using my brother's voice)

Jin is short for Djin. They're supposed to be mischievous spirits that often embrace elements of the world around us. At least, that's my understanding.

Those things do NOT exist. They are mythological but they refer to beings called Djin or Genie. You know when you rub the magic lamp and the Genie comes out and asks you what your 3 wishes are. Think Aladdin.

it really is... astounding to understand a music that suits a demanding difficulty. it ought to correctly be fairly comforting. Like me with The Rain music... i'm dealing with not ordinary circumstances on the instant and each and every time I pay interest to it, i think a lot extra acceptable, and that i'll come across with the lyrics. i do not wallow in misery when I pay interest to it; I develop into happier. So, i wager i'm merely attempting to assert, it really is astounding for some human beings to have a music that they could come across with, and it makes them sense extra acceptable. yet I actual does not bypass round asking questions attempting to come across a music like that.

In Persian mythology, the Djinn were evil, ugly spirits of wild desolate places. They were shape-changers who could also be invisible.
