وَ اِذْ صَرَفْنَاۤ اِلَیْكَ نَفَرًا مِّنَ الْجِنِّ یَسْتَمِعُوْنَ الْقُرْاٰنَۚ-فَلَمَّا حَضَرُوْهُ قَالُوْۤا اَنْصِتُوْاۚ-فَلَمَّا قُضِیَ وَ لَّوْا اِلٰى قَوْمِهِمْ مُّنْذِرِیْنَ(29) قَالُوْا یٰقَوْمَنَاۤ اِنَّا سَمِعْنَا كِتٰبًا اُنْزِلَ مِنْۢ بَعْدِ مُوْسٰى مُصَدِّقًا لِّمَا بَیْنَ یَدَیْهِ یَهْدِیْۤ اِلَى الْحَقِّ وَ اِلٰى طَرِیْقٍ مُّسْتَقِیْمٍ(30) یٰقَوْمَنَاۤ اَجِیْبُوْا دَاعِیَ اللّٰهِ وَ اٰمِنُوْا بِهٖ یَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ مِّنْ ذُنُوْبِكُمْ وَ یُجِرْكُمْ مِّنْ عَذَابٍ اَلِیْمٍ(31) وَ مَنْ لَّا یُجِبْ دَاعِیَ اللّٰهِ فَلَیْسَ بِمُعْجِزٍ فِی الْاَرْضِ وَ لَیْسَ لَهٗ مِنْ دُوْنِهٖۤ اَوْلِیَآءُؕ-اُولٰٓىٕكَ فِیْ ضَلٰلٍ مُّبِیْنٍ(32)

Kanz-ul-Irfan

And ˹remember, dear Beloved Prophet,˺ when We turned[1] a group among the jinn[2] towards you who listened to the Quran attentively. Then when they arrived in the presence of the Prophet, they said (among themselves), “Be silent (and listen)!” So when it ended, they returned to their nation as warners. They said, “O our nation! Indeed we have heard a Book which has been revealed after Mūsā[1] confirming the earlier Revelations, guiding to the truth and towards the straight path. O our nation! Respond to the caller of Allah and believe in him, He will forgive your sins[1] and grant you salvation from painful punishment. And whosoever does not answer Allah’s caller then he is not one who can escape in the earth, and he has no helper other than Him. They are in clear misguidance.”

Commentary

[1]

The research scholars are unanimous that all jinn are legally bound by ShariꜤah.

[2]

According to the well-known opinion, the word nafar refers to three to ten individuals and the group of jinn that were sent to the court of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم consisted of seven to nine jinn.

[3]

The Noble Quran was revealed after Prophet ʿĪsā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم, but instead of mentioning him, the jinn mentioned the name of Prophet Mūsā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم, possibly because they were Jewish.

[4]

The sins of infringing on Allah’s rights are forgiven upon embracing Islam. As for the sins of infringing on the rights of other people, such as theft, they require repentance and compensation, as embracing faith alone does not atone for such transgression.
