1 – Allah created the Jinn for the same reason that He Almighty created humans.
( I did not create jinn and humans except to worship Me.)
2 – So due to that, they are entrusted with obligations and prohibitions, as humans have, and whosoever obeys Allah, he will be admitted to Paradise, and whoever disobeys, Hell-Fire will be his abode. There are many verses in the Quran.
1 : Allah Almighty till address them on the Judgment Day: ( ˹Allah will ask,˺ “O assembly of jinn and humans! Did messengers not come from among you, proclaiming My revelations and warning you of the coming of this Day of yours?” They will say, “We confess against ourselves!” For they have been deluded by ˹their˺ worldly life. And they will testify against themselves that they were disbelievers) Al-Anam 6: 130
There is evidence that Allah the Almighty communicated the laws to them, and that He sent them someone to warn and inform them, and it implies that Allah will hold them accountable, so if He had not held them accountable, He would not have sent messengers to them, as is the case with beasts.
2 Allah Almighty says that He will torture the disobedient among them in Hell-fire:
( Allah will say, “Enter the Fire along with the ˹evil˺ groups of jinn and humans that preceded you.” ) Al-Aaraf 7: 38 This is an indication that they will punished in fire,
(Indeed, We have destined many jinn and humans for Hell. ) Al-Aaraf 7: 179
( But My Word will come to pass: I will surely fill up Hell with jinn and humans all together.) As-Sajdah 32: 13
He Almighty addresses both jinn and humans.
3 Allah the Almighty says that when they heard the Qur’an, they warned their people of the punishment of Allah, and that they said, “We will not involve anyone with our Lord, as the Almighty said:
( ˹Remember, O Prophet,˺ when We sent a group of jinn your way to listen to the Quran. Then, upon hearing it, they said ˹to one another˺, “Listen quietly!” Then when it was over, they returned to their fellow jinn as warners. They declared, “O our fellow jinn! We have truly heard a scripture revealed after Moses, confirming what came before it. It guides to the truth and the Straight Way. O our fellow jinn! Respond to the caller of Allah and believe in him, He will forgive your sins and protect you from a painful punishment. And whoever does not respond to the caller of Allah will have no escape on earth, nor will they have any protectors against Him. It is they who are clearly astray.”) Al-Ahqaf 46: 29
( Say, ˹O Prophet,˺ “It has been revealed to me that a group of jinn listened ˹to the Quran,˺ and said ˹to their fellow jinn˺: ‘Indeed, we have heard a wondrous recitation.) Al-Jinn 72: 1
أولاً: خلق الله الجن للغاية نفسها التي خلق الإنس من أجلها:
” وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنْسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ
ثانيًا: وبناء على ذلك فهم مكلفون بالأوامر والنواهي، كما هو شأن الإنس، ومن أطاع رضي الله عنه وأدخله الجنة، ومن عصى وتمرد، فله النار، وقد دلَّ على ذلك نصوص كثيرة، منها
أ. أن الله تعالى يخاطبهم يوم القيامة
“يَا مَعْشَرَ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ أَلَمْ يَأْتِكُمْ رُسُلٌ مِنْكُمْ يَقُصُّونَ عَلَيْكُمْ آيَاتِي وَيُنْذِرُونَكُمْ لِقَاءَ يَوْمِكُمْ هَذَا قَالُوا شَهِدْنَا عَلَى أَنْفُسِنَا وَغَرَّتْهُمُ الْحَيَاةُ الدُّنْيَا وَشَهِدُوا عَلَى أَنْفُسِهِمْ أَنَّهُمْ كَانُوا كَافِرِينَ”، ففيه دليل على أن الله تعالى أبلغ إليهم الشرائع، وأنه قد جاءهم بمن ينذرهم ويبلغهم، وهو يتضمن أن الله سيحاسبهم، فلو لم يكن يحاسبهم لما أرسل إليهم الرسل كما هو الشأن في البهائم
ب. أن الله تعالى أخبر أنه يعذب العاصين منهم بالنار، كما في قوله تعالى
قَالَ ادْخُلُوا فِي أُمَمٍ قَدْ خَلَتْ مِنْ قَبْلِكُمْ مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ فِي النَّارِ”، وهو دليل على أنهم سيعذبون في النار، وكذلك قوله تعالى
وَلَقَدْ ذَرَأْنَا لِجَهَنَّمَ كَثِيرًا مِنَ الْجِنِّ وَالْإِنْسِ“، وقوله تعالى: “ وَلَكِنْ حَقَّ الْقَوْلُ مِنِّي لَأَمْلَأَنَّ جَهَنَّمَ مِنَ الْجِنَّةِ وَالنَّاسِ أَجْمَعِينَ
وقال سبحانه وتعالى في شأن الجن والإنس
وَلِمَنْ خَافَ مَقَامَ رَبِّهِ جَنَّتَانِ (٤٦) فَبِأَيِّ آلَاءِ رَبِّكُمَا تُكَذِّبَانِ”
والخطاب في هذه الآية للجن والإنس جميعًا
ثالثًا: إن الله تعالى أخبر أنهم لما سمعوا القرآن أنذروا قومهم من عذاب الله تعالى، وأنهم قالو
لن نشرك بربنا أحدًا
كما قال تعالى
وَإِذْ صَرَفْنَا إِلَيْكَ نَفَرًا مِنَ الْجِنِّ يَسْتَمِعُونَ الْقُرْآنَ فَلَمَّا حَضَرُوهُ قَالُوا أَنْصِتُوا فَلَمَّا قُضِيَ وَلَّوْا إِلَى قَوْمِهِمْ مُنْذِرِينَ. قَالُوا يَا قَوْمَنَا إِنَّا سَمِعْنَا كِتَابًا أُنْزِلَ مِنْ بَعْدِ مُوسَى مُصَدِّقًا لِمَا بَيْنَ يَدَيْهِ يَهْدِي إِلَى الْحَقِّ وَإِلَى طَرِيقٍ مُسْتَقِيمٍ. يَا قَوْمَنَا أَجِيبُوا دَاعِيَ اللَّهِ وَآمِنُوا بِهِ يَغْفِرْ لَكُمْ مِنْ ذُنُوبِكُمْ وَيُجِرْكُمْ مِنْ عَذَابٍ أَلِيمٍ. وَمَنْ لَا يُجِبْ دَاعِيَ اللَّهِ فَلَيْسَ بِمُعْجِزٍ فِي الْأَرْضِ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ مِنْ دُونِهِ أَوْلِيَاءُ أُولَئِكَ فِي ضَلَالٍ مُبِينٍ
