Is Abu al-Jinn Iblis?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, we humans have Adam (peace be upon him) as our father, so is it said that the jinn have Iblis as their father?

Answer:
It is said that this is the case, and Allah knows best. Or Iblis was one of them; he was from the jinn, so he is of their kind, even if he was not their father. This is knowledge that is with Allah (Mighty and Majestic).
