Question:
This person says, "O honorable Shaykh, the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was sent to the two groups to call them to the oneness of Allah and warn them against associating partners with Allah. But were the messengers before him sent to the jinn, or do the jinn have specific prophets for them? Please advise us, and may Allah reward you."
Answer:
Answer: In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the worlds, and may Allah send prayers and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, his family, and all his Companions. The messengers are specific to humans; Allah sent them from among the humans. The jinn follow the humans. The jinn are obligated and commanded just like the humans in every time and place. And the jinn and humans were not created except to worship. It was said, "And I did not create the jinn and humans except to worship Me." Except to worship. Yes. May Allah reward you.
