Allah commands His Messenger to inform his people that the Jinns listened to
the Qur'an, believed in it, affirmed its truthfulness and adhered to it. So
Allah says,
[قُلْ أُوحِىَ
إِلَىَّ أَنَّهُ اسْتَمَعَ نَفَرٌ مِّنَ الْجِنِّ فَقَالُواْ إِنَّا سَمِعْنَا
قُرْءَانَاً عَجَباً يَهْدِى إِلَى الرُّشْدِ]
(Say: "It has been revealed to me that a group of Jinn listened. They said:
`Verily, we have heard a wonderful Recitation! It guides to the right path''')
meaning, to what is correct and success.
[فَـَامَنَّا بِهِ
وَلَن نُّشرِكَ بِرَبِّنَآ أَحَداً]
(and we have believed therein, and we shall never join anything with our
Lord.) This position (that they took) is similar to what Allah said,
[وَإِذْ صَرَفْنَآ
إِلَيْكَ نَفَراً مِّنَ الْجِنِّ يَسْتَمِعُونَ الْقُرْءَانَ]
(And when We sent towards you a group of the Jinns listening to the Qur'an.)
(46:29) We have already presented the Hadiths that have been narrated concerning
this, so there is no need to repeat them here. Concerning Allah's statement,
[وَأَنَّهُ تَعَـلَى
جَدُّ رَبِّنَا]
(And He, exalted be the Jadd of our Lord,) `Ali bin Abi Talhah reported from
Ibn `Abbas that he said concerning Allah's statement,
[جَدُّ
رَبِّنَا]
(the Jadd of our Lord,) "This means, His actions, His commands and His
power.'' Ad-Dahhak reported from Ibn `Abbas that he said, "Allah's Jadd is His
blessings, His power and His favor upon His creation.'' It has been reported
from Mujahid and `Ikrimah that they said, "It (Jadd) is the magnificence of our
Lord.'' Qatadah said, "Exalted is His magnificence, His greatness and His
command.'' As-Suddi said, "Exalted is the command of our Lord.'' It has been
reported from Abu Ad-Darda', Mujahid and Ibn Jurayj that they said, "Exalted is
His remembrance (Dhikr).''
