Re: Do Jinn Exist as Seperate Beings?

Salaam Arnold and Maxq,
How would you translate the following verse?
al-Baqarah 002158
2158
Transliteration
Inna alssafa waalmarwata min shaAAa-iri Allahi faman hajja albayta awi iAAtamara fala junaha AAalayhi an yattawwafa bihima waman tatawwaAAa khayran fa-inna Allaha shakirun AAaleemun
This is the translation provided by the Free-Minds
The camel and goat heavy with milk are amongst God's decrees. So whosoever makes Pilgrimage to the sanctuary, or is merely passing through, commits no error that he should partake of them. And whoever donates for goodness, then God is Appreciative, Knowledgeable.
Thanks in advance.
Mohamed

What do you think about the following literal translation from this site http//yaqb.org/
Literal That the Saffa/rock and the Marwa/flint stones (are) from God's methods/ways of worship, so who performed hajj (to) the House/Home , or headed to/visited so no offense/guilt/sin on him that (he) circles/walks around by them, and who volunteered good , so that God (is) thankful/grateful, knowledgeable.
Thank you my freind, God bless you and God bless us all. Ameen Ya'Rabbi!
