"Could extraterrestrial life be made of corkscrew-shaped particles of interstellar dust? Intriguing new evidence of life-like structures that form from inorganic substances in space have been revealed in the New Journal of Physics. The findings hint at the possibility that life beyond earth may not necessarily use carbon-based molecules as its building blocks. They also point to a possible new explanation for the origin of life on earth."

A JINN IS A CREATION OF ALLAH swt AND WAS CREATED ONLY TO OBEY ALLAH AND JUST LIKE US HUMANS THE JINNS LIVE, EAT, DIE, LAUGH AND DO EVERYTHING THAT WE DO AND THE ONLY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN US AND THEM IS THAT THEY HAVE THE POWER TO CHANGE THEIR PHYSICAL FORM AND CAN SEE THE ANGLES AND STUFF WHICH WE CANT SEE. BUT THE JINNS ARE NOT AS STRONG AS US HUMANS SINCE ALLAH swt HAS SAID IN THE HOLY AL FURQAN THAT WE HUMANS ARE MORE PREFERED AND LOVED MORE THAN THE JINNS

Allah preferred Human and loved more than Jinns is not a measurement how strong a Jinn is. Since no Standard is sets. Examples of Standard may be how strong its destructive capabilities, technological advancement, Psychological influencing capabilities.
Set a standard of how strong, for example travel speed from point A to point B. Measure the Travel Speed of Jinn and Human, then compare it. by the standard stated Who is fastest, is the Winner.

Dear All
Dr Shabbir of www.ourbeacon.com interprets Jinn as
Jinn = Something hidden, rarely seen. So, after using Tasreef, Al-Jinn = The
nomads. Jannah from the same root means a garden hidden in foliage. When the
Jinns or nomads move to dwell in towns and become civilized, they are referred
to as Ins.
Ins = Urbanites = Humans including the nomads.More at http//ourbeacon.com/wp-content/uploads/admin2/2010/11/QXP200808iv.pdf

Jinn defined by G A Parwez
Jinn ? (Jeem-noon-noon).
Janna means hidden. According to Raghib, it means, not only hidden from the eyes but also from senses ? In verse 6/77 the Qur?an says ?When the night spread darkness over him, he saw a star. Jananun, means grave, as it hides the dead body. Iblees is also a Jinn as this force remains hidden from the eyes (18/30)
Janeen, is an infant in mother?s womb ? Junnantun ? is the shield or any weapon with which a person protects himself (58/16). ? Jinnatun ? means madness (23/25). The Arabs thought that majnoon was a person who was afflicted by a Jinn. According to Raghib ?al-Jinno? is being used in two ways. Firstly all the hidden forces (spiritual, positive) and in this context it also includes ?angels?, and those hidden forces which are evil are called ?Shiateen? (Taj, Raghib). The Qur?an also mentions about the Arabs doing worship of Jinn and there it means ?angels? (37/15 (Taj, Raghib).
The earth was in the beginning, in the form of a molten fire and it took billions of years to cool down to a tolerable temperature when it was suitable for the habitation of mankind. Before this there existed some creation, of which man was the successor (Khalifa). That specie was created out of fire (15/27). That specie is extinct now ? and is referred to as ?al-jaann?.
The Qur?an has referred to and addresses ?Jinn and Ins? in many verses together. Ins, (as explained under the heading ?Ins) means tribes settled at a place, and Jinn means those Bedouins, nomadic tribes or gypsies who kept on wandering from place to place and remained in deserts of forests away from cities. In Arabia such people were great in number. Since the message of the Qur?an was for both the types, it has pointedly addressed both of them. For instance
In verse 6/131 ?Oh Ye, assembly of Jinn and Ins don?t you know that a Rasool came to you from amongst you?. (In the Qur?an no reference is there to show that at any time a Jinn was also a Rasool). It is further clarified in verse 735 that the Rusul (plural) were from Bani-Adam and sent towards them. In Surahs Jinn and Ahq?af, a reference occurs where it is mentioned that a group of Jinns came to the Rasool to listen to the Qur?an (72/1, 46/29). This also shows that the group who came to Rasool-Allah (PBUH) were actually human beings, but from uncivilized tribes.

I think my meditation has taken me to a point where I understand jinn very well.
Jinn/spirits, seem to be ghosts of unreal concepts. (aka idols, assigning infinity to universe, claiming random origins, etc) However in a divine mind, that can cause quite some perplexion. Therefore they may delude their believers into etablishing belief in them. Ultimately one can understand that that would cause hellfire. Absolute belief, in the unreal, and unnatural behaviour.
Belief in multiple gods ultimately is a self-defilation on par with sexual abuse.
On a lesser scale, feelings of promiscuity, and satan is the spirit of promiscuity. Typically when watching disbelievers popmusic, for instance. Note, I am not saying music is illegal, but it depends on who writes it. Feelings like that clearly is satan, when the other does not respect a relationship of trust, and simply goes on to the next "lover".
A spirit free and peaceful mind, seems to come from correct dualistic (non-pantheistic) monotheistic teachings.
Correct monotheistic belief, leads to a gradual purification of the mind. Prayer contains the most essential elements of faith, and therefore we talk of prayer and purification. One can also meditate on aspects of the creator, ultimately believing in it, and making it a part of ones monotheistic life.Peace.
