The Holy Quran 72:1 — Surah Al-Jinn

Arabic text

قُلْ أُوحِىَ إِلَىَّ أَنَّهُ ٱسْتَمَعَ نَفَرٌ مِّنَ ٱلْجِنِّ فَقَالُوٓا۟ إِنَّا سَمِعْنَا قُرْءَانًا عَجَبًا

Translation

(O Rasulullaah ﷺ!) Say, "Revelation has come to me (informing me) that a group of Jinn attentively listened to me (reciting the Qur'aan) and said (to their fellow Jinn when they returned to their places), 'Indeed we have heard a most astounding (wonderful) Qur'aan (in the morning prayer).'"

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The existence of the jinn: Shah Abd al-Aziz ﵀ has made a very extensive and detailed discussion of the existence and reality of the jinn in his commentary on this surah. And in Arabic, “Akam al-Marjan fi Ahkam al-Jann” (“The Coral Hills on the Rulings concerning the Jinn”) is a very comprehensive book on this subject; whoever is interested may study it.
