Al-Jinn
Al-Jinn (, “The Jinn”) is the 72nd chapter (sūrah) of the Quran with 28 verses (āyāt). The name as well as the topic of this chapter is jinn. Similar to angels, the jinn are beings invisible to the naked human eye. In the Quran, it is stated in more than one instance that humans are created from the earth and jinn from smokeless fire. Although "Al-Jinn" is a Meccan surah, it is generally agreed that it was revealed much later than any other sura contained in "Juz' Tabāraka -lladhi" (which covers surahs 67 to 77). Abdullah Yusuf  Ali says that it is "tolerably certain" that "Al-Jinn" was revealed around 2 B.H. when Muhammad was evangelising near present-day Ta'if. Maulana Muhammad Ali agrees with the date of around 2 B.H., saying that this surah was revealed at a time when opposition to the Prophet's message was reaching a climax.
