Question
There is a verse in the Quran in which Allah says that He has created men and jinns for the sole purpose that they worship Him. Does this mean that jinns will also be taken into account on the Day of Judgment?Answer
Walaikum assalam wa rahmatullah,
Yes, moral responsibility entails being taken to account. However, the nature of the reckoning of the jinn is not decisively known.
Wassalam,
Faraz Rabbani
