Jin as humans have a need to eat and drink as for food is bones and feces (manure / animal) with his left hand, as the following hadith:
It means : "Prophet Muhammad said:" Food that you (O class of jinn) is any bone that still exist remnants of flesh that is in your hands and when to eat it mentioned the name of God and all the droppings (feces) your cattle. "Prophet Muhammad then continued his saying : "Therefore, do not you guys (the Companions) to protect himself (unclean clean like it had a small or large bowel using a stone or other object other than water) with both (bone and animal dung), because they are your brothers food (class of jinn) "

DJin got married and thoroughbred
As human beings, jinn did marriage and descent. As mentioned in the following verses and hadith ;
It means : "And (remember) when We said unto the angels : 'Prostrate to Adam you, then they bowed except Iblis. He is from the class of jinn, so he disobeys the command of his Lord. Why have you taken him and his descendants as a leader other than me, and they are your enemies? Evil demon in lieu (of God) for those who do wrong "
( Surat al-Kahf 18: 50 )
Descendants word in this verse shows that indeed the Jinn gave birth and descent. It also shows that the genie was also married, because it is not possible if the offspring is not married (jima) previously. Another theorem which says that the jinn also is the word of God married the following :
It means: "It's never" touched "by the man before them (the dwellers of paradise who became their husbands), nor by the jinn"
( Surah Ar-Rahman 55:56 )
Thamts words contained in said yathmitshunna in the paragraph above, in Arabic means jima. This shows that the genie was also married. In fact, in a narration it says :
( Narrated by Ibn Abd al-Barr, Ibn Jarir, Ibn Abi Hatim and Hakim )
And specifically to the devil every child of Adam is born ten children thoroughbred devil the devil, as the following hadith ;
( Al-Isra 17:64 )
The death of Jin
Jin is a soulless creature, then the same as with humans, jinns will experience death. But the devil is only partial groups genie who granted a respite until the day of his death was resurrected man. While others of his death the same as men but he was far longer than human life.
meaning: "All that is on earth will perish. And still the eternal Essence of your Lord who has greatness and glory"
( Surat ar-Rahman, 55: 26-27 )
In addition to this verse, there is a hadith which says that the jinn or syaithan will also die. Hadith in question is as follows :
( Narrated by Bukhari )
Capabilities and advantages DJin
God gives special advantages and capabilities to the genie is not given to man. Among the capabilities and advantages of the jinn is as follows:
1. Can move and move quickly
"Say 'Ifrit (clever) from the class of jinn:" I will come to you with singgsana bring it to you before you stand up from your seat: behold, I was really powerful to bring it more trustworthy. "Said one who has knowledge of AI Book "I will bring it to you before your eyes blink". And when Solomon saw it placed before him, he said: "This includes the Grace of my Lord to test me whether I am grateful or deny (to be His blessings). And whoever is grateful for the fact he was grateful for (the good) himself and whoever is ungrateful, then surely my Lord is Rich, the Most Venerable "
( Surat an-Naml: 39-40 ).
Before the Prophet was sent, the genie is often rises into the sky to listen to the news that will happen in the world. Upon hearing the news, they immediately inform the quacks and fortune-tellers. Therefore, before the Prophet was sent, soothsayers and shamans are often appropriate in providing answers and predictions. But once the Prophet was sent, the guard in the sky is tightened so that the genie can no longer hear any news and information. It is as revealed by God in
( Surat al-Jinn verses 8-9 ) :
And indeed we have been trying to find out (secret) the sky, then we found it filled with stern guards and flaming fires, and indeed we can advance to occupy several places in the sky were to listen to (steal). But now (The meaning of "now", is the time after the Prophet Muhammad was sent as an apostle) whosoever (try to) listen (like it) will certainly find a flaming fire (to burn) "
Therefore, since the coming of the Prophet to the present, let alone be able to hear the news the sky, it can not be approached. For that, what was said by quacks and fortune-tellers, was never true, but a lie. If there is a genie that will happen later this and that, then know that he had lied. Therefore, in Islam, the law prohibited a person came to ask the shamans and fortune-tellers. Because not only what the fortune-teller was a lie, but also it will thus undermine one's faith even including shirk.
What about the fact that sometimes the forecast and soothsayers are correct speech and real? This was never conveyed also by Siti Aishah to the Prophet Muhammad. Consider the following hadith :
Aisha said, a group of people asked the Prophet about the shaman. He replied : "They did not know anything". They asked again : "But Rasulullah, sometimes what they say is true and real?" Rasulullah SAW said again : "His remarks were correct because prompted by jinn. He whispered into the ears of his friend (shaman) as hens cackle, and they confuse with a hundred lies (ie, the correct one but a lie a hundred even better)"
( Narrated by Bukhari )
Therefore, in Islam, a person is prohibited to first believe in the words of shamans, just come have sinned. Prophet said :
( Narrated by Muslim )
( Narrated by Ahmad )
( Surat al-saba 34:14 )
It means: "And when We decreed Solomon's death, nothing showed them his death except termites that eat cane. And when he fell down, the jinn know that if they had a supernatural know they would not be fixed in a humiliating punishment "
3. DJin first to identify technology
As already explained above, that God subjected the jinn to Solomon group. They are obedient and submissive to him, including willing to move the royal throne of Queen Bilqis. Because of their heavy work and many, of course they need the skills and intelligence and incredible finesse. This is as recorded in God's word
( letter Saba verses 12-13 ) :
"And We (subjected) the wind for Solomon, the same journey in the morning with a trip a month and the same journey in the evening with a trip a month (again) and we circulate the liquid copper for him. And there is a party of the jinn who worked before him (under power) with the permission of their Lord. and who among them deviated from Our command, We feel her torment of hell fire burning. the genie was made to Solomon what he wanted from high buildings and statues and plate-plate (magnitude) such as ponds and pots are fixed (above the stove). Work O family of David to give thanks (to Allah). and few of My servants are grateful ".
(see in Majmoo al-Fatawa of Ibn Taymiyyah: 11/309).
4. DJin is subject to change shape
Among the capabilities jinn (devil) the other is that they can change shape; sometimes intangible tangible also human and sometimes animal. This has happened in the battle of Badr, where the devil (jinn kafir) tangible in the form Suraqah bin Malik, and he promised the polytheists that they will be able to win the battle against the Muslims. But when the fighting has occurred and the angels come down from heaven to help the Muslims, what the devil incarnate in the form Suraqah bin Malik had run helter skelter. It is recorded in the Qur'an
( Surat al-Anfal verse 48 ) :
"And when Satan made them look good at their job and say:" No human being who can win against you today, and indeed this is my protector. "Then, when both forces have been able to see each other see (face), the devil turning it back and said: "Verily I innocent than you, actually I can see what you all can not see; indeed I fear Allah". And Allah is severe in punishment.
In a hadith narrated by Imam Bukhari also narrated that the disbelieving jinn (demons) never came to Abu Huraira in human form. The following translation of the hadith is:
"From Abu Hurairah, he said:" One day the Prophet asked me to keep the treasure of zakat in Ramadan. Suddenly there came a man looking at the food and took it. I then said: "Do not first take, before I tell you the particulars to the Messenger of Allah ". The man replied: 'My people who are married and now really in need of food for my family." Hearing that I was finally allowed him to take food. When morning came, the Prophet said: "O Abu Huraira, what did you do yesterday?" I replied: "O Messenger of Allah, a man complain about his family troubles, and he begged alms treasure that moment, then I invite him take it." Prophet Muhammad and then said again: "He's been fooling you, O Abu Hurayrah, and tomorrow will be back again". Knowing he'll be back again, next day I watched him carefully and it turns out exactly what the Messenger of Allah, he has been in the treasure chamber of zakat while picking treasures collected zakat and he took it. Seeing that, I say again: "Do not you take the treasure it until there is permission from the Prophet". The man replied: "I am really in desperate need of food now, my family is now are waiting to starve. I promise not to come back again tomorrow. "With that, I felt pity and finally I invite him to take the property back zakat.Keesokan day He asked again:" What did you do yesterday, O Abu Hurayrah? "I replied : "People came back yesterday and asked for alms property. Because his family had long been waiting starve, I finally allowed him to take the property back to the charity." At that, the Apostle says again: "He has lied to you and tomorrow will be back for a third time ". The next day the man was back again and as usual he took the treasure charity that has been accumulated in the warehouse. Seeing that, I say again:" Do not take first, I will beg permission to the Prophet Muhammad first. Did not you promise yesterday will not be back again but why now back too? "The man replied:" Allow for the last time I took the treasure of this charity and in return I will teach you a sentence which, if you read God will always keep you and you do not will be touched and approached by Sethan so the morning ". I felt attracted to her words and then I asked what was the sentence. He replied: "When you go to sleep, do not forget to read the first paragraph kursyi because with God will keep you and you will not be approached by the devil so that the morning comes". This time I was allowed to take property of zakat. The next day the Prophet again asked what I had done yesterday and I said: "O Messenger of Allah, I am forced to allow it to take the property back to charity after he taught me a very useful phrase and berfaidah". The Apostle then asked again: "The sentence what he preaches?" I replied that he teaches verse Kursyi from start to finish and he said that if I read it God will keep me till the morning. Prophet then said: "Now what is he to say really but still he has managed to fool you by taking the property of zakat. Do you know who the man who came to you three times that? "I replied:" No, I do not know ". Rasulullah SAW said again: "But know that he is the devil".
( Narrated by Bukhari )
In addition to the human form, jinns (demons) can also be intangible in the form of animals and animals such as camels, dogs, donkeys, snakes, cows or cats. However, of the many animals, most often used by the genie is in the form of black dogs and cats. In this case sallallahu SAW said :
( Narrated by Muslim )
While the general form of the jinn who inhabit the house is a snake. In a hadith narrated by Imam Muslim, the Prophet warned to avoid indiscriminate killing snakes found in the house, it may be that the snake is not a real snake but the snake incarnation of the jinn. In a hadith it is said, that if a snake in the house, then let stand for three days. If within three days there, then kill it because he's a snake and not a snake genie incarnation. Hadith in question is as follows :
"Rasulullah SAW said:" Surely there is a jinn in Madina who had converted to Islam. If you see something (meaning the animal or the like) then let (not killed) for three days. If After the day is still there and visible, then kill it because he's the devil "
( Narrated by Muslim )

( Narrated by Thabrany with valid sanad )
DJin weaknesses
Although the jinn and devils have abilities that are not owned by humans, but al-Quran expressly says that essentially tricks the devil and it is weak. Here are some of the weaknesses of the jinn, among them:
1. Can not beat the righteous.
Evidence that the devil or jinn would not be able to defeat the godly are the words of the devil himself when in dialogue with God (Surat al-Hijr : 39) :
"He said:" My Lord, since you have decided that I go astray, surely I will make them look good (immoral deeds) in the earth, and surely I will mislead them all, except that Thy servants among them sincere ".
From this verse it is understood that the devil can cause a person to master is because of his sin. When someone is close to God, then the demons will flee and will never go near him let alone master it.
if someone really holds true religion by faith and stick with a tough, then the devil would be scared and run away. This is for instance contained in the self Umar bin Khattab. In a
( hadith narrated by Imam Turmudzi ), Rasulullah SAW said to Umar: "Verily, Satan is very afraid of ye, O Umar"
Not just to 'Umar, but the devil (disbelievers) will also be frightened by people who truly believe in his faith. In al-wan Bidayah Nihayah, Ibn Kathir cites a hadith had the following :
"Verily, the believers will be able to control (beat) satanic as any one of you who can control his camel when traveling"
( Narrated by Ahmad )
In fact, if someone truly and constantly obedient and pious, he can bring the genie qarin (accompanying person, because every human being must be accompanied by Satan "disbelievers" on his left and an angel on his right or often referred to qarin) in. of Islam. It is mentioned in a hadith narrated by Imam Muslim following :
( Narrated by Muslim )
Among the miracles of the Prophet Sulayman was able to conquer jinns and devils so that they can work under his orders. This is as defined in the following verses of the Koran are in (Shad letter 38: 36-38):
"Then We subjected the wind that blows him well according to anywhere she wants, and (We subjected to him anyway) all the demons builder and diver, and the other demons are bound in shackles".
This miracle given to Prophet Sulayman as the fulfillment of his prayer that says :
"And give me the kingdom that is not given to someone after me"
( Surat 38:35 Shad ).
Prayer of Solomon is what causes the Messenger of Allah is not so for the jin binding that comes with throwing darts at his face. In a Muslim hadith says :
"From Abu Darda said:" One day the Prophet woke up, suddenly we heard the Messenger of Allah said: "I seek refuge in Allah from you", then the Prophet Muhammad also said: "Allah has cursed you" three times. Rasulullah then spread out his arms as if he is to receive something. When the Prophet finished the prayer, we asked: "Messenger of Allah, we heard you say something that we have never heard before. We also saw you open your hands. "Prophet replied:" Just now the devil, enemy of God came to bring fire arrows to plugged in my face, then I say: "I seek refuge in Allah from you" three times, then I also said: "God has cursed you with a perfect curse" three times. Then I intend to take it. If I remember the prayer of our brother, Solomon, of course I'll tie it so it becomes child's play from Medinah "
( Narrated by Muslim )
Satan and demons can not resemble the shape and face of the Prophet. Therefore, if someone had a dream to see the Prophet Muhammad, then he really has seen it. In the hadeeth it says :
It means: "Messenger of Peace and Blessings of Allah be upon him said:" Those who dream to see me, then he really has seen me, because Satan can not be like me "
( Narrated by Muslim )
Although the jinn and devils has the advantage can move quickly, but they will not be able to pass through the boundaries that have been defined which can not be passed except by the angels. Because if they dare to pass through, then they will perish and disintegrate. Because of that, the genie can not find and steal information from the sky so that what is whispered to the builders, soothsayers and shamans are mere lies. For more details about this, can be seen in.
( Surat al-Rahman 33-35 )
Hi pilgrims jinn, and human. if you are able to penetrate the (cross) over the heavens and the earth, then across, you can not penetrate except by force. Which favors of your Lord will you Which you deny? To you, (jinns and men) are released and the liquid copper flame then you could not save themselves (from it).
6. DJin can not open the door that was closed by the name of Allah
In a hadith the Prophet SAW said :
