Al-Jinn
Al-Jinn ( ar, الجن, “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 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.Ali, Maulana Muhammad; ''The Holy Qur’an: Arabic Text, Translation and Commentary''; p. 1106 Summary :1-2 Certain of the genii converted to Isl ...

Mosque Of The Jinn
The Mosque of the Jinn ( ar, مسجد الجنّ, Masjid al-Jinn) is a mosque in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, located near Jannat al-Mu'alla. It is also known as the Mosque of Allegiance ( ar, مسجد بِيعات, Masjid Biy‘āt) and the Mosque of Guards ( ar, مسجد الحرس, Masjid al-Ḥaras) because the city's guards would patrol up to that point. The mosque is built at the place where a group of jinn are said to have gathered one night to hear the recitation of a portion of the Quran by Muhammad. Muhammad later met there with these jinn's leaders and accepted their embrace of Islam and their ''bay'ah'' (oath of allegiance) to him. The incident is mentioned in Al-Jinn, chapter al-Jinn of the Quran. The mosque is considered one of the oldest in Mecca and is one of the most important mosques visited in the city. References

Al-Muzzammil ( ar, المزمل, “The Enshrouded One”, “Bundled Up”, “Enfolded”) is the seventy-third chapter (''sūrah'') of the Qur'an, containing 20 verses (āyāt), which are recognized by Muslims as the word of God (Allah). Al-Muzzammil takes its name from the reference to prophet Muhammad, in his cloak praying at night, in the opening verses of the chapter.

In preparation for this revelation, God loosens the strict regulation on night prayer. Muhammad is then instructed to be patient for the disbelievers will be punished in Hell, as exemplified by a story of Pharaoh's punishment.

Juz'
A ''juzʼ'' (Arabic: جُزْءْ, plural: ''ajzāʼ'', literally meaning "part") is one of thirty parts of varying lengths into which the Quran is divided. It is also known as para (پارہ/পারা) in Iran and the Indian subcontinent. There are 30 ''juz'' in the quran. Division into ''ajzāʼ'' has no relevance to the meaning of the Qurʼān and anyone can start reading. from anywhere in the Qurʼān. During medieval times, when it was too costly for most Muslims to purchase a manuscript, copies of the Qurʼān were kept in mosques and made accessible to people; these copies frequently took the form of a series of thirty parts (''juzʼ''). Some use these divisions to facilitate recitation of the Qurʼān in a month—such as during Ramadan, when the entire Qurʼān is recited in the ''Tarawih'' prayers, typically at the rate of one ''juzʼ'' a night. A ''juzʼ'' is further divided into ''ḥizbāni'' (lit. "two groups", singular: ''ḥizb'', plural: aḥzāb), therefore, ...

For a preliminary discussion about the chronological order of chapters see page Surah. Each surah except the ninth (At-Tawba) is preceded by the phrase ' ("In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.").

Islamic Mythology
Islamic mythology is the body of myths associated with Islam and the Quran. Islam is a religion that is more concerned with social order and law than with religious ritual or myths. ''The Oxford Companion to World Mythology'' identifies a number of traditional narratives as "Islamic myths". These include a creation myth and a vision of afterlife, which Islam shares with the other Abrahamic religions, as well as the distinctively Islamic story of the '' Kaaba''. The traditional biography of the Islamic prophet Muhammad, who plays a central role in Islamic teachings, is generally recognized as being largely historical in nature, and Islam depends less on mythology than Judaism and Christianity. However, the canonical narrative includes two key supernatural events: the divine revelation of the Quran and the Isra and Mi'raj — the night journey to Jerusalem followed by the ascension to the Seventh Heaven. In addition, Islamic scriptures contain a number of legendary narratives ...
