18580 - Ali ibn al-Husayn narrated to us, Suwayd ibn Abd al-Aziz narrated to us, a man named to us from Ibn Jurayj, from Mujahid, regarding 'And when We directed toward you a group of the jinn,' he said: 'They were seven individuals: three from the people of Harran and four from the people of Nusaybin. Their names were Hayy, Hassi, Massi, Shasir, Nasir, al-Ard, Ibyan, and al-Ahqam.'(1)

18581 - My father narrated to us, he said: I was told by Jarir, from Layth, from Mujahid, from Ibn Abbas, who said: 'The believing jinn will not enter Paradise, because they are from the progeny of Iblis, and the progeny of Iblis will not enter Paradise.'(2)

18582 - From al-Zubayr, regarding 'And when We directed toward you a group of the jinn listening to the Quran,' he said: 'At Nakhlah,' and said: 'The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) was praying the last Isha prayer, and they almost crowded upon him.'(3)

His saying, the Almighty: "So be patient, as were those of determination among the messengers"

18583 - Muhammad ibn al-Hajjaj al-Hadrami narrated to us, al-Sari ibn Hayyan narrated to us, Abbad ibn Abbad narrated to us, Mujalid ibn Said narrated to us, from al-Sha'bi, from Masruq, who said: Aisha said to me: 'The Messenger of Allah (may Allah bless him and grant him peace) remained fasting, then he continued it [without breaking it], then he remained fasting, then he continued it, then he remained fasting.' He said: "O Aisha, the world does not befit Muhammad or the family of Muhammad. O Aisha, Allah was not pleased with those of determination among the messengers except by their patience in what is hateful and their patience away from what is beloved. Then, He was not pleased with me except by tasking me with what He tasked them with. He said: 'So be patient, as were those of determination among the messengers.' By Allah, I shall certainly be patient as they were patient, to the best of my ability, and there is no power except through Allah."'(4)
