Created from fire, the jinn do not know the unseen any more than humans do, and like humans they cannot produce anything like the Quran. These verses mention the jinn made subject to Solomon and their extraordinary abilities, by Allah’s permission, the worship some associators gave them, and their reckoning on the Day of Resurrection.

وَجَعَلُوا۟ لِلَّهِ شُرَكَآءَ ٱلْجِنَّ وَخَلَقَهُمْ وَخَرَقُوا۟ لَهُۥ بَنِينَ وَبَنَٰتٍۭ بِغَيْرِ عِلْمٍ سُبْحَٰنَهُۥ وَتَعَٰلَىٰ عَمَّا يَصِفُونَ ۝١٠٠

But they have attributed to Allāh partners - the jinn, while He has created them - and have fabricated for Him sons and daughters without knowledge. Exalted is He and high above what they describe.
