Hinn are supernatural creatures, in Islamic beliefs that were created before humans and jinn.[1] According to some ahadith of tabari, the hinn belonged to a tribe of angels, led by Iblis, who once fought the unbelieving jinn on earth, who bore disaster on the world. The hinn are told to be created out of fire, like the jinn. But the hinn who belong to Iblis´s group are created out of the fire of samum (scorching fire), which is metioned in the Quran (15:27) while the regular jinn are created out of marij min nar (smokeless flame), which is mentioned in (55:15).[2] Alternatively, hinn have been said to be associated with air and another creature, binn, with water in a document called, "Revelations of ʻAbdullah Al-Sayid Muhammad Habib". In the same document, hinn and binn are said to be extinct, unlike jinn.[3]
