Thanks for the help once again. This clears up some of my questions on the Jinn. Although the Christian Bible leaves out mention of the Jinn, early Christian text not included in the Bible hints at their existance. After all, the writings in the Bible were assembled by imperfect humans based on imperfect judgement as to what is "appropriote" for believers to read. There are many early Christian texts that are quite crutial IMO for understanding. Western culture(Christian) called them Incubi, Syphs, and/or Succabae.
1. I have another question. What is the Fihrist? I know that it was completed during the most advanced time of Arabic culture.
2. One more. What does the "C.E." represent in Arabic dating? For instance western calenders use B.C./A.D. then a numberical date.
Thanks:D
