Trees Can Speak, Witnesses of the Jinn’s Islam
(HR. Muslim)
“Indeed, this incident is proof of the greatness of Allah and the glory of Prophet Muhammad ï·º.”
One quiet night, Prophet Muhammad ï·º walked alone outside the city to pray to Allah.
Suddenly, a group of jinn came who wanted to know the teachings brought by Prophet Muhammad ï·º.
Without fear, Prophet Muhammad ï·º greeted them warmly. He then sat down and recited the holy verses of the Qur’an in a soft and wise voice.
Near that place, there was a large tree. The tree witnessed everything. Then with Allah’s permission, the tree began to speak!
“O jinn who have come, listen! This is the messenger of Allah, the bearer of light and truth!”
All the jinn present were amazed. They listened to the recitation of the Qur’an solemnly. Their hearts became calm, and they believed that Muhammad ï·º was a prophet sent for all creatures.
That night, with the light that came from the Quran, the jinn converted to Islam and believed in Allah. They followed the guidance of Prophet Muhammad ï·º and returned to their people to spread the teachings of truth.
Subhanallah! Allah showed His miracles, even through a tree that could speak and convey the truth. ***
