  Who Is Head Of All Shaitans/Satans And “Iblis” Amongs The “Jins” He Was Created From The Smokeless Flame Of Fire.

(Allah) Said: "What Prevented Thee From Prostrating When I Commanded Thee?" He Said: "I Am Better Than He: Thou Didst Create Me From Fire, And Him From Clay."
[Al-Qur'an Ch 7 Verse 12]

"Behold! We Said To The Angels, "Bow Down To Adam." They Bowed Down Except Iblis He Was One Of The Jinns." [Al-Qur’an 18:50]

“And The Jinn, We Created Aforetime From The Smokeless Flame Of Fire.”

[Al-Qur’an Ch 15:27]

“And The Jinns Did He Create From A Smokeless Flame Of Fire.”

[Al-Qur’an Ch 55:15]

According To A Hadeeth Narrated By ‘Aa’ishah, The Prophet (Peace And Blessings Of Allaah Be Upon Him) Said: “The Angels Were Created From Light, The Jinn Were Created From Fire, And Aadam Was Created From That Which Has Been Described To You.”

[Sahi Muslim Hadith 5314]

IBLES/LUCIFER  IS ONE AND HE IS THE HEAD OF ALL SATAN'S/SHAITAN, THAT’S HIS(IBLIS) ARMY.

The Word Jinn Comes From An Arabic Root Meaning “Hidden From Sight”. Allaah Says (Interpretation Of The Meaning):

“… Verily He [Shaytaan] And His Qabeeluhu [His Soldiers From The Jinn Or His Tribe] See You From Where You Cannot See Them…” [Al-A’raaf 7:27]

SHAITAN CAN BE FROM JINS AND HUMANS/ SHAITAN  CAN BE BOTH JINS AND HUMANS.

“And so We have appointed for every Prophet enemies - Shayatin (devils) among mankind and jinns, inspiring one another with adorned speech as a delusion (or by way of deception)”…

[Al-Qur’an ch 6 Verse 112] 

“Say: I Seek Refuge With The Lord And Cherisher Of Mankind, The King (Or Ruler) Of Mankind,

The God (Or Judge) Of Mankind,- From The Mischief Of The Whisperer (Of Evil), Who Withdraws (After His   Whisper),- (The Same) Who Whispers Into The Hearts Of Mankind,- Among Jinns And Among Men.”

[Al-Qur’an Ch 114 Verse 1-6]

This Chapter Of The Qur’an Reveals That Shaitan Is The Person Who, Misguides Others, Taking Them Always From The Truth, Who Make Or Encourages Others Involving In Evil’s Activities , Who Invites Towards Dirty, Whether He/She From Jins Or Humans Are Shaitan. Normally We Think Satan Means He Has A Very Dangerous Face, Blood Is Flowing From His Mouth Etc.. In Stories Heard From Childhood But Actually “Shaitan Is The Person Who Whisperer  Or  Invites Others Towards Dirty Or Evil Work,  Who Itself Involved In Dirty Work And Invites Others Is Shaitan.

SHAITAN CAN BE MALE AND FEMALE :

EVERYTHING MADE IN PAIRS

“And Of Everything We Have Created Pairs.”

[Al-Qur’an 51:49]

As We Stated Above That Shaitan Can Be From Jins And Humans. So Jins And Humans Are Also Created In Pairs Male’s And Female’s.

Allah Knows The Best.
