A being from Arabian folklore that is made of smokeless fire. In pre-Islamic religion, some Arab tribes worshiped them. In Islamic religion, djinn are one of three groups (the others being angels and humans) who were created by Allah. As such, they also are intelligent and possess free will, able to choose either good or evil. They tend to live in the wilderness, far away from humans. They have various abilities, depending on their type. Some can fly; others take on different shapes.
