What is “jinn” ?

What does "jinn" mean? Are they good or bad? Are they also tested like human beings?

Answer:

The word Jinn means “hidden, covered being, unseen thing”. It is the name given to the spiritual beings which can turn into various types and styles that are created from fire.

Those misleading people by canalizing them doing evils are Devils.
Those spiritual beings having both the evil ones and the good ones are called the

Jinns
