The shaykh—may Allah have mercy on him—was asked about believing jinn:

Are they required to observe the “practical ordinances of Islam,” such as fasting, prayer, and other acts of worship? Or are they required only to affirm the truth, and nothing more?

He replied:

There is no doubt that they are commanded to perform deeds beyond affirming the truth, and forbidden to perform deeds other than denying it. They are therefore required to observe both the fundamental principles and the practical ordinances, in a manner appropriate to their nature. Since they are not identical to humans in their defining characteristics and essential nature, the precise requirements of their commands and prohibitions are not identical to those imposed on humans. Nevertheless, they share with humans the same general obligation to observe commands and prohibitions, and to abide by what is lawful and unlawful. I know of no disagreement among Muslims concerning this.

Likewise, Muslims have not disputed that those among the jinn who are guilty of disbelief, wickedness, and disobedience deserve punishment in the Fire, just as humans enter it. They have, however, differed concerning the believers among them. The majority of the followers of Mālik, al-Shāfiʿī, Ahmad, Abū Yūsuf, and Muhammad hold that they will enter Paradise. It is also reported in a hadith narrated by al-Tabarānī:

“They will be on the outskirts of Paradise. Humans will see them from where they cannot see the humans.”
