Iblis: Jinn or Angel?

Question:

ASSALAAM-WALALIKUM Sheikh Hisham
Bismillah-hir rahman-nir Rahim

I was told that Iblese {satan who tempted Prophet Adam [as] & Eve [as]was not an angel but a Jinn. Until today, looking at a vedio ( Sheikh Hisham Kabbani – The Nature of the Ruh (Soul) – Part 1 } listening to you referring to him as an angel. Please help me to understand Inshallah.

Answer:

Wa `alaykum salam,

He talks about the rank and position of Iblis being among (with) the angels, but he was actually from the jinn. I strongly suggest that you read MSH’s book, Angels Unveiled.  The book can be purchased online at ISN1.net if you wish.

He specifically writes about Iblis being from the jinn (and among the angels) in the section  Angels and the Creation of Adam.
