قَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى: حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ الْأَسْوَدِ، ثَنَا أَبُو أُسَامَةَ، ثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ سِنَانٍ أَبُو فَرْوَةَ الرَّهَاوِيُّ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو مُنِيبٍ الْحِمْصِيُّ، عَنْ يَحْيَى ابْنِ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ أَبِي الدَّرْدَاءِ ؓ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ:

« خَلَقَ اللهُ تَعَالَى الْجِنَّ ثَلَاثَةَ أَصْنَافٍ؛ صِنْفٌ حَيَّاتٌ وَعَقَارِبُ وَخَشَاشُ الْأَرْضِ، وَصِنْفٌ كَالرِّيحِ فِي الْهَوَاءِ، وَصِنْفٌ عَلَيْهِمُ الْحِسَابُ وَالْعِقَابُ. وَخَلَقَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ الْإِنْسَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَصْنَافٍ: صِنْفٌ كَالْبَهَائِمِ، قَالَ اللهُ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ لَهُمْ قُلُوبٌ لا يَفْقَهُونَ بِهَا الْآيَةَ. وَصِنْفٌ أَجْسَادُهُمْ أَجْسَادُ بَنِي آدَمَ وَأَرْوَاحُهُمْ أَرْوَاحُ الشَّيَاطِينِ، وَصِنْفٌ فِي ظِلِّ اللهِ تَعَالَى يَوْمَ لَا ظِلَّ إِلَّا ظِلُّهُ

✧ "Allah, the Exalted, created the jinn in three kinds: a kind of serpents, scorpions, and creeping things of the earth; a kind like the wind in the air; and a kind upon whom is reckoning and punishment. And Allah, Mighty and Majestic, created mankind in three kinds: a kind like cattle—Allah, Mighty and Majestic, said: 'They have hearts wherewith they understand not'—the verse; a kind whose bodies are the bodies of the children of Adam and whose spirits are the spirits of devils; and a kind in the shade of Allah, the Exalted, on a day when there is no shade but His shade."
