The Jinni

A jinni, also known as a genie, is a supernatural being from Middle Eastern mythology. Traditionally, jinn are thought to be made of smokeless fire and possess powers that can influence the physical world. They are often depicted as capable of granting wishes, but their nature is complex—they can be benevolent, mischievous, or malevolent. Unlike popular portrayals, jinni are not just magical servants; they are independent entities with their own motives and characteristics, existing in a realm parallel to humans and subject to their own rules and existence beyond mere wish-granting.
