Abstract
In this research, I defined rights linguistically and technically, as well as jinn linguistically and technically. I also demonstrated the importance of Islam in dealing with the rights of non-humans. I then collected hadiths that spoke of the rights of jinn over humans and conducted an analytical study of them. I explained the rights of jinn over humans in terms of housing, food, and other unseen matters related to the world of jinn, and the difference between them and Satan and Iblis. I also presented the most preponderant opinion, based on what I found to be the prevailing viewpoints I mentioned in my research.
