Bishr ibn Khalid related to us; Muhammad ibn Ja‘far informed us, from Shu‘ba, from Sulayman, from Ibrahim, from Abu Ma‘mar, from Abdullah (may Allah be pleased with him), concerning this verse: “Those whom they call upon seek a means of approach to their Lord…” (Qur’an 17:57). He said: “They were some jinn whom people used to worship; then the jinn accepted Islam.”
