Jinnis are supernatural creatures that are believed to exist in Islamic mythology and Middle Eastern folklore. These beings are sometimes referred to as genies or djinns. Other synonyms for jinnis include shaytans, marids, and ifrits. Shaytans are evil jinnis that are often associated with demons, while marids are one of the most powerful types of jinnis known for their size and strength. Ifrits are fire jinnis and are typically portrayed as malevolent and dangerous. Despite their differences, all of these beings are considered to be powerful, supernatural entities that possess magical abilities, including the power to grant wishes to humans who free them from confinement.
