We, Muslims, call demons evil or bad Jinn. They belong to a Jinn speci much like the human speci. They are invisible to us (except for a gifted few). They have abilities and skills that is beyond most of our understanding. According to the Quran, they are made of the flame of smokeless fire, whereas us humans are made of Mud (Water and earth). Jinn have a lifespan that is longer than that of Humans. And just like Humans, Jinn also have families, mothers, fathers, children, communities and different religions and believes. There is Good Jinn and then there is also Bad Jinn. The Bad Jinn is what some humans have encountered as demons. The bad Jinn usually play tricks on us, and help some with skills that appear to be magic in nature. Surah Jinn reveals a lot about Jinn beings.

In Islam, demons are known as "shayatin" or "jinn" which are supernatural beings created from smokeless fire by Allah. They are believed to have free will and can be good or evil.
