Haunted houses

There are such houses and such fearful incidents inside such houses.
Such houses, almost are isolated but not always the isolated houses.

I once asked the late interpreter of the Quran Mohammed Ali Hassan Al-Hilly about such a thing as a house being haunted or occupied by genies (some call them elf; the bad genies may be called "demons".)

So I asked him: Is this true?
He said: Yes, it can be.
I said: Why do such genies do something like that?
He said: "They want to drive people out of that house; because they want to take that house as a centre or a headquarter for them."

Here, we should differentiate between human souls (the ghosts of the dead men: these cannot do anything material like these incidents),

and between Genies : the living genies: their bodies are created from gases, so they cannot be seen in ordinary circumstances, but they can show us their persons and can make us hear them and they can do material work.

The true man is the soul; the material body is only a vehicle as you said.
But God is God and man is man: man is the servant of God.
We pray that God may be pleased with us, and not to be like God or to unite with God.
God is Almighty and Most Gracious.
We ask Him to forgive us our sins and to pardon our mistakes, so that in the afterlife we may prosper in His paradise, in case we do not associate others with Him and we do not equalize Him with others.

[John Wassov]

So what's the difference between the ability and the capability of the genie and the human soul? and has the genie a soul like that of man?

So what's the difference between the ability and the capability of the genie and the human soul? and has the genie a soul like that of man?

The difference between man and genie is that the body of man is created from dust, while the body of genie is created from gases.

So as the man has an aethereal soul and a meterial body, so likewise the genie has an aethereal soul also and a material body, but only his body is created from gases; and for this reason the genie is usually invisible.

Then when the genie dies, his aethereal soul will depart from his material body, just as how the soul of man departs from his body when man dies.
