jinns
Wishful desert entities
Jinns is the plural of jinn, supernatural beings in Islamic and Arabic tradition—spirits created from smokeless fire, capable of good or evil, who exist alongside humans but normally remain invisible.
They feature prominently in the Quran and in folklore like the *Arabian Nights*: The sorcerer summoned jinns to do his bidding.
