Jahanam           جهنم
Most commonly understood to mean Hell. In fact, it is one of the levels of Hell.
There are seven levels of Hellfire:
1.    Jaheem - the shallowest level of Hell. It is reserved for those who believed in Allah and His Messenger, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, but who ignored His commands.
2.    Jahanam - a deeper level where the idol-worshippers are to be sent on the Day of Judgement.
3.    Sa'ir - is reserved for the worshippers of fire.
4.    Saqar - this is where those who did not believe in Allah will be sent on the Day of Judgement.
5.    Ladha - will be the home of the Jews.
6.    Hawiyah - will be the abode of the Christians.
7.    Hutama - the deepest level of Hellfire. This is where the religious hypocrites will spend eternity. The worst of Allah's creation are the Munafiqeen (Hypocrites), whether they be mankind or Jinn, for they outwardly appear to accept, but inwardly reject, Allah and His Messenger.

Jahliyah         Ignorance  The Pre-Islamic Era  الجاهلية
Ignorance. This involves relying on what is other than the truth. This is why the age prior to the advent of Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, is called Jahiliyah. Many people believed, for example, in Allah, but tried to attain His pleasure through worshipping another medium such as a stone, fire, man, wood, animal, etc., rather than following His guidance which had been revealed to the earlier messengers. The age of Jahiliyah 'ended' when the Final Revelation, the Holy Qur'an, was revealed to mankind and the Jinn. However, it still exists wherever this Last Message from God has not reached. Any deviation from the True Path is no longer considered as Jahiliyah, but as Kufr, for the truth has been distinguished from falsehood.

Jibreel, peace be upon him    جبريل عليه السلام

He is now sent to help the very religious against the temptations of Shaitan (Satan) at the time of death. His epithet is Roohul Amin (The Spirit of Truth) (Ash-Shu'ara (26):193).

Jinn (Al)     الجن
"The Jinn". A race of created beings that are made out of smokeless fire.
They are like the Ins (human race) in many ways:
1.    They are born, have children and die. They also have friends and family.
2.    There are Muslims and Kuffar amongst them.
3.    They eat food, but their food consists mainly of bones and stool.
They differ from us in many ways too:
1.    Their lifespan is much longer than ours.
2.    They can see us and sometimes are able to dwell within us.
3.    They need no form of transport.
4.    They need no housing. The Muslims amongst them like to live in the Masajid and pray, but the unbelievers tend to live in the bathrooms of non-religious Ins (human beings). The best way to make sure that they do not intermix with us (i.e. enter our bodies or houses or eat food with us) is to remember Allah constantly and to read the Holy Qur'an as much as possible. Surah 72 of the Holy Qur'an.

Junub      جنب
Junub - a person having Janaba - means to be in a state of  ceremonial impurity or defilement. A male becomes junub on having sexual intercourse or simply on the emission of semen in sleep or otherwise. A female also becomes junub as a result of  sexual intercourse as well as when she is menstruating or having postnatal bleeding. These are the general causes of janaba, which is also referred to in the books of jurisprudence as hadath akbar. A full bath is required for a junub to receive purification or tahara, without which a man or woman is not allowed to touch or read the Qur'an, enter the mosque or offer the prayers. In the absence of water, however, one is allowed to resort to tayammum. Tayammum substitutes for both a full bath (ghusl) and ablution (wudu).
