Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) narrates: "The jinn used to ascend to the heaven and listen to the revelation. When they heard a word, they would add nine things of their own to it. The original word would be true, but what they added would be false. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was sent, they were prevented from their seats. This was mentioned to Iblis, and before that, stars had not been thrown at the devils. So Iblis said to them: This is because of something that has happened on the earth. So he sent out his troops, and they found the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) standing in prayer between two mountains. They came to him and informed him, and he said: This is the thing that has happened on the earth."
