Arabic Folklore The Termite of Prophet Sulayman (Solomon) & The Jinn Race (Demon)
Then when We decreed death for him, nothing informed them (Jinn) of his death except a termite, which kept gnawing away at his stick, so when he fell, the Jinn saw that if they had known the Ghayb (unseen), they would not have stayed in the torment.

Arabic Folklore The Termite of Prophet Sulayman (Solomon) & The Jinn Race (Demon)
{Then when We decreed death for him [Sulayman (Solomon)], nothing informed them (Jinn) of his death except a termite, which kept (slowly) gnawing away at his stick, so when he fell down, the Jinn saw clearly that if they had known the Ghayb (unseen), they would not have stayed in the humiliating torment.} (Saba': 14)Let me tell you what happened. While we were just tiny ants that live in our houses, we used to hear many different stories about the relationships between Jinn and people. In spite of our tiny size we realized that these relationships were really a weapon for the Jinn (demon). Allah SWT (God) had subjected the Jinn Race to Sulayman (Solomon) in order to serve him. They (the Jinn) could dive deep into the seas ...They could build whatever Sulayman wanted like castles and houses within days ...They could pave roads in just hours. This subjection happened only in the time of Prophet Solomon (Sulayman) to go against an old law that had separated the Jinn (demon) from the humans.This subjection of the Jinn was one of Sulayman's miracles that Allah granted him. And people witnessed many supernatural things that the Jinn could do while human beings could not. Therefore, people's belief in Allah was supposed to increase. Moreover, their realization of Allah's Infinite Power was supposed also to increase. But what happened was that myths and illusions started to spread ...People started to believe in the ability of Jinn without attributing the miracle to Allah. Ignorant people went so far as to say that the Jinn race (Demon) know the Ghayb (Unseen).

Grady Hendrix’s Creepy Vibes
When horror writer Grady Hendrix and his wife, Amanda, moved into their new apartment in Manhattan last year, Hendrix was excited for the extra space and city views—until the day, this past March, in a twist worthy of one of his novels, he discovered a termite nest in the living room floor. Jessica Wade, his editor, describes him as “a writer with the soul of a showman” whose dynamic book events (he dresses up and sings!) draw lines out the door. All but one of his books have been optioned, including The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires, currently in development at HBO.
