(Al Jinn) 72 : 8
وَأَنَّا لَمَسْنَا السَّمَاءَ فَوَجَدْنَاهَا مُلِئَتْ حَرَسًا شَدِيدًا وَشُهُبًا
And indeed we approached the sky, but now we found there assigned with mighty guards and flames.
That means before deputing Messenger, Jinn were approaching the sky in order to know the news of the supreme council. But in advance to the deputation of Messenger, Sprites found there mighty guards and meteors for not allowing to approach them to there. See explanation 37: 66-10; 38: 67-70; and 67: 5.
