Can jinn see angels? May Allah reward you.
The jinn can see angels, as Ibn Kathir, Ibn al-Jawzi, and Ibn al-Qayyim mentioned that Iblis retreated in fear at Badr when he saw Gabriel and the angels, saying to Quraysh: "Indeed, I see what you do not see. Indeed, I fear Allah." This is mentioned in the interpretation of Allah's saying: "And [remember] when Satan made their deeds pleasing to them and said, 'No one can overcome you today from among the people, and indeed, I am your protector.' But when the two armies sighted each other, he turned on his heels and said, 'Indeed, I am disassociated from you. Indeed, I see what you do not see. Indeed, I fear Allah. And Allah is severe in punishment.'"
