- Allah has prepared for His believing slaves in Paradise that which no eye has seen, nor ear has heard and has never even crossed the minds of men, such that even the person who has the least blessings of Paradise will think he is the most blessed among them.
- Among the blessings that Allah has prepared for His slaves are Hoor al-'Ayn. They are chaste women created by Allah for the Believers.
Allah says:
كَذَٰلِكَ وَزَوَّجْنَٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍ
"So it will be; And We will marry them to fair women with large lovely eyes."
[44:54]
- مُتَّكِـِٔينَ عَلَىٰ سُرُرٍ مَّصْفُوفَةٍۖ وَزَوَّجْنَٰهُم بِحُورٍ عِينٍ
"They will be reclining on thrones lined up, and We will marry them to fair women with large, [beautiful] eyes."
[50:20]
Hoor al-'Ayn are extremely beautiful-
- Such that the marrow of their shins will be visible from beneath their garments.
Every man who enters Paradise will have 2 wives from Hoor al-'Ayn.
The Prophet ﷺ said:
"The first group will enter Paradise looking like the moon on the night when it is full; -
- And those who follow them will be like the brightest shining star in the sky. Their hearts will be one, and there will be no hatred or jealousy from among them. Each man will have 2 wives from among Hoor al-'Ayn, -
- the marrow of whose calves can be seen from beneath the bone and flesh."
[al-Bukhari; 3014]
- The Prophet ﷺ also said:
"....If a woman from among the people of Paradise were to look at the people of Earth, she would light up all that is in between them and fill it with fragrance. The veil on her head is better than this world and all that is in it."
[al-Bukhari; 2587]
- A man will have intimate relations in Paradise with his wives from among the Hoor al-'Ayn and his wives from among the people of this world, if they enter Paradise with him.
He will be given the strength of a 100 men to eat, drink, feep desire and have intimate relations-
- [al-Tirmidhi; 2459]
And Allah knows best.
- This however, should not discourage the believing women of this world, for they will be more beautiful and have a higher virtue and status to the Hoor al-'Ayn as they will enter Paradise because of their righteous deeds and their religious commitment to Allah ﷻ
