What Will Women's Reward Be In Jannah When Men Are Blessed With Heavenly Maidens
« on: May 25, 2007, 01:22 PM »

I have read that in Jannah a man will be blessed with maidens (Hurs) and if his wife joins him in Jannah she will be Queen of all maidens. I am steadfast in my deen and have so much love for Allah (SWT) and our Rasool (SAW) and hope if my view is an error I will be forgiven. But how can this be fair? A man gets Hurs and a wife for his good deeds and a woman for hers gets to share her husband openly with other beings.

What about woman who do not marry or husbands are not pious what happens to them in jannah. What if a woman does not love her husband but lives a life of piety with him simply for Allah's pleasure, not her own. In jannah does she once again have to be assigned to her husband. I know that Allah is the most Just and I have tears in my eyes that I am even questioning this.

Please advise on the situation.  Jannah and the condition of Jannah vastly differs from the conditions of the Dunya (this world). It is incorrect to look at the prevailing conditions of the Dunya and then form an analogy of the Aakhira (hereafter).

Suffice to say that Allah Ta’ala mentions in the Qur’an, ‘You will have there (Aakhira) all that you could wish for, and you will have there everything you demand.’ Thus, her every desire and wish will be fulfilled and she will live in eternal happiness. If men will be rewarded with a certain number of chaste partners in Jannah, then what will women be rewarded with?While a man will get many Hurs (maidens) in jannah, a women would be made the queen of Jannah. Her beauty will far outshine the beauty of the hurs.

Umme Salamah R.A narrates that she said to Rasûlullah SAW "O Rasûlullah, are the women of this world superior or the hûrs?" He replied, "The women of this world will have superiority over the hûrs just as the outer lining of a garment has superiority over the inner lining." Umme Salamah R.A then asked, "O Rasûlullah, what is the reason for this?" He answered, "Because they performed salâh, fasted, and worshipped [Allah]. Allah will put light on their faces and silk on their bodies. [The human women] will be fair in complexion and will wear green clothing and yellow jewelry. Their incense-burners will be made of pearls and their combs will be of gold.

They will say, 'We are the women who will stay forever and we will never die. We are the women who will always remain in comfort and we will never undergo difficulty. We are the women who will stay and we will never leave. Listen, we are happy women and we will never become sad. Glad tidings to those men for whom we are and who are for us.'" (Tabrânî) Muhammed ibn Ka'b Al-Qurazi narrates from a person of the Ansâr (people of Madînah) that Rasûlullah SAW said, "I take the oath of that Being who sent me with the truth, you are not more acquainted with your wives and houses than the people of Jannat. A person of Jannat will come to 72 wives which Allah specially created in Jannat (hûrs) and 2 human wives.

The human wives will have virtue over the [hûrs] because they worshipped Allah in the world. (Targheeb Vol.4 Pg.534) This will be the high position of the women of the world in Jannah. If a woman had more than one husband, she will choose which one of them to stay with, and she will choose the one with the best character. As for those women who never married or their husband were mushriks, they will be allowed to marry whichever worldly man, they so wish, in Jannah. Thus every man in Jannah will have 2 wives from the world.

If we have full conviction in Allah's promise that he will fulfil our every desire in Jannah, then instead of worrying about what they will get in jannah, the women should concentrate their endeavours on pleasing Allah and thus getting to Jannah. As for pleasing us in Jannah, That is Allah responsibility, so he will do His and we should do ours. The greatest pleasure in Jannah for men and women will be the very pleasure of Allah. Everything else will be secondary. And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best.

What I don't get is, what happens to a woman who dies unmarried?I hear a married woman gets re-united with her husband but what if she was never married.

Again,do the 70/72 virgins remain eternally virgins?.After the first bout of sex with them,they obviously are no more virgins.Do they become "revirginised"?

I wish a knowledgable Muslim can provide me with answers to the above.Thanks

Aint you guys ever tired of this same ol recycled question? Its becoming quite boring. In some other threads, we accuse muslims of starting a 'fight' that calls for our stout defence; by this thread, are we not doing exactly what we accuse our muslim brothers of? The bible encourages us to follow peace with all men as much as lieth in us - don't know for what gain or purpose this thread is.
God bless you

For sure, they have self regenerating hymen, which means that they are ever virgins. You want try?

So, this disappearing act of the Muslimahs. . . does that simply mean that:

        (a)  they don't have any reward in janna; or,

        (b)  they don't know what rewards await them; or,

        (c)   they would rather not say because. . . ?!?

Lol. . . but nay, they won't go to hell - even though Muhammad said ALL muslims will enter hell fire (Qur'an 19:71). Most of them are smart enough to opt for the guaranteed reward in the home of righteousness promised to the saints when Jesus returns.   Smiley

I thought the number was supposed to be 4 wives according to the Qur'an?  Undecided

Anyway, so, in the whole ambit of this subject, what then is the reward of of women in jannah?
