"72 Virgins"

The concept of 72 virgins in Islam refers to an aspect of paradise. In
a collection by Imam at-Tirmidhi in his "Sunan" (Volume IV, Chapters
on "The Features of Heaven as described by the Messenger of Allah",
chapter 21: "About the Smallest Reward for the People of Heaven",
hadith 2687) and also quoted by Ibn Kathir in his Tafsir (Qur'anic
Commentary) of Surah Qur'an 55:72, it is stated that:

    "It was mentioned by Daraj Ibn Abi Hatim, that Abu al-Haytham
'Adullah Ibn Wahb narrated from Abu Sa'id al-Khudhri, who heard the
Prophet Muhammad saying, 'The smallest reward for the people of Heaven
is an abode where there are eighty thousand servants and seventy two
houri, over which stands a dome decorated with pearls, aquamarine and
ruby, as wide as the distance from al-Jabiyyah to San'a.[48]

[edit] Popularisation

A CBS news report in 2001 contained a translation of a Hamas activist
which specifically mentioned the term "72 virgins". Since then, the
term has been widely used in the western world by critics of Islam.

[edit] Interpretations

Margaret Nydell states that mainstream Muslims regard this belief
about 72 virgins in the same way that mainstream Christians regard the
belief that after death they will be issued with wings and a harp, and
walk on clouds.[49]

One radical new interpretation of the relevant passages of the Qur'an,
widely rejected as revisionist scholarship by Muslim scholars, is The
Syro-Aramaic Reading Of The Qur'an written by Christoph Luxenberg. In
respect of this particular point, Luxenberg argues that the relevant
passage actually translates to a portrayal of paradise as a lush
garden with pooling water and trees with rare fruit, including white
raisins (considered to be delicacies at the time that the Qur'an was
written), not virgin maidens.[50][51]

[edit] Notable uses of the term

While being disarmed by the Israeli troops in 2004, would-be suicide
bomber Hussam Abdo, described by Israeli media as a "mentally
challenged" boy, said: "Blowing myself up is the only chance I've got
to have sex with 72 virgins in the Garden of Eden."[52]

[edit] Criticism

Regarding the above statement, Hafiz Salahuddin Yusuf has said: "The
narration, which claims that everyone would have seventy-two wives has
a weak chain of narrators" .[20]
