Women and Maidens in Heaven according to Islam.  Will women have companions?


Does Paradise in Islam really have Homosexuality in it?

The sections of this article are: 

1-  Does Paradise in Islam really have Homosexuality in it? 
2-  Lesbians in Paradise?  Will a believing single woman have a male or female 
      spouse in Paradise?
3-  So what about the married (here on earth) believing men and women? 
4-  In Paradise everyone (men and women) will live happily. 
5-  How come women in Islam can't have multiple husbands if they are equal to men?
6-  Further additions and explanations from Muslims.

It has come to my attention that a group of the Christian "Answering Islam" team are 
trying to spread the false idea that the Islamic Paradise will have Lesbians in it.  
They first tried to show that when Allah Almighty uses the word "Righteous" for the 
Muslims, He is referring to both men and women, which is absolutely correct.  Let us 
look at the following Noble Verses:

"While he was standing in prayer in the chamber, the angels called unto him: 'God doth 
give thee glad tidings of Yahya, witnessing the truth of a Word from God, and (be 
besides) noble, chaste, and a prophet,- of the (goodly) company of the righteous.' 
(The Noble Quran, 3:39)" 

"He shall speak to the people in childhood and in maturity. And he shall be (of the 
company) of the righteous. (The Noble Quran, 3:46)" 

"They believe in God and the Last Day; they enjoin what is right, and forbid what is 
wrong; and they hasten (in emulation) in (all) good works: They are in the ranks of 
the righteous.  (The Noble Quran, 3:114)" 

"The life of this world is alluring to those who reject faith, and they scoff at those 
who believe. But the righteous will be above them on the Day of Resurrection; for God 
bestows His abundance without measure on whom He will.   (The Noble Quran, 2:212)" 

"Recite to them the truth of the story of the two sons of Adam. Behold! they each 
presented a sacrifice (to God): It was accepted from one, but not from the other. Said 
the latter: 'Be sure I will slay thee.' 'Surely,' said the former, "God doth accept of 
the sacrifice of those who are righteous.'  (The Noble Quran, 5:27)" 

"What is the life of this world but play and amusement? But best is the home in the 
hereafter, for those who are righteous. Will ye not then understand?  (The Noble 
Quran, 6:32)" 

"The day We shall gather the righteous to (God) Most Gracious, like a band presented 
before a king for honours,  (The Noble Quran, 19:85)"  

"Before this We wrote in the Psalms, after the Message (given to Moses): My servants 
the righteous, shall inherit the earth.  (The Noble Quran, 21:105)" 

The above Noble Verses are crystal clear about the word "righteous" referring to both 
men and women.  The Paradise and Great Reward that Allah Almighty promised and 
prepared for the "righteous" is indeed meant for both men and women.

 

Lesbians in Paradise?  Will a believing single woman have a male or female spouse in 
Paradise?

This is the section where the Christian "Answering Islam" team is clearly wrong in.  
They claim that since Allah Almighty called both men and women "righteous" in the 
Noble Verses above, and promised them to be joined together as "companions" as shown 
Noble Verses below, and didn't specify that men will be joined with women only, then 
He the Almighty meant that He will mix both genders together and allow them to have 
sexual relationships together as Gays and Lesbians.  This conclusion from that bogus 
team is plain dumb!  No woman will be a Lesbian, and no man will be a Gay in Paradise. 
 Let us look at the following Noble Verses that the Christian "Answering Islam" team 
had used:

"Round about them will serve, (devoted) to them. Youths (handsome) as Pearls 
well-guarded.  (The Noble Quran, 52:24)"  "...Youths (handsome)..." is written in 
Arabic as "gilma-nun llahum".  Gilma-nun literally means young males.  This Noble 
Verse is talking about young male servants whom Allah Almighty Created for the service 
of the Believers in Paradise. 

"Round about them will (serve) youths of perpetual (freshness),  (The Noble Quran, 
56:17)"  "...youths of..." is written in Arabic this time as "wil-daa-nun", which 
literally means young boys.   This Noble Verse is again talking about young male 
servants whom Allah Almighty Created for the service of the Believers in Paradise.

"And round about them will (serve) youths of perpetual (freshness): If thou seest 
them, thou wouldst think them scattered Pearls.  (The Noble Quran, 76:19)"  "youths 
of..." uses the same exact word in Noble Verse 56:17.

"And for such as had entertained the fear of standing before their Lord's (tribunal) 
and had restrained (their) soul from lower desires, Their abode will be the Garden. 
(The Noble Quran, 79:40-41)"  "...Their abode will be the Garden." is written in 
Arabic as "fa-inna al-jannata hiya al-ma'wa".   This is a correct translation.  
However, it doesn't show anywhere of same genders having sex with each others.  

"They will recline (with ease) on Thrones (of dignity) arranged in ranks; and We shall 
join them to Companions, with beautiful big and lustrous eyes.  (The Noble Quran, 
52:20)"  "We shall join them to Companions..." is written in Arabic as 
"wa-zawwaj-naahum bi-hoori-aayn".   The English translation is not quite accurate for 
this Noble Verse.  The Arabic word "wa-zawwaj-naahum" means to have them marry or get 
married.   "join them to Companions" is not really accurate, because it doesn't 
necessarily mean that they would get married if they were "Companions". 

Very Important Note: It is very important to know that the Arabic Noble Quran is 
referring to marriage in this Noble Verse, because marriage in Islam is NOT FOR THE 
SAME GENDERS.  Males can not marry males in Islam.  The same applies for females.   So 
when Allah Almighty used the word "Wa-Zawwaj-naahum", which is derived from the Arabic 
word "zawaaj (marriage)", He the Almighty clearly meant to enjoin males and females 
into marriage, and not to mix the males and females together and have them pick and 
choose their sexual mates, even if they were the same gender.  Let us look at Noble 
Verse 44:54 "Moreover, We shall Join them to Companions With beautiful, big, And 
lustrous eyes."   The same word for "...join them to Companions..." is used in Noble 
Verse 52:20.  

As for those whom the believers would marry, "...With beautiful, big, And lustrous 
eyes...", it is written in Arabic as "bi hoori-aayn".  This same word was used for 
Jesus' (peace be upon him) disciples (al-hawariyyun as plural......hur or huri or 
houri as singular), which both (al-hawariyyun) and (hoori-aayn) are both derived from 
the Arabic word "hoor" or "howr", or "hur". 

The following comment regarding Noble Verses 52:20 and 44:54 was taken from the foot 
notes of the Noble Quran that was translated by Minister (Sheikh) Abdullah Yusuf Ali; 
may Allah Almighty rest his soul and make Paradise his ultimate destiny: "Hur implies 
the following ideas: (1) purity; possibly the word Hawariyun, as applied to the first 
Disciples of Jesus, is connected with this root; (2) beauty, especially of eyes, where 
the intense white of the eyeballs stands out against the intense black of the pupil, 
thus giving the appearance of lustre, and intense feeling: as opposed to dullness or 
want of expression; and (3) truth and good will."

The word "hur" which Jesus' male disciples and the companions of believers in Paradise 
were given names that were derived from it quite clearly is referring to both males 
and females.  This means that the winners of Paradise will have their suitable gender 
of "hoori-aayn" depending on their gender.

So when Allah Almighty promised companions to the believers in Paradise, He quite 
clearly and obviously promised female companions for the males and male companions for 
the females.

Important Note: In Arabic, plurals and pronouns are derived from root words.  In the 
case of "Quran" for instance as in "Noble Quran", it is derived from the root word 
"Iqra" which means read. "Qara" means "past of read", "Quran" means "The read".  It 
could also mean "The Revealed" since the word "Qara" could also mean "Read to him/her" 
as in "Qara alaihi or Qara lahu", which means "Read to him". 

Another example to take is "Kitab" which means "Book".  It is derived from the root 
word "yaktub" which means "write". "kitaba" means "writing".  "kataba" means "wrote".  
So "kitab" means the "The written". 

In the case of the word "hawariyyun", which is the word Allah Almighty called Jesus' 
disciples peace be upon them, it is derived from the root word "hur".   So in the case 
of Jesus' disciples peace be upon them, Allah Almighty respected them by calling them 
"hawariyyun", which is plural of "huri", which is derived from the root word "hur" 
which means a very beautiful human-creation of Allah Almighty.  So the word "hur" or 
"huri" in the Noble Quran and Arabic can refer to either a male or female and NOT JUST 
FEMALES ALONE, thus making the hoori-aayn or huri-aayn of Paradise be either males 
huri-aayn or females huri-aayn, because "huri-aayn" is derived from the root word 
"hur". 

Another Important Note: In the section below, you will see proof that a woman can only 
have one husband.  A woman can't have multiple husbands.  Only the man can have 
multiple wives.

 

So what about the married (here on earth) believing men and women?

First of all, we have to understand that when Allah Almighty created us, He created us 
so we can live in pairs (husbands and wives) in harmony and peace for ever.  "And 
among His Signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves, that ye 
may dwell in tranquillity with them, and He has put love and mercy between your 
(hearts): verily in that are Signs for those who reflect.  (The Noble Quran, 30:21)"

The righteous husbands and wives would live in harmony, peace and love not only here 
on earth, but also in Paradise as well; "Enter ye the Garden, ye and your wives, in 
(beauty and) rejoicing.  (The Noble Quran, 43:70)" 

Allah Almighty from His very first Creation of Mankind meant to create us to live in 
pairs (husbands and wives) in peace and harmony; "We said: 'O Adam! dwell thou and thy 
wife in the Garden; and eat of the bountiful things therein as (where and when) ye 
will; but approach not this tree, or ye run into harm and transgression.'  (The Noble 
Quran, 2:35)"  This GOD Almighty's System will be implemented in Heaven for the 
believers as we saw in Noble Verse 43:70 above.

Let us look at what Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said regarding women in 
Paradise:

"This hadith has been narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira through another chain 
of transmitters that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: The (members of 
the) first group which would get into Paradise will have their faces as bright as 
stars in the sky. They would neither pass water, nor void excrement, nor will they 
suffer from catarrh, nor will they spit, and their combs would be made of gold, and 
their sweat will be musk, the fuel of their brazier will be aloes, and their wives 
will be large-eyed maidens and their form would be alike as one single person after 
the form of their father (Adam) sixty cubits tall.  (Translation of Sahih Muslim, Book 
40, The Book Pertaining to Paradise, Its Description, Its Bounties and Its Intimates 
(Kitab Al-Jannat wa Sifat Na'imiha wa Ahliha), Number 6795)"

Narrated Mu'adh ibn Jabal: "The Apostle of Allah (peace_be_upon_him) said: if anyone 
suppresses anger when he is in a position to give vent to it, Allah, the Exalted, will 
call him on the Day of Resurrection over the heads of all creatures, and ask him to 
choose any of the bright and large eyed maidens he wishes.  (Sunan Abu-Dawud, Book 41, 
General Behavior (Kitab Al-Adab), Number 4759)"

The above two Sayings (Hadiths) of our beloved Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him tell 
us that:

1- The believing wives of the believing husbands will be as beautiful as the maidens 
or houris in Heaven, and they will be large-eyed maidens for their husbands. 

2- The man can choose from any maidens he desires.

3- The single believing men and women who get admitted to Paradise can marry and live 
happily in Paradise since there will be "husbands" and "wives".   See Noble Verses 
52:20 and 44:54 and the comments/analysis about them above.

4- A man can have wives and maidens.  A woman can have only one husband.  The maidens 
for the man will be of equal age and are never touched or seen by any man or jinn.  
Let us look at the following Noble Verses from the Noble Quran:

"So taste ye (the fruits of your deeds); for no increase shall We grant you, except in 
Punishment.  Verily for the Righteous there will be a fulfilment of (the heart's) 
desires; Gardens enclosed, and grapevines; Companions of equal age;  (The Noble Quran, 
78:30-33)"

"...Of the Gardens will be Near....In them will be (Maidens), chaste, restraining 
their glances, whom no Man or Jinn before them has touched.   (The Noble Quran, 55:54, 
56)" 

Here we clearly see that Allah Almighty prepared maidens of equal age and who were 
never touched by Jinn or Man for the believing men. 

 

In Paradise everyone (men and women) will live happily:

Let us look at the following Noble Verses from the Noble Quran:

"Verily the Companions of the Garden shall that Day have joy in all that they do;  
(The Noble Quran, 36:55)" 

"(Here is) a Parable of the Garden which the righteous are promised: in it are rivers 
of water incorruptible; rivers of milk of which the taste never changes; rivers of 
wine, a joy to those who drink; and rivers of honey pure and clear. In it there are 
for them all kinds of fruits; and Grace from their Lord. (Can those in such Bliss) be 
compared to such as shall dwell for ever in the Fire, and be given, to drink, boiling 
water, so that it cuts up their bowels (to pieces)?  (The Noble Quran, 47:15)" 

"As to those who believe and work righteous deeds, they have, for their entertainment, 
the Gardens of Paradise,  (The Noble Quran, 18:107)" 

"And those who feared their Lord will be led to the Garden in crowds: until behold, 
they arrive there; its gates will be opened; and its keepers will say: 'Peace be upon 
you! well have ye done! enter ye here, to dwell therein.'  (The Noble Quran, 39:73)" 

"They will say: 'Praise be to God, Who has truly fulfilled His Promise to us, and has 
given us (this) land in heritage: We can dwell in the Garden as we will: how excellent 
a reward for those who work (righteousness)!'  (The Noble Quran, 39:74)" 

"But those who have faith and work righteousness, they are companions of the Garden: 
Therein shall they abide (For ever).  (The Noble Quran, 2:82)" 

"Be quick in the race for forgiveness from your Lord, and for a Garden whose width is 
that (of the whole) of the heavens and of the earth, prepared for the righteous,  (The 
Noble Quran, 3:133)" 

"Every soul shall have a taste of death: And only on the Day of Judgment shall you be 
paid your full recompense. Only he who is saved far from the Fire and admitted to the 
Garden will have attained the object (of Life): For the life of this world is but 
goods and chattels of deception.  (The Noble Quran, 3:185)" 

There are many more Noble Verses that elaborate on the Great Reward and Joy that the 
Believers (men and women) will have in Heaven, but I think the above Noble Verses are 
good enough to prove my point.

 

How come women in Islam can't have multiple husbands if they are equal to men? 

This is one of the things that I personally can't speak on behalf of GOD Almighty.   I 
can't ALWAYS tell you why or why not He chose to do certain things.   But throughout 
His Noble Revelations that started from the time of Adam all the way to Muhammad peace 
be upon them, polygany or polygamy (man having multiple women) is allowed (although it 
is highly discouraged to a point where it is almost prohibited in Islam to most men), 
where polyandry (woman having multiple husbands) had always been forbidden!  

Note: The word "polygamy" in the past used to mean men and women marrying multiple 
husbands and wives, meaning that the man would have multiple wives and each of his 
wives would have multiple husbands.   But today, the word had been modified to mean 
"man having multiple wives" only.  At least, this is what I meant it to mean in this 
article.  

As far as women being equal to men in Islam, well, please visit Women in Islam V.S. 
Christianity to see the many proofs that women are indeed equal to men in Islam and 
hold a very dear, respectful and honorable place in Islam, and how women on the other 
hand are nothing but "sex objects" who have no value in Christianity.  Islam came to 
liberate and free women and put them on the highest ranks of honor.  I provided quotes 
and proofs from both the Noble Quran, and the Bible's Old and New Testaments.

 

Further additions and explanations from Muslims: 

The following addition was sent to me by brother Rizan Bin Noordin; may Allah Almighty 
always be pleased with him.

Regarding the above-said article, I believe the answering-Islam team are mixing their 
views of Heaven with what they find here on Earth. In the Qur'an it is said: 

"And of every thing We have created pairs: That ye may receive instruction." - surah 
adh-Dhariyat 51:49. 

and

"And among His Signs is this, that He created for you mates from among yourselves, 
that ye may dwell in tranquillity with them, and He has put love and mercy between 
your (hearts): verily in that are Signs for those who reflect." - surah ar-Room 30:21. 

Thus it is clear that for men there are women and vic versa. The ideas of gayism or 
lesbianism are not from the commands of Allah, but from the whisperings of syaitaan. 

"And (remember) Lut: behold, he said to his people: "Ye do commit lewdness, such as no 
people in Creation (ever) committed before you. Do ye indeed approach men, and cut off 
the highway?- and practise wickedness (even) in your councils?" But his people gave no 
answer but this: they said: "Bring us the Wrath of Allah if thou tellest the truth. He 
said: "O my Lord! help Thou me against people who do mischief!" When Our Messengers 
came to Abraham with the good news, they said: "We are indeed going to destroy the 
people of this township: for truly they are (addicted to) crime."" - surah al-Ankabut 
29:28-31.

"Those of you who turned back on the day the two hosts Met,-it was Satan who caused 
them to fail, because of some (evil) they had done. But Allah Has blotted out (their 
fault): For Allah is Oft-Forgiving, Most Forbearing." - surah al-Imran 3:155. 

"From the mischief of the Whisperer (of Evil), who withdraws (after his whisper),- 
(The same) who whispers into the hearts of Mankind,-" - surah an-Nas 114:4-5. 

There cannot be any whisperings or evil in heaven. Thus the essential force that 
pushes men and women towards the revolting acts are removed. The Earthbound idea of 
having relations with servants, or with people of the same sex are no longer in the 
equation of human tendencies. Our minds will be free of such thought, thus the 
answering-Islam team's allegations that there will be the base desires in Heaven is 
absurd. It is clearly revealed in surah al-Jinn. 

"'And we[the jinn] pried into the secrets of heaven; but we found it filled with stern 
guards and flaming fire." - surah al-Jinn 72:8. 

So I believe the initial argument from the answering-Islam team is already wrong. They 
are arguing semantics while throwing out the essential message of the whole Qur'an. 

"O Messenger! let not those grieve thee, who race each other into unbelief: (whether 
it be) among those who say "We believe" with their lips but whose hearts have no 
faith; or it be among the Jews,- men who will listen to any lie,- will listen even to 
others who have never so much as come to thee. They change the words from their 
(right) times and places: they say, "If ye are given this, take it, but if not, 
beware!" If any one's trial is intended by Allah, thou hast no authority in the least 
for him against Allah. For such - it is not Allah's will to purify their hearts. For 
them there is disgrace in this world, and in the Hereafter a heavy punishment." - 
surah al-Maaidah 5:41. 

That is all from me brother Osama. I hope however little my efforts, I have helped in 
your cause. Please carry on your noble efforts in the spirit of Islam. I hope Allah 
protect us from speaking untruth and shelter us from the lies of those with an agenda 
against His teachings, InsyaAllah. 

Allah Ma'ak.
