Listen we are happy women and will never become sad


Are the women of this world superior or the Hûrs (of Paradise)?

Umme Salamah (Radiahallahu Anha) narrates that she said to the Prophet Muhammad (SallallahuAlayhi Wasallam)

“O Rasûlullah, are the women of this world superior or the hûrs (of Paradise)?”

He replied, “The women of this world will have superiority over the hûrs (houris) 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]
