Topic: Women in Paradise

[Cem]

In reading the Qur'an I read that it says a lot about men in Paradise and the pleasures they will enjoy. What is the future of women in Paradise according to Islam? Thank you.

:sis1 MY SISTER,  DO NOT WORRY ABOUT OUR PARADISE FOR ALLAH MENTIONS GREAT REWARDS FOR THE PIOUS MUSLIMS, THE BELIEVING MUSLIMS. YOU SEE WHETEHER YOU ARE MALE OR FEMALE, IF YOU FIT THOSE QUALITIES, WITH THE FAVORS OF ALLAH OF COARSE ALLAH PROMISES A GREAT REWARD. PARADISE DOES NOT DISCRIMINATE BETWEEN MALE OF FEMALE ONLY BELIEVERS AND DISBELIEVERS. PARADISE IS THE ULTIMATE REWARD THAT WE SHOULD ALL  TRY TO RECEIVE INSHA ALLAH :apl1

Basimah,
Thank you for your kind reply. Do you have any verses from the Qur'an that tell about the place of women in paradise? It is one thing for  us to believe something but what does Allah say?

A Christian has asked me about this as well. A reply would be good especially from the Qur'an\Hadith.

There are so many Ayaat which mention that believing women would also be rewarded with Jannah.

If a person doubts that believing women get rewarded in the Akhirah, then that person is a Kafir.

Perhaps this thread should be moved to the Belief section? It would be interesting to learn what the scriptures say about this....

I think it's surprising that no one has presented anything from the scriptures about this. Isn't this an important question?

Scriptures, anyone?

There you go Moira. This is from the Qur'an, it means that whoever does good deeds, whether a man or a woman, and he/she was a Muslim at the same time, then that person would enter Paradise.

Reference, the Qur'an, Surah an-Nisa, Ayah 124.

The verses which clarify that it is males and females who go to Paradise are so numerous, it is clear that whoever says otherwise is not a Muslim.

What the scriptures say about that….

Allah Ta^ala said:

These verses show that the female, like the male, gets reward and enters paradise if they were Muslims and obeyed Allah.
