The question

Will a husband have women from the Houris in Paradise whom he will have intercourse with and spend most of his time with, or will he also have intercourse with his wife from this world? And can he be content with only his wife? And will the wife have the same physical characteristics as the Houris?

The answer

In Paradise, there is whatever the souls desire and what delights the eyes. Its inhabitants find bliss beyond their imagination, and Allah has removed all ill-will from their hearts. So there is no need for worry, for in it is all delight, and fear should be of not entering it. The women of this world are superior to the houris due to their worship, and if a woman marries more than one man in this world, she chooses one of them in Paradise based on his good character towards her. However, this is weak.
