Is there a Hadith that specifies the number of worldly women a man will marry in the Hereafter, and will a man marry more than one of his wives from this world if they enter Paradise, or is there a maximum limit for that?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

No text in the Sunnah specifies the number of wives a man from this world will have in Paradise. However, it is apparent that all of his righteous wives will be with him there, in accordance with the Almighty's saying: "Gardens of perpetual residence; they will enter them with whoever were righteous among their fathers, their spouses, and their offspring." As for what has been reported about a man having two wives in Paradise, it is understood to mean the minimum number for them. Paradise is a abode of bliss and peace. A Muslim should busy himself with what brings him closer to Allah and enters him into Paradise through faith and righteous deeds.
