What are the men of Paradise called, if the women of Paradise are called Houris?
The Quran and do not name the women of this world who enter Paradise as "Houris" (Hoor al-Ain). Houris are creations Allah brought into existence; they were not born and are not descendants of Adam. The women of this world, the daughters of Adam, when they enter Paradise, are not called Houris. Some scholars have said that a woman from among the daughters of Adam, if she enters Paradise, will be superior to the Houris because of her deeds in this world, as narrated by Ibn al-Mubarak from Ibn An'am from Hibban bin Abi Jabalah. It has also been reported that the daughters of Adam will be seventy thousand times superior to the Houris. There is no specific name mentioned for the men of Paradise; they are referred to as "men," and it is stated that a man from the people of Paradise will have two wives from among the Houris.
