Will the one who repents from adultery marry the houris, knowing that the adulterer will not marry them, according to the noble hadiths?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no authentic hadith indicating that an adulterer is deprived in this world of marrying the wide-eyed houris in the Hereafter. What has been reported in this regard pertains to alcohol and silk. Whoever drinks alcohol in this world and does not repent from it will be deprived of it in the Hereafter, and whoever wears silk in this world will not wear it in the Hereafter. Nevertheless, one who repents from a sin is like one who has no sin. Thus, whoever repents from adultery with sincere repentance and enters Paradise will marry the wide-eyed houris, by Allah Almighty's permission.
