Will the fornicator be veiled from the Houris as a punishment on the Day of Resurrection, and will he be granted them if he repents with sincere repentance?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Adultery is one of the gravest sins, and Allah has threatened its perpetrator with severe torment, except for those who repent, believe, and do righteous deeds, for then Allah will exchange their evil deeds for good ones. There is no authentic that prohibits an adulterer from the Houris in Paradise if he enters it. The authentic proves that one who repents from a sin is like one who has no sin. This is further confirmed by the fact that a wine-drinker is deprived of it in the Hereafter unless he repents.
