Will a woman in Paradise marry the same husband she had in this world, or will she marry another husband?
A woman will marry in Paradise, for there is no unmarried person in Paradise. She will be with the husband she had in this world, provided she did not marry anyone else. However, if she married more than one husband and they all entered Paradise, the more preponderant opinion is that she will be with her last husband. The evidence for this is what Al-Bayhaqi narrated from Hudhayfah and what was authentically reported in the that Mu'awiyah proposed to Umm Ad-Dardaa, but she refused to marry him and said: "I heard the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, say: 'A woman will be with her last husband.'" It was also said that she would be with the one who had the best character, based on what was narrated from Umm Salamah, may Allah be pleased with her.
