Is it permissible for a Muslim to say, "We are, God willing, guaranteed the Houris, since we are Muslims"?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

There is no harm in saying: "There is no bachelor in Paradise," because whoever dies without associating anything with Allah will eventually enter Paradise and will not abide eternally in Hellfire. It has been authentically reported from the Prophet (ﷺ): "There is no bachelor in Paradise," just as he informed that the lowest in rank among the people of Paradise will enter his home, and two of the wide-eyed houris will enter upon him and say: "Praise be to Allah who has brought you to life for us and brought us to life for you." Furthermore, the wide-eyed houris defend their husbands in this world.
