The answer

Most likely, there is no woman in Paradise who does not have a husband, and this is for several reasons, including:

1. The abundance of wives for men in Paradise, to the extent that one man will have more than one wife from humankind, as indicated by the : "And each one of them will have two wives, the marrow of whose shanks will be seen through the flesh." 2. It is mentioned in some narrations by Muslim: "And there is no single person (unmarried) in Paradise." The word "single" (عزب) includes both male and female, which implies that all inhabitants of Paradise are married. 3. Marriage is naturally desired by women, and Allah Almighty said concerning Paradise: "And therein is whatever the souls desire and [wherein] eyes find delight." A well-balanced woman desires to have a husband.
