It is not true that one has absolutely no control over matters of the heart, such as love and hate. Fleeting thoughts are not punishable, but they must be repelled and not indulged. However, if these thoughts settle in the heart to become a conviction, then the person will be held accountable for them. It is not permissible for a Muslim to dislike anything in Paradise, such as the Houris, and these thoughts should be repelled, focusing instead on what benefits one in matters of religion and worldly life.
