Will women cover their faces in Paradise, and will they see and greet the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him)?
A woman will not cover her face in Paradise because Allah will bestow upon her extraordinary beauty for her husband, and her beauty will increase time after time. There is nothing in Paradise that necessitates covering the face due to an evil gaze or a diseased heart, nor is it a place of work and obligation. The woman in Paradise will be in her own domain, enjoying bliss, but she will not mix with men, as the wide-eyed houris are confined to their husbands. There is nothing to prevent the women of Paradise from seeing the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, for he is the father of the Ummah. The Quran and have promised his companionship in Paradise for all who obey him, and that whoever sees him in a dream will see him. It appears that the head covering worn by the women of Paradise is part of their adornment for their husbands.
