Does Allah provide the believer in Paradise with Houris possessing qualities and attributes he desired in this world, such as stoutness or a specific appearance? And has this been established in the Quran or Sunnah?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The houris possess a beauty and comeliness beyond imagination, as described by the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, and the head-covering of one of them is better than the world and all that it contains. Allah will grant the believer in Paradise everything his soul desires, and even more than what no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no human heart has ever conceived. So, everything a believer desires in terms of characteristics for the women of Paradise, he will find, and more.
