The ruling on a man saying to his wife: “If the houri maidens saw you, they would be jealous of your beauty”

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
What is the ruling on a man saying to his wife, “If the houri maidens saw you, they would be jealous of you, for you are more beautiful”?

Answer:
This is invalid speech. It is flattery and lying. It is not permissible to say such a thing. Does that mean she is better than the houri maidens?
