Guidance for women who fear co-wives in Paradise

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question : When it is mentioned that a man may have more than one wife in Paradise, some women say that they will have co-wives even in Paradise, because they hate a co-wife so much. How should they be guided?

Answer : No, I guarantee, if Allah wills, that when they reach there, they will never, ever call for help. If one is guided and it is said that… and Allah the Exalted says in the Noble Qur'an:
And therein is whatever the souls desire and [what] delights the eyesوَفِيهَا مَا تَشْتَهِيهِ الْأَنفُسُ وَتَلَذُّ الْأَعْيُنُ
[Az-Zukhruf 43:71]
and He says:
And We will have removed whatever is within their breasts of resentmentوَنَزَعْنَا مَا فِي صُدُورِهِم مِّنْ غِلٍّ
[Al-A'raf 7:43]
even the resentment that exists in this world is removed; our brothers will be on opposite banks.
