A woman's marriage after her husband's death and her being his wife in the Hereafter

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah keep you safe. Also, at the end of this message, she asks: If a woman marries and then her husband dies, and she loved him and wants him to be her husband in the Hereafter, is it necessary that she not remarry in this world?

Answer:
She should not refrain from marrying after her husband; rather, she should marry because she needs to. As for matters of the Hereafter, they are up to Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). So she should not leave her marriage to remarry for the sake of being his wife in the Hereafter, because her marriage to him has ended; her marriage ended with his death, so she is not his wife. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah bless you
