The questioner: In Paradise, a man will have a number of houri with whom he consummates. So when does he consummate with his wife? Perhaps the wife may have married more than one man, and one after another they died. So with whom does she sit?The Shaykh: I say: When does he perform ghusl there if he has intercourse with a woman?The questioner: He does not have to perform ghusl.
The Shaykh: So he does not have to divide time, it is not obligatory for him to divide time between the wives.
The questioner: So when does he consummate with his wife?The Shaykh: Whenever he wishes.
The questioner: What about the houri?The Shaykh: Whenever he wishes.
The questioner: Will not his wife be jealous?The Shaykh: There is no one else there, man! But if she married two men and both were from the people of Paradise, then she is given the choice between them and chooses the one with the best character.
The questioner: And if she married a man and the man died, with whom does she sit, and she had not married anyone but one?The Shaykh: He will be her husband, and he will have other wives.
