(Description of the Garments of the Houris) And the veil of one of them, which is her head covering *** The world has no price for it, seventy garments upon her do not *** obstruct the view of the hair on the calves
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The Shaykh : Then he said: "And the veil of one of them" Now we move to the garments of the houris. Her veil means her head covering.
"Which is her head covering *** The world has no price for it" It means it is better than the entire world.
"Seventy garments upon her do not *** obstruct the view of the hair on the calves".
Allahu Akbar! It means: One of the houris has seventy garments upon her, and these garments do not prevent the view of the hair on the calves, meaning: one sees the hair on her calves from behind them.
Do not think that this vision is like our vision in this world. If we saw the hair on the calves, we might find it disgusting and loathsome, but in the Hereafter, no, but in the Hereafter it is different; a person sees it and takes pleasure in seeing this hair on the leg, and for this reason he said:
"But he sees it from behind all of this *** like a drink in a glass vessel"
If you placed a drink in a glass, you would see the water through it, but you would see it in the most beautiful way.
