Question:
Women are the majority of the people of the Fire; are they the minority in Paradise, or are they the majority there as well?
Answer:
When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was asked, he said:Sahih Ibn Hibban 13:112, and whoever among them is truthful, she has Paradise. This is like what He (Exalted and Majestic is He) said: [Al-Ahzab: 35], and He the Exalted said: [At-Tawbah 9:71] And Allah has promised the believing men and the believing women gardens under which rivers flow [Al-Tawbah: 71-72]. These and those: every believer, male or female, is promised Paradise, and every disbeliever, male or female, is promised the Fire. But because disbelief toward the husband, cursing, and not standing firm on the truth are common in the deeds of women, the majority of them end up in the Fire – we ask Allah for safety.
