Aqeedah Of Zakir Naik - Al-Hur Has No Gender!


Bismillah Alhamdulillah As-Salatu Wa Assalaamu Alaa Rasoolillah. Wa Ba'ad.


Assalaamuaalaikum wa rahmathullahi wa barakathuhu!


All Praise is due to Allah Sub'hanahu wa ta'ala, Who guided us to His Book, the Qur'aan, and to the Sunnah of His Messenger (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) and towards understanding the Qur'aan and the Sunnah as understood by the Salaf of this Ummah (Ridhwanullahi alaihim aj'maeen).


"So (it will be), and We shall marry them to Houris (female fair ones) with wide, lovely eyes.


(Surah Ad-Dukhan 44:54)


From Tafseer of Ibn Katheer(rahimahullah):


(So (it will be). And We shall marry them to Hur (fair females) with


wide lovely eyes,)This will be a gift in addition to the beautiful wives given to them.


Narrated Abu Hurairah (radhiallahu anhu): The Prophet(Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) said, "The first batch (of people) who will enter Paradise will be (glittering) like the moon on a full-moon night, and the batch next to them will be (glittering) like the most brilliant star in the sky. Their hearts will be as if the heart of a single man, for they will have neither enmity nor jealousy amongst themselves; everyone will have two wives from the Hur, (who will be so beautiful, pure and transparent that) the marrow of the bones of their legs will be seen through the bones and the flesh." [sahih Al -Bukhari 4/3254 page 476].


A question is posed to Zakir Naik concerning the Hur - which is a matter of Unseen, al-Ghayb.


Zakir Naik Responds...The Sister has asked a question, that when a man enters a paradise he will get a hur that is a beautiful maiden then what will a woman get when she enters paradise. The Quran, has mentioned the word Hur, in no less than four different places.Its mentioned in Surah Dukhan, Chapter 44 verse number 54, its mentioned in Surah Tur, chapter number 52 verse number 20, its mentioned in Surah Rahman chapter 55 verse number 72 aswell as Surah Wa'qiah Chapter 46 verse number 22 [Note:- Surah Wa'qiah is numbered 56 and not 46(Surah Ahqaf)! He is so unreliable on his numbers then what about his fatawas!]. And many of the translations especially the urdu translations, have translated the word Hur as beautiful maiden! If the word Hur means a beautiful maiden, then what will the woman get in the paradise. Actually the word Hur is a plural for ahwaar - which is applicable to the man and hawar - which is applicable to the woman and it signifies the characterestic of hawar which means big, white, beautiful eye and describes especially the whiteness of the eye. The similar thing is mentioned, azwajun muthahharin...many places in the Quran; in Surah Baqarah Chapter number 2 verse number 25 and Surah Nisa Chapter number 4 verse number 57 which says azwajun muthahharathun which means companion, friend. So the word Hur is rightly translated by Muhammad Asad as spouse and also by Abdullah Yousuf Alee as companion. So Hur actually means a companion or a spouse. It has no gender. Further a man will get a good lady with big beautiful eyes and for a woman she will get a good man with big beautiful eyes..Hope that answers the question.........[claps from general people - Narrated 'Abdullah bin Amr: I heard the Prophet (Sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) saying, "Allah will not deprive you of knowledge after he has given it to you, but it will be taken away through the death of religious learned men with their knowledge. Then there will remain ignorant people who, when consulted, will give verdicts according to their opinions whereby they will mislead others and will go astray."


[The Saheeh of Imam Bukharee (rahimahullah) English translation: Volume 9, Chapter 96, HOLDING FAST TO THE QUR'AN AND THE SUNNAH, page 252, Hadeeth # 7307]. ]


Fatwa Of Shaikh Muhammad Ibn Salih al-Uthaimeen (rahimahullah) On The Same Question


Q.58. It has been mentioned that men will have Al-Hur Al-'Ain[1] in Paradise. What will there be for women?


Response Of Shaikh Ibn 'Uthaimeen (rahimahullah) - Allah, the Most Blessed, the Most High says, regarding the blessings of Paradise:


" ..Therein you shall have (all) that your inner-selves desire, and therein you shall have (all) for which you ask for. An entertainment from


(Allâh), the Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful." (Surah Fussilat 41:31-32)


And He, the Most High says:


"..And therein all that inner-selves could desire, and all that eyes could delight in and you will abide therein forever." (Surah Az-Zukhruf 43:71)


And it is well known that marriage is one of the things which the souls desire most, and so it will be found in Paradise for the people of Paradise, whether they be men or women. So, Allah, the Most Blessed, the Most High will marry the woman in Paradise to the man who was her husband in the life of this world, as He, the Most Blessed, the Most High says:


"Our Lord! And make them enter the 'Adn (Eden) Paradise (everlasting Gardens) which you have promised them - and to the righteous among their fathers, their wives, and their offspring! Verily, You are the All Mighty, the All-Wise." (Surah Ghafir 40:8)


If she did not marry in the life of this world, then Allah, the Most High will marry her to one who pleases her in Paradise.
