I listened to a CD set and transcribed what the shaykh said. (I actually have the entire CD set transcribed <a href="http://ummibraheem.wordpress.com/transcripts-2/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. And you can buy this and similar CDs at Islamic bookstores). I'm just a learner like you :) I'm sorry to say that I don't have an answer to any of your questions :( The good news is that you can research it and share ;) About hoor al 'ayn though - I believe they are creatures in heaven. The believing woman who is in Jannah is better than hoor al 'ayn. wAllahu 'Alam. I don't like to say things without sharing proof, so inshaAllah when I have time, i'll look it up. wa ‘alaykum as salaam wa rahmatullah

Jazaki Allahu khair I have a question though. You put a lot of emphasis on married men and women. But what about single men and women? Can we get married in heaven? Can we even have children or is that in Dunya only? Furthermore, why can't a woman be with 2 men, since there's no haram in Jannah? Finally, Al Hoor Al Ayn, are they beings that live in heaven, or are *pure* women from Dunya going to become hoor al ayn? Thank you and jazaki Allahu khair. Fi aman Allah salam alaikum,

Agreed :> @snooty - I know you were not, same here. Jazakallah khair for the clarification.. may Allah Azzwajall reward you. I happen to stumble upon the other things you wrote, you've got a lot of informative posts, mashallah. I'll ping you again with Qs later, keep up the pace. Asalamalaikum. Yeh so true. Agreed :>

I was just trying to give a simple example to explain that just because one spouse is going to Jannah, it doesn't mean the other automatically has a free pass. Another thing to remember: many Prophets had evil wives. For example, Lut 'alayhis salaam.

I don't remember where I heard it, you might know though. but I think I am applying guesswork here.. wrong I know.. forget it.

So, I am just thinking why a believer's wife would end up in hell.. just think, why would a believer momin bro would marry a kafir or some modern follower-of-the-book woman.. I might be wrong though. Asalamalaikum.

I wish I had made more progress with the Lives of the Prophets series, but I had a second baby recently, alhamdulillah, and she's taking up most of my time.... I used the MSA search engines (in blogroll) and Qur'an Phoenetic searches to cite the ayahs and hadith. Imam Anwar doesn't cite them. Sometimes I find multiple ahaadith relating to what he's saying, but I try to use the one closest in wording to his. If not, I'll just type up what Imam Anwar says. May Allah accept from all of us. yes, I typed it all up… took quite awhile to do, as you can imagine!
