It's seventy-two virgins. How they ever came up with that number is a good topic for a question.
I heard on the radio last week or so that al Quaeda has lost 4000-some militants to the bullets of our superior soldiers. If each one gets 72 vegans, that's 288,000 vegans that have to be in Paradise. If they are still vegans when they arrive, the must be butt-ugly, huh? Kinda makes you want to stay alive as long as you can, eh?

Islam, just like Christianity and all religions in the world, promises good people to go to paradise. and it is mentioned in the Quraan, also like other religions, the description of paradise and the description of the hell.
one of the things that the believers enjoy in paradise is the virgins which, by the way, are not counted and there is no mention of the number 40 anywhere.
as an answer to your question, every man on earth sees the moments that he dreamed about his whole life when he is about to die. so whether it is heaven or earth he will see the conclusion of his deeds and whole life.
Muslims do not practice Islam only for the sake of those virgins. mainly there is heaven and the obedience of god who created them (also just like any other religion in the world).
maybe if you try to consider or believe in a religion you will be able to understand.

To Ferosia
Kids who die before before being an adult, are going to be birds in heaven, or something like that. There is nothing about that in Quran, but that is what Muslim Sheikhs think.
Anyway, A muslim gets around 70 virgins if he was a great muslim during his life. Otherwise no. You can't see them before being already in heaven.
Also Muslim ladis will get their rewards, Jewels and everlasting beauty. In addition being the queen over 70 virigns.
Goodluck everyone.

If Heaven has no physical bodies in it, then where did Adam's rib come from which GOD Almighty used for creating Eve? And what form were Adam and his "wife" Eve in? Did they have physical bodies?
If you're answer is yes they had physical bodies, then my mission is accomplished in this article. And to those who have bashing-mouths in regards to Islam promising men (who will live like kings) 70 Houris in Heaven, along with other pleasures and Mansions, I think this article will shut their mouths up once and for all, insha'Allah (if Allah Almighty is Willing).
And by the way, the 70 Houris are 70 servants! They may not necessarily all be for 'sex'. But whether they are or not, that's completely irrelevant, because sex did exist Heaven!
Also, Out of the Entire Noble Quran, only five Noble Verses talked about the Houris, and in only referencing them (only mentioning them by the name).
So don't think that Islam brags about sex and lust in the Noble Quran!
It is only the gospel of porn bible that brags about women's privates and calls their vaginas and breasts taste like "wine".

But they only get near them. Actually it's not 40 virgins, it's a 40-something virgin named Mildred with a wicked right hook and a Harley tattoo on her bicep.

Well seeing as they are promised those UPON DEATH, and not just NEAR DEATH; I would assume not. You don't get the girls without taking the leap.

My question is, where do babies and children go when they die? What good is a room full of virgins to a 5 year old?
