In Islam you can't have more than four wives which you have to treat equally. The 72 Virgin thing is not Islamic. Here is the Quranic passages describing Paridise:
[7:43] We will remove all jealousy from their hearts. Rivers will flow beneath them, and they will say, "GOD be praised for guiding us. We could not possibly be guided, if it were not that GOD has guided us. The messengers of our Lord did bring the truth." They will be called: "This is your Paradise. You have inherited it, in return for your works."
[19:60] Only those who repent, believe, and lead a righteous life will enter Paradise, without the least injustice.
[19:61] The gardens of Eden await them, as promised by the Most Gracious for those who worship Him, even in privacy. Certainly, His promise must come to pass.
[19:62] They will not hear any nonsense therein; only peace. They receive their provisions therein, day and night.
[19:63] Such is Paradise; we grant it to those among our servants who are righteous.
***This is probably the Passage People wish to misrepresent**
[43:70] Enter Paradise, together with your wives, and rejoice.
[43:71] Offered to them will be golden trays and cups, and they will find everything the hearts desire and the eyes wish for. You live therein forever.
[43:72] Such is the Paradise that you inherit, in return for your works.
[43:73] You will have in it all kinds of fruits, from which you eat.
[43:74] Surely, the guilty will abide in the retribution of Gehenna forever.
[43:75] Never will the retribution be commuted for them; they will be confined therein.
[43:76] It is not us who wronged them; it is they who wronged their own souls.
[43:77] They will implore: "O Maalek (The Angel), let your Lord finish us off." He will say, "You are staying forever.

You do realize that is something that Bush lied about just to justify war, right?
The Quran says martyrs going to heaven will get “hur,” and the word was taken by early commentators to mean “virgins,” hence those 72 consorts. But in Aramaic, hur meant “white” and was commonly used to mean “white grapes.”

LOL, only if the women get to try;) LOL, I doubt, that's one of the reasons I would never want to convert to Islam, they even stricter on the woman's role than Christianity and Judaism is.

Muslim flaming isn't right. Asking to 'prove' it aounds like a dare. I know I couldn't. 1 had me in knots for our time together.
