"They shall recline on jewelled couches face to face, and there shall wait on them immortal youths with bowls and ewers and a cup of purest wine (that will neither pain their heads nor take away their reason); with fruits of their own choice and flesh of fowls that they relish. And theirs shall be the dark-eyed houris, chaste as hidden pearls: a guerdon for their deeds... We created the houris and made them virgins, loving companions for those on the right hand..."

O ye people! Fear your Lord who created you from a single soul and of its kind created its mate, and from them twain spread many men and women; and fear Allah, in Whose name you appeal to one another, and fear him particularly respecting ties of kinship. Verily, Allah watches over you.
And guard yourselves against the day when no soul shall serve as a substitute for another soul at all, nor shall intercession be accepted for it, nor shall ransom be taken from it, nor shall they be helped
And guard yourselves against the day when you shall be made to return to Allah; then shall every soul be paid in full what it has earned; and they shall not be wronged.

I think anyone who makes Paradise deserves what their heart's
desire. Women in Paradise get what there hearts desire too, there will be no jealousy or anyone feeling left out in Paradise.You translation has been messed with just a little.
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."
____________________________________________________
[43:70] Enter Paradise, together with your spouses, 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.
____________________________________________________
[40:40] Whoever commits a sin is requited for just that, and whoever works righteousness - male or female - while believing, these will enter Paradise wherein they receive provisions without any limits.
Isn't that a great thing to strive for?

Where are you quoting this? Did you just made it up?
You know I won't believe it if you don't quote it. If it's from the Quran, then I'll check on my translation of the Quran and see if your choices of words in translating its Arabic words are correct or not.

Why is your question leading toward Muslim women?
I want you, and every one else to know that the virgins mentioned in this Ayah doesn't only mean virgin women. It also means men.
The 'houris' mentioned in the Qur'an is the Arabic word for 'beautiful black eyes', so it does not mean women only.
This reward is for every person (Man or Women) who accomplishes good deeds.
Peace.

Is that the virgins waiting for them in heaven. At least they are geting everyone to read the Quaran. Never before had I heard of it now everyone is reading it. Those women believe that religion is the true faith and so of course they believe everything it teaches.

the Hourin Ein ( what you call virgins ) are angel like creatures and NOT for sex. only people with dirty minds who don't understand the scripture will assume they will have sex with angels. (another LIE by the western media). they are merely servants for the people of heaven. people of heaven will get to join their spouses. so if you and your spouse make it to heaven, you'll enjoy each other's company. NOT have sex with angels.

Ummm...I don't know about that one, but I DO know that from the time you are born (Muslims) you are shown how to strap a bomb to yourself a yell out incoherant BS a kala wa da na bala and blow yourself and anyone in the blast radius up. Hmmm...oh and I also know that muslim women are ugly. Hence the half bag they use to cover their faces. Oh...oh...and I know that they are all really pissed off because they have that constant feeling of sand in the *** crack from riding their camels around in the desert all day while practicing making explosives. Some call it multitasking I call it muslitasking. :)
