Hoor has no Specific Gender
Question: According to the Quran when a man enters paradise, he will get hoor, i.e. beautiful maidens. What will a woman have when she enters paradise?
Answer:
1. Hoor mentioned in the Quran
The word hoor occurs in the Qur’an in no less than four different places:
In Surah Dukhan chapter 44, verse 54
“Moreover, We shall join them to companions With beautiful, big and lustrous eyes.” [Al-Quran 44:54]
In Surah Al-Tur chapter 52 verse 20
“...And We shall join them to companions, with beautiful, big and lustrous eyes.” [Al-Quran 52:20]
In Surah Rahman chapter 55 verse 72
“Companions restrained (as to their glances), in goodly pavilions.” [Al-Quran 55:72]
In Surah Al-Waqiah chapter 56 verse 22
“And (there will be) companions with beautiful, big and lustrous eyes.” [Al-Quran 56:22]
2. Hoor Translated as Beautiful Maidens
Many translators of the Quran have translated the word hoor as ‘beautiful maidens’ especially in the Urdu translations. If hoor means ‘beautiful maidens’ or girls, then they are meant only for the men. Hence, what will the women get if they enter Paradise?
3. Meaning of Hoor
The word hoor is actually the plural of ahwar (applicable to man) and of haura (applicable to woman) and signifies a person having eyes characterized by hauar a special quality bestowed upon a good soul, male or female in paradise and it denotes the intense whiteness of the white part of the spiritual eye.
The Quran describes in several other verses that in paradise you will have azwaj which mean a pair or spouse or companion which means you will have spouses or companions pure and holy (mutaharratun means pure, holy).
“But give glad tidings to those who believe and work righteousness, that their portion is gardens, beneath which rivers flow. Every time they are fed with fruit there from, they say: “Why, this is what we were fed with before”, for they are given things in similitude; and they have therein companions pure (and holy); and they abide therein (forever)”. [Al-Quran 2:25]
“But those who believe and do deeds of righteousness, We shall soon admit to Gardens, with rivers flowing beneath - their eternal home; therein shall they have companions pure and holy: we shall admit them to shades, cool and ever deepening”. [Al-Quran 4:57]
Therefore the word hoor has no specific gender. Mohammad Asad has translated the word hoor as spouse and Abdullah Yusuf Ali as companion. Therefore according to some scholars a man in paradise will have a hoor that is a beautiful maiden with beautiful big and lustrous eyes and a woman in paradise will get a man with beautiful big and lustrous eyes.
4. Women will get something exceptional in Paradise
Many scholars say that in context, the word hoor used in the Quran refers only to ladies since gents are addressed. A reply that would be accepted by all types of people would rather be the answer given in the Hadith when a similar question was posed that if a man gets a hoor, a beautiful Maiden in Paradise, then what will the women get? The reply was that the women will get that which the heart has not desired for, the ear hasn’t heard off and the eye hasn’t seen, indicating that even the women will get something exceptional in Paradise.

For one element in porn they each and every so often reuse pictures. I advise in case you're only watching a piston go up and down then you definately could desire to tape it for 5 minutes and then play it 9 situations in a row. So i think of they in all probability get greater time interior the modifying room. i'm not sure of path, however the could desire to try this. And with the cameras rolling i could desire to ensure it taking longer for the guy to return. i think of he might sense awkward and it could desire to reason at the back of schedule ejaculation. and you'd be able to coach your self to not come by using questioning approximately different issues so which you don't get so became on. In real existence you would be so into the 2nd it basically lasts 5-10 minutes. yet those porn men could be visualizing ineffective rats or something and then a nil.5 hour could desire to conflict by using like that. additionally, for some positions/angles the place the penis is extremely not on digicam they could be employing a **** ring which prevents ejaculation. yet yeah, men in porn honestly seem to final longer than i might in in spite of subject they are portraying. undergo in concepts it somewhat is their job, so not basically are they properly experienced, they get laid plenty too. After awhile of scripted intercourse it in all probability purely does not excite them the way it would if it have been a actual sexual bump into off digicam.

Men and women are equal in the eyes of God, so their reward would be absolutely the same.
BTW, maids of heaven (often translated as "virgins") have nothing to do with sexuality. These are heavenly, spiritual, non-physical beings.

That is also mentioned and she will have what ever she desires and more (what non ever saw, heard of, or thought possible). AND the most important reward is to see and hear Allah by special means that He will provide us with and this is the ultimate pleasure and happiness that any human can get.

For all those years of covering up, they get to walk around naked, finally, without the constant threat of being "raped" for their incredible beauty, I suppose?
