Hur (Women of paradise)

It is mentioned in verse (44:54): "And We shall wed them with hur with wide, lovely eyes." Here in the example of the beauty of the physical eyes there is the praise of the inner or spiritual eye. Therefore, it is certain that they are the hur of the rank of intellect which have already been mentioned. Question: People are right to ask: Is there a system of procreation in paradise? If yes, how? The answer is that paradise is the place where every bounty is available and since the happiness of children is a great bounty, then why should it not be there? But it is true that it is the world of command, therefore everything appears instantly from the word "Be".

Q57 Is it true that the intellectual and real spouse of the Perfect Man is not created before reaching the place of Intellect and the sacred Sanctuary?

A57 Yes, it is true, because the purpose of “he may rest in her” is the marriage of knowledge. If you want to know about the marriage of the kamils (Perfect Men) and the muttaqin (those who do taqwa), see verse (44:54): “So will it be, and We will marry them with houris with big and beautiful eyes.”
