Dear Yasir,
There are two mistakes and a misunderstanding. The first mistake is says that in Paradise a man will have seventy hoor âiyn. What is proven in the saheeh Sunnah is that the martyr (shaheed) will have seventy-two hoor âiyn. The least of the people of Paradise will have two wives, and some will have more than that.
It was narrated that al-Miqdaam ibn Maâdi Yakrib said The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said âThe martyr has six blessings with Allaah he will be forgiven from the first drop of blood shed; he will be shown his place in Paradise; he will be protected from the torment of the grave; he will be safe from the greater terror; a crown of dignity will be placed on his head, one ruby of which is better than this world and everything in it; he will be married to seventy-two wives from al-hoor al-âiyn; and he will intercede for seventy of his relatives.â
Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 1663; Ibn Maajah, 2799; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.
second mistake is the saying that al-hoor al-âiyn will serve the man. This is not correct, rather the ones who will serve the people of Paradise will be boys of everlasting youth. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning)
âAnd round about them will (serve) boys of everlasting youth. If you see them, you would think them scattered pearlsâ
[al-Insaan 7619]
Al-hoor al-âiyn will be wives of the men in Paradise, in addition to their wives from among the people of this world. Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning)
âSo (it will be). And We shall marry them to Hoor with wide lovely eyesâ
[al-Dukhaan 4454]
âThey will recline (with ease) on thrones arranged in ranks. And We shall marry them to Hoor with wide lovely eyesâ
[al-Toor 5220]
So, the word Hoor mean Pure and Clean, as well as Companion, you know the arabic word Hooari as companion. So for male there will be female Hoor and female there will be male Hoor. and Allah knows the best.
