Fathwa, - Misconceptions in Islam

Question
I don't mean to sound like a disbeliever, but scholars always speak of
the reward for men in heaven how they will have "Hour al-'Een". How
can a man can keep more than one wife? What's in it for women? I
believe Allah to be a Just and Fair God. I just want to understand. If
there are any books you recommend I would be grateful. I need to learn
more because I feel that the way Islam is preached nowadays is
undeserving to God. There are so many misconceptions and preachings
that make you want to turn away from Islam. Allah is a kind God,
Tender and Gentle with His worshippers. Where is all this meanness and
bad presentations coming from?
Answer
Praise be to Allah, the Lord of the World; and may His blessings and
peace be upon our Prophet Muhammad and upon all his Family and
Companions.
One has to believe that Allah, The Great and Almighty, is Just,
Generous Affectionate, Wise and All-Knowing. He does what He likes and
chooses; no one has the right to review or rebut His Orders. So, He,
in His Wisdom, has chosen that a man can marry four women, not the
opposite. Here, only those who have faith and insight can recognize
the wisdom behind such a ruling.
He has decreed that a believer can take delight in a number of al-Hour
al-'Een )dark-eyed damsels(, while a believing woman only loves her
husband and wants nobody but him.
Allah Says )interpretation of meaning(:}And with them will be chaste
females, restraining their glances )desiring none except their
husbands(, with wide and beautiful eyes.{]37:48[.
You have to know that there are no unmarried people in Paradise. A
woman who was spinster or her husband was not from the people of
Paradise will be given a husband and rewarded with Divine blessings
and bliss, that no a human being can imagine.
In addition, know that there is no similarity between affairs of this
life and those of the Hereafter.
In other words, a woman may wish to have more than one husband in this
world, but she will not have such a desire in the Hereafter, i.e. in
the Paradise, since her delight lies in having only one husband,
without wishing a substitute.
This, in fact, shows completeness of the Divine wisdom, His ability
and kindness.
Thus, a Muslim is advised to seek from this Present Life what leads
him/her to the Paradise. In simple words, he/she does not have to be
engaged with such matters )discussed in this Fatwa( that cannot be
changed.
If Allah honors him/her with entering the Paradise, he/she will see
what no eye has ever seen, hear what no ear has ever heard and what no
one can imagine.
We ask Allah to make us and you from the people of His Paradise and favor.
Allah knows best.
