Sex in Paradise For A Dead Muslim
Sex in Paradise For A Dead Muslim
Sex in Paradise For A Dead Muslim

When the popular CBS documentary program '60 Minutes' aired the interview with a Palestinian
terrorist who claimed that those who blow themselves killing many Israelis will go to Paradise
and receive 70 houris, Muslims were outraged and as Joyse M. David on August 23, 2001
reported they claimed that the story of 70 Houris promised to those who fight and die in the
name of Allah for killing the infidels is ‘fabricated’.
Davis writes: “The documentary by reporter Bob Simon examined the militant Islamic
organization Hamas, which has claimed responsibility for dozens of suicide bombings against
Israel. Muslim leaders charge that the report presented false stereotypes of Muslims and defamed
their religion.”
She quotes the Muslims “scholar” Dr. Maher Hathout a member if the Islamic Center of
Southern California, who said, "There is nothing in the Koran or in Islamic teachings about 70
virgins or sex in paradise. This is ridiculous, and any true Muslim knows that,".
I agree with Dr. Hathout that this is ridiculous, but I disagree with him when he says that there is
nothing in the Quran or in Islamic teachings about the 70 virgins or sex in Paradise. If Dr.
Hathout is truly an Islamic scholar he should have at least read the Quran. There are several
references to the houris in Quran with details. Because I know Muslims always say that their
critics quote “out of the context” I am going to quote the verses of the Quran speaking of the
houris with the preceding and succeeding verses.
47 Seize him, then drag him down into the middle of the hell;
48 Then pour above his head of the torment of the boiling water:
After giving this dreadful description of the hell and the tortures preferred by Allah the Prophet
promises lots of goodies to those who became Muslims.
53 They shall wear of fine and thick silk, (sitting) face to face;
54 Thus (shall it be), and We will wed them with Houris pure, beautiful ones.
17 Surely those who guard (against evil) shall be in gardens and bliss
18 Rejoicing because of what their Lord gave them, and their Lord saved them from the
punishment of the burning fire.
20 Reclining on thrones set in lines, and We will unite them to large-eyed beautiful
ones.
21 And (as for) those who believe and their offspring follow them in faith, We will unite
with them their offspring and We will not diminish to them aught of their work; every
man is responsible for what he shall have wrought.
22 And We will aid them with fruit and flesh such as they desire.
23 They shall pass therein from one to another a cup wherein there shall be nothing vain
nor any sin.
Amazingly this paradise promised by the holy prophet satisfies even the pedophiles.
24 And round them shall go boys of theirs as if they were hidden pearls.
And round about them shall go youths never altering in age; when you see them you
will think them to be scattered pearls.
Again in Surah 56 the Prophet gives the glad tidings of the paradise to his followers and says:
75 Blessed be the name of your Lord, the Lord of Glory and Honor!
In Surah 56 , there is promise of houris as well as youths that never age for the gratification of
Muslim men.
15 On thrones decorated,
19 They shall not be affected with headache thereby, nor shall they get exhausted,
I believe this should suffice to prove that not only Allah promises "virgin houris" to the righteous
Muslims but also “never-aging boys” as white as pearls.
There are also several hadith that confirm sex in paradise. Hadith are the sayings of the Prophet.
The following are few of them
Allah's Apostle said, "In Paradise there is a pavilion made of a single hollow pearl sixty
miles wide, in each corner of which there are wives who will not see those in the other
corners; and the believers will visit and enjoy them. And there are two gardens, the
utensils and contents of which are made of silver; and two other gardens, the utensils and
contents of which are made of so-and-so (i.e. gold) and nothing will prevent the people
staying in the Garden of Eden from seeing their Lord except the curtain of Majesty over
His Face."
The modern Muslim apologists try to present Islam as a religion of peace yet it is not hard to find
many hadiths that call for war and promise great rewards in the other world and in this one to the
Mujahid who takes the arm and fights for Allah.
Bukhari V. 4, B 52, N 46
I heard Allah's Apostle saying, "The example of a Mujahid in Allah's Cause-- and Allah knows
better who really strives in His Cause----is like a person who fasts and prays continuously. Allah
guarantees that He will admit the Mujahid in His Cause into Paradise if he is killed, otherwise He
will return him to his home safely with rewards and war booty."
Bukhari V. 4, B 52, N 48
The Prophet said, ... "Paradise has one-hundred grades which Allah has reserved for the
Mujahidin who fight in His Cause,
Bukhari V. 4, B 52, N 72
The Prophet said, "Nobody who enters Paradise likes to go back to the world even if he got
everything on the earth, except a Mujahid who wishes to return to the world so that he may be
martyred ten times because of the dignity he receives (from Allah)."
Narrated Al-Mughira bin Shu'ba: Our Prophet told us about the message of our Lord that
"Whoever amongst us is killed will go to Paradise." Umar asked the Prophet, "Is it not true that
our men who are killed will go to Paradise and their's (i.e. those of the Pagan's) will go to
the (Hell) fire?" The Prophet said, "Yes."
The Hadiths like these abound and there are also many verses of Quran the glorify Jihad (holy
wars). As it is clear these wars were not defensive but were offensive wars. See how Muhammad
prepared his followers to attack the lands that had nothing to do with Islam.
Bukhari V. 4, B 52, N 48
Therefore it is safe to say that the essence of Islam is expressed in the following hadith.
Bukhari V. 4, B 52, N 73
Allah's Apostle said, "Know that Paradise is under the shades of swords
