In islam, it's said that a wife will be with her last husband from earth in paradise (most popular belief), but what about the previous husband if he was good to his wife and sincerely prayed and wanted to be with his wife in the hereafter? Will Allah grant his wish in paradise if he wishes for exclusivity with his wife ? Whether it be by means of alternate reality or whatever possibilities? Or will he get a different spouse? And if yes to a different spouse, then isn't paradise very limited to what we want as Allah has promised believers will get whatever they wish for?
I am aware he might remove haram wishes/desires, but asking to be with my spouse eternally is not a haram wish and he promises that spouses will be together or people will be together with their loved ones.
If one says, "oh you won't feel negativity if you see your wife with her last husband, there won't be any rivalry or enmity, etc", but that's brainwashing in this case and it's not my genuine wish to watch my wife be with someone else, rather Allah is enforcing everything according to his wishes. I pray to Allah to forgive me if i had said anything blasphemous or bad. That is not my intention.
Personally, i have always wanted a righteous wife and a marriage that will last eternally in case i make it to Jannah. In this life and the hereafter. If despite knowing this, Allah brainwashes me, that according to my limited knowledge, is not fair. I don't personally want to invest in a marriage which has a possibility for me to love someone deeply and pray to be together in the hereafter but due to my untimely passing, she has to remarry and belong to someone else eternally. It is very disturbing to me to even think about.
I would be grateful if i can get a proper answer for this. Thank you!
