Is it true that even the lowest person in Jannah will actually have far more than times this Dunya?
Salam aleikum brothers and sisters.

Salam aleikum brothers and sisters.
I have heard some imams say that the lowest person in Jannah will in reality have so much more than this entire Dunya and everything in it and that Allah SWT just uses the example of 10 times this Dunya and everything in it to give our extremely limited brains a tidy idea of how much he will actually get. How true is this?

according to authentic hadiths she will be with her last husband. does that mean her previous husband will lose her in jannah? what's the point of forming a relationship and taking the time to be bond then? aren't we supposed to find peace/comfort within our spouses according to the holy quran? So does the man just watch as his wife enters jannah with another man, knowing there's absolutely nothing he can do since he died?

if my wife remarries after i die, who will i get? And what if my wish was to have my wife exclusively in the hereafter (Jannah)?
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?

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!

I want to ask a question out of curiosity, it's a matter of the afterlife.
In a hadith that I once read, that the Prophet said "death will be brought in the form of a black and white sheep, then the death will be slaughtered between heaven and hell."
Well, my question.
If death itself no longer exists, do all of Allah's creatures become immortal? Or only the inhabitants of heaven and hell?
Sorry if my question is a bit confusing.

Will children who die, go to the Jannah (heaven) or they'll go to another place?
I have heard that children won't go to the heaven which Mo'menin will go (I mean the children who die before the age of puberty). In truth, they will go to another place which is not as fantastic as Jannah, but on the whole that is a good place and actually that is a better than this world.
- My question is that firstly “is it a fact that they go to another
place"?
- Secondly if so, where is that place and what is its name?
*(**Note**: I am looking for authentic hadith(s) regarding this matter)*

If a 15- to 16-year old became knowledgeable of Islam but refused to enter, if they die will they enter Heaven?
Suppose a kafir child at age of 15 or 16 heard and studied Islam, but did not enter and they were a stubborn disbeliever. Will they be punished if they die at age of 17? Will they enter Heaven?

How to interpret "A women who reveals her body or even wears tight fitting clothes wont come within 500 years of the smell of Jannah"?
[AskImam][1] quotes the Prophet as saying: > A women who reveals her body or even wears tight fitting clothes wont come within 500 years of the smell of Jannah. and the extended version > Women who are dressed but appear naked, who will be inclined (towards men) and make (men) incline (toward them)....
AskImam quotes the Prophet as saying:
> A women who reveals her body or even wears tight fitting clothes wont come within 500 years of the smell of Jannah.
and the extended version
> Women who are dressed but appear naked, who will be inclined (towards men) and make (men) incline (toward them). They will not enter Jannah and they will not smell its fragrance where as its fragrance can be would be smelt from the distance of 500 years.
I'm struggling to understand this. In particular:
- Am I correct in understanding that this is a quote from the Prophet Muhammad ?
- Does this imply that (believing) women who dress immodestly throughout their lives without repenting will not go to heaven? If so, where do they go?
- How much of their body is required to be revealed before this applies?
- What does "smelt from the distance of 500 years" mean? Distance is not usually measured in years, nor is it smelt.

Bad wishes in Jannah

It is said that in jannah one shall get whatever he want and in Jannah all wishes will be fulfilled as mentioned in the Quran , however in this world we have some desires that are not appropriate and are harmful , I have read people saying that in Jannah we will not make these wishes as our minds will be purified , but my Question is that , do these harmful things have to be the same in Jannah ?, I don't think so ... I mean they can turn harmless and good in Jannah thus not being considered bad anymore (but the experience can be same or better), since Allah can do anything he can turn the possible harmful things into appropriate and harmless , one mentioned is the wine that is turned good and appropriate in Jannah for believers to experience it,... can this transformation from bad to good not happen to all other possible bad things , (only things that are possible to be turn good). so that one can experience these in heaven . I think it does not make complete sense that "our minds will be purified so we won't make all these Bad desires " I think this can only be said to some specific evil things that have no chance to be turned good and pure in Jannah
.
for example if one loves boxing in this world and it is harmful in this world , but in jannah can he not make the wish for boxing , and experience it in a permissible harmless form , may be something like a video game(just an example) or any other way ,
(since Allah can do anything) ,

> It was narrated from Anas ibn Maalik, from the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon him) that he said: “[People] will continue to be thrown into Hell, and it will say, ‘Are there any more to come?’ until the Lord of Glory places His foot in it, then its parts will be integrated with one another and it will say: Enough, enough, by Your glory and Your honour. And there will be extra space in Paradise until Allah creates another creation to live in the extra space of Paradise.”

Are only the inhabitants of heaven and hell immortal?
I have a question, is it the case that when death is removed in the afterlife, all beings automatically become immortal? Or only the inhabitants of heaven and hell? Or are other beings who are not residents of heaven and hell also immortal?
