Transliteration:( Udkhulul Jannata antum wa azwaajukum tuhbaroon )
"Enter Paradise, you and your wives [122], joyfully and honourably [123]."
This refers to those worldly wives who passed away while being married to the believer, as the hoor (maidens of Paradise) are already present there, and thus do not require entry. An infidel wife will not accompany her husband to Paradise. A believing woman who had multiple marriages will be with her last husband. This is also why the wives of the Holy Prophet ﷺ are forbidden for anyone else in marriage—they will be with him in Paradise.
This signifies a generous hospitality that will reflect on the believers' faces with joy and radiance. Allah Almighty will honour them in a manner befitting their elevated status.
