Transliteration:( Wa 'indahum qaasiraatut tarfi atraab )
101. Those wives of theirs of this world who had died in their marriage, as well as the hooris and the believing wives of the polytheists and infidels who would be the inmates of heaven.Â
102. This tells us that the veil and modesty would be practiced in Paradise as well. It is obligatory to remain in the veil from the pious; because everyone in Paradise will be pious, yet there would be Purdah from them as well.
We further learn that a woman should not look at a stranger; i.e. a man must not look at the woman and the woman must not look at the man. The places in Paradise will be for the purpose of Purdah and not for their protection.
