Hadith on Jannah: Men and women boast over who is majority in Paradise

Muhammad ibn Sirin reported: Some people were boasting, mentioning whether there would be more men or women in Paradise. Abu Huraira said: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Verily, the first group to enter Paradise will have faces as bright as the full moon at night; the next group will have faces as bright as shining stars in the sky. Every person will have two wives and the marrow of their shanks would glimmer beneath their skin; there will be no one in Paradise without a wife.”
