Verse 48Among the characteristics of the women in Paradise is that they restrain their eyes from other than their husbands. The women in Paradise are not only beautiful and charming, but also chaste and covered.
And finally, in the sixth stage, the Qur’an points to the chaste women in Paradise, who do not have love towards anyone save their husbands, and do not look at anybody except them. They have beautiful large eyes.
It says:
“And with them will be chaste women; restraining their glances,”The Arabic word /tarf/ originally means eyelids, and since at the time of looking the eyelids move, this word ironically refers to the act of looking. Thus, the Qur’anic phrase /qasirat-ut-tarf/ means the women who have a short glance, and two views have been mentioned about its meaning.
The first meaning is that: they look only at their husbands, and restraining their eyes from anything, they look at them alone.
The second meaning is that: this application canonically shows that they have love only for their husbands, and except their love, they have no other love in their hearts. This is one of the greatest privileges of a wife that she does not think of anyone but her husband and loves none but to him.
