Houri
In Islamic religious belief, houris (Pronounced ; from Arabic: حُـورِيَّـة ,حُورِيّ, romanized: ḥūriyy, ḥūrīya), are women with beautiful eyes who are described as a reward for the faithful Muslim believers in Paradise. The term is used four times in the Quran, where they are mentioned indirectly several other times, (sometimes as azwāj, lit. companions), and Hadith provide a "great deal of later elaboration". They have been said to have "captured the imagination of Muslims and non-Muslims alike". Muslim scholars differ as to whether they refer to the believing women of this world or a separate creation, with the majority opting for the latter.
