Source: Fatawa Amanpuri by Shaykh Ghulam Mustafa Zaheer Amanpuri❀ Question:
What is the authenticity of the following narration?
❀ Reported from ʿAbdullah ibn ʿUmar (RA) that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ said:
إن أزواج أهل الجنة ليغنين أزواجهن بأحسن أصوات سمعها أحد قط إن مما يغنين : نحن الخيرات الحسان أزوا كرام ينظرن بقرة أعيان وإن مما يغنين به : نحن الخالدات فلا يمتنه نحن الآمنات فلا يخفنه نحن المقيمات فلا يطعنه .
"The wives of the people of Paradise will sing to their husbands in the most beautiful voices anyone has ever heard. Among what they will sing is: ‘We are the righteous and beautiful women, the noble wives who bring delight to the eyes.’ They will also sing: ‘We are eternal, we shall never die. We are safe, never to fear. We will remain here, never to depart.’"
