Will men have multiple wives in paradise?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

If a pious believer had more than one wife in this life and all of them were pious believers, they will be with him in the Paradise but with out any jealousy or bad feelings between them.

Wassalam.
It is said that the Hoors in paradise are mentioned in the Quran as incentives for men. Are women also similarly incentivized?
Sayyed Mohammad Al-Musawi

Pious female in Paradise will be granted the best husband with whom she will enjoy the maximum happiness which she can dream.

Wassalam.
As it is said that the people of paradise will feel no pain or suffering, does that mean that there will be no Majlis of Imam Hussain (a) in paradise?
Zaid Alsalami

Bismihi ta'ala

At the end of times, prior to Qiyamah, there will be Raj'ah; the return of the purest and the return of the wickedest. 

This is when retribution will happen, and those responsible for the worst of oppression will be held accountable for what they did. 

This means that in Heaven there will be no more sorrow or grief or sadness. Indeed, as our ahadith say, attending the Majalis of Imam Husain (a.s.), weeping for him and the tragedy of Karbala, writing poem for him, and everything related to serving Imam Husain (a.s.) will amount to mandatory entering of Heaven. 

This itself is the greatest blessing, if we do it sincerely and with correct ma'rifah, truly recognising the status of the Imam and following his teachings in practice.

If we are fortunate enough, we could also be in the vicinity of Imam Husain (a.s.) and Ahlul Bayt (a.s.) in Heaven, in shaa Allah.

And Allah knows best.
Will women have to observe Hijab in paradise as well? If so, why is that if paradise is not a place of duty but a reward?
Zaid Alsalami

Bismihi ta'ala

Heaven is a place of reward and bliss. There is no taklif in Heaven. There are no ahkam, or rulings or laws. Women or men do not need to observe mandatory laws that are only legislated for us here in this dunya. 

We just need to make sure we perform our duties in the best way possible, so that we are fortunate and blessed to end up in the everlasting abode of Heaven, in shaa Allah.

And Allah knows best.
