Women, mostly western often question the fact that men would get multiple Hoor in Jannah, whereas they would get only a single husband, and regard this as unfair to women. They know they would be the leader of the Hoor, but still are not satisfied. How do we address this complaint? (U.S.A)
That which Allah has created from his power has been created in a special order or system, of which one system is that of having one man for one woman, and this is just natural. It is a sign of purity of disposition in terms of character and personality. However, sometimes a woman is not satisfied with a man and she desires to marry more than one, but this is not the case of the life Hereafter.
In the Hereafter, there will be no desire for her to have more than one man in marriage, nor will any man wish that which is against his nature or against the nature of the creation of Allah. For this reason no woman will desire more than one man in Paradise. Secondly, many of the conditions that pertain to this world will not apply to the next one, and no woman will be discontent with her husband. She will not feel inclined to anyone besides her husband. 
In fact, in the Akhirah, the relationship between people will not be because of necessity or physical need as they are in this world, because in this world we establish relationships due to necessity and sometimes that necessity is fulfilled and sometimes it is not. But in the Akhirah, everything will be for pleasure and attaining happiness. This is the reason that there will be no deficiency or fault in man in that world.
