Marriage #48

  
/ 126  
  

48. Those of them who are in the heaven of the Mohammedans have only one wife, having rejected more. For there is a Mohammedan heaven distinct from the Christian heaven. But those who eventually, as many do, acknowledge the Lord as one with the Father are separated and are in heavens which communicate with the Christian heavens; and they have conjugial love.
