Neo, I am just curious. Maybe others have this doubt too and you could clear it up for us.

Can you tell us how this 72 virgins have come up? What is the origin and where was this first mentioned?Is this a myth or is it real?

How come the number 72? Why not 71 or 73 or something like a nice round number like 10 or 50 or 100?

72 doesnt really ring a bell seems like 6 dozen but why this?

btw does 72 virgins mean female virgins?

what happens when a female obtains martyrdom? does she get 72 male virgins? Whats in store for her in paradise?


Not looking for whether they "really" get virgins or not, that I realize even you cannot tell us. Just the origin and the exact promises and any reasoning behind it(if you know).
