There is a hadeeth that I heard but I do not know how sound it is. In fact I have not found the hadeeth in written form anywhere, and I do not know if it exists at all. The one who said it did not mention any source. The hadeeth says something to the effect that when a man enters upon his wife in paradise he will be dazzled by her beauty, and will think that she is Allah, so he will prostrate to her. She will say to him: What are you doing? He will say: You are very beautiful and I thought that you were Allah. She will say: Rather I am your wife from the (former) world. Is this hadeeth sound or not?

Praise
be to Allah

This is
not a hadeeth; rather these are false and reprehensible words that are
distasteful offensive to the listener. The believers will recognise their
Lord on the Day of Resurrection and will have the utmost joy in Paradise of
gazing upon Him, as is the belief of Ahl as-Sunnah wa’l-Jamaa‘ah. Please see
the answer to question no. 14525

Al-Bukhaari
(806) and Muslim (182) narrated from Abu Hurayrah that the people said: O
Messenger of Allah, will we see our Lord on the Day of Resurrection? He
said: “Do you have any trouble seeing the moon clearly on the night when it
is full when there are no clouds?” They said: No, O Messenger of Allah. He
said: “Do you have any trouble seeing the sun clearly at noon when there are
no clouds?” They said: No. He said: “You will see Him in like manner. The
people will be gathered on the Day of Resurrection, then He will say:
‘Whoever used to worship anything, let him follow it.’ So some of them will
follow the sun, some will follow the moon, some will follow the false gods,
and this ummah will remain, including its hypocrites. Then Allah will come
to them and will say: ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say: ‘We will stay here
until our Lord comes, and when our Lord comes, we will recognize Him.’ Allah
will come to them and will say: ‘I am your Lord,’ and they will say, ‘You
are our Lord.’ He will call them, and the siraat will be set up over Hell,
and I will be the first of the Messengers to cross it with my ummah. On that
day, no one but the Messengers will speak, and the prayer of the Messengers
will be: ‘O Allah, grant safety, grant safety!’”

According
to another version: “There will remain this ummah, including its
hypocrites.  Then Allah will come in a form other than the form which they
know, and He will say, ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say: ‘We seek refuge in
Allah from you. We will stay here until our Lord comes, and when our Lord
comes, we will recognize Him.’ Then Allah will come to them in the form
which they know, and will say, ‘I am your Lord.’ They will say, ‘You are our
Lord,’ and they will follow Him.”

Muslim
narrated from Suhayb, that the Prophet (blessings and peace of Allah be upon
him) said: “When the people of Paradise have entered Paradise, Allah, may He
be blessed and exalted, will say: ‘Do you want anything more?’ They will
say: ‘Have You not brightened our faces and admitted us to Paradise and
saved us from the Fire?’ Then He will remove the veil, and they will not be
given anything that is more dear to them than gazing upon their Lord (may He
be glorified and exalted).”

In these
reports we see that the believers will see their Lord and will recognise Him
on the Day of Resurrection and after they enter Paradise. So how can it be
said that when the believer sees his wife among the hoor al-‘iyn, he will
prostrate to her, thinking that she is Allah?!

“Glory
be to You (O Allah) this is a great lie” [an-Noor 24:16].

the description of the hoor al-‘iyn in the Qur’an and Sunnah.

And Allah
knows best.
