وَعَنْ عُبَادَةَ بْنِ الصَّامِتِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: ”الْجَنَّةُ مِائَةُ دَرَجَةٍ مَا بَيْنَ كُلِّ دَرَجَتَيْنِ مَسِيرَةُ مِائَةِ عَامٍ وَقَالَ عَفَّانُ أَحَدُ الرُّوَاةِ: كَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ إِلَى الْأَرْضِ وَالْفِرْدَوْسُ أَعْلَاهَا دَرَجَةً وَمِنْهَا تَخْرُجُ الْأَنْهَارُ الْأَرْبَعَةُ وَالْعَرْشُ مِنْ فَوْقِهَا وَإِذَا سَأَلْتُمُ اللَّهَ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى فَاسْأَلُوهُ الْفِرْدَوْسَ“
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ubadah bin Samit (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Paradise has one hundred levels; between each two levels is a distance of one hundred years’ journey or the distance between the earth and the sky. The highest level is Jannat al-Firdaws; from it flow four rivers, and above it is the Throne of Allah Almighty. Whenever you ask Allah Almighty, ask for Jannat al-Firdaws.
