[Machine] He said, "The distance between the lowest heaven and the one above it is the journey of five hundred years. And between each heaven is the journey of five hundred years. And between the seventh heaven and the Throne is the journey of five hundred years. And between the Throne and the water is the journey of five hundred years. And the Throne is above the water. And Allah is above the Throne, knowing what you are upon."  

الطبراني:٨٩٨٧حَدَّثَنَا زَكَرِيَّا بْنُ يَحْيَى السَّاجِيُّ ثنا هُدْبَةُ بْنُ خَالِدٍ ثنا حَمَّادُ بْنُ سَلَمَةَ عَنْ عَاصِمٍ عَنْ زِرٍّ عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ

أَنَّهُ قَالَ «مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا وَالَّتِي تَلِيهَا مَسِيرَةُ خَمْسِ مِائَةِ عَامٍ وَمَا بَيْنَ كُلِّ سَمَاءٍ مَسِيرَةُ خَمْسِ مِائَةِ عَامٍ وَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ السَّابِعَةِ وَالْكُرْسِيِّ مَسِيرَةَ خَمْسِ مِائَةِ عَامٍ وَمَا بَيْنَ الْكُرْسِيِّ وَالْمَاءِ مَسِيرَةَ خَمْسِ مِائَةِ عَامٍ وَالْعَرْشُ عَلَى الْمَاءِ وَاللهُ ﷻ عَلَى الْعَرْشِ يَعْلَمُ مَا أَنْتُمْ عَلَيْهِ»
