Between the lowest heaven and the one above it are five hundred years, and between each heaven are five hundred years, and between the seventh heaven and the Footstool are five hundred years, and between the Footstool and the water are five hundred years, and the Throne is above the water, and Allah is above the Throne, and nothing of your deeds is hidden from Him.
