وَقَالَ إِسْحَاقُ: أَخْبَرَنَا أَبُو مُعَاوِيَةَ، عَنِ الْأَعْمَشِ، عَنْ أَبِي نَصْرٍ، عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ ؓ، عَنْ رَسُولِ اللهِ ﷺ قَالَ:
« مَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ الدُّنْيَا إِلَى الْأَرْضِ مَسِيرَةُ خَمْسِمِائَةِ سَنَةٍ، وَغِلَظُ كُلٍّ مِنْهُمَا مَسِيرَةُ خَمْسِمِائَةِ سَنَةٍ، وَمَا بَيْنَ كُلِّ سَمَاءٍ إِلَى الَّتِي تَلِيهَا مَسِيرَةُ خَمْسِمِائَةِ سَنَةٍ، إِلَى السَّمَاءِ السَّابِعَةِ، وَالْأَرَضُونَ مِثْلُ ذَلِكَ، وَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ السَّابِعَةِ إِلَى الْعَرْشِ مِثْلُ جَمِيعِ ذَلِكَ
