He also narrated: Mūsā ibn Ismā‘īl narrated to us: Hammād—that is, Ibn Salamah—narrated to us, from ‘Āsim, from Zirr, from ‘Abd Allāh ibn Mas‘ūd, who said: “Between the seventh heaven and the Kursī is a distance of five hundred years, and from the Kursī to the water is a distance of five hundred years. The Throne is over the water, and Allah is above the Throne, and He knows your condition.”
