Are there abodes in Paradise named "Al-Rida" (Contentment), "Al-Ridwan" (Divine Pleasure), or "Al-Muqarrabin" (The Proximity/Those Brought Near), and are they higher than the station of Al-Firdaws?

There is no specific station in Paradise named "Al-Rida" (contentment) or "Al-Ridwan" (supreme contentment), because all the inhabitants of Paradise are people of contentment and supreme contentment. Allah bestows His supreme contentment upon them, and He will never be displeased with them. This supreme contentment is the greatest blessing they are given. As for Al-Firdaws, it is the highest and most central part of Paradise, its ceiling is the Throne of the Most Merciful, and from it spring forth the rivers of Paradise.
