Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The highest and most magnificent level of Paradise is Al-Firdaws Al-A'la (the Most Exalted Firdaws), which a Muslim should ask for. The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Indeed, in Paradise there are a hundred levels, the distance between each two levels is like that between the heavens and the earth. Al-Firdaws is the highest of them in rank. From it spring forth the four rivers of Paradise. Above it is the Throne. So, when you ask Allah, ask Him for Al-Firdaws."
