Chapters on the description of Paradise
Jāmiʿ at-Tirmidhī 2531
فِي الْجَنَّةِ مِائَةُ دَرَجَةٍ مَا بَيْنَ كُلِّ دَرَجَتَيْنِ كَمَا بَيْنَ السَّمَاءِ وَالأَرْضِ وَالْفِرْدَوْسُ أَعْلاَهَا دَرَجَةً وَمِنْهَا تُفَجَّرُ أَنْهَارُ الْجَنَّةِ الأَرْبَعَةُ وَمِنْ فَوْقِهَا يَكُونُ الْعَرْشُ فَإِذَا سَأَلْتُمُ اللَّهَ فَسَلُوهُ الْفِرْدَوْسَ
fī al-jannah māʾah darajatin mā bayna kulli darajatayni kamā bayna as-samāʾi wa-l-arḍi wa-l-firdawsu aʿlāhā darajatan waminhā tufajjaru anhāru al-jannah al-arbaʿah wamin fawqihā yakūnu al-ʿarshu fa-idhā saʾaltumu-Llāh fasalūhu al-firdawsa

The full narration
Ubadah bin As-Samit narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:"In Paradise, there are a hundred levels, what is between every two levels is like what is between the heavens and the earth. Al-Firdaus is ts highest level, and from it the four rivers of Paradise are made to flow forth. So when you ask Allah, ask Him for Al-Firdaus." Another chain reports a similar narration
