Can someone explain if there are seven layers to the universe in Islam?

Salam everyone, I've been reading about Islamic cosmology and I've come across mentions of seven heavens or universes. Could anyone share reliable references or scholarly insights on this? JazakAllah khair in advance for helping clear this up!

The Quran mentions seven heavens in Surah Al-Mulk, verse 3. I'd recommend checking Tafsir Ibn Kathir for a detailed explanation. Hope that helps!

Yeah, it's a classic topic. The heavens are often described as layers, one above the other. Allah knows best.

I think there are hadiths on this too, like in Sahih Bukhari maybe? Someone with more knowledge should confirm.

Yep, it's referenced in the Quran. Seven layers, each with its own purpose.
