As'alaamu Alaikkum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuhu

Narrated Salim's father:
The Prophet said, "Any person who takes a piece of land unjustly will sink down the seven earths on the Day of Resurrection.
Bukhari
English reference: Vol. 4, Book 54, Hadith 418
Arabic reference: Book 59, Hadith 3232

Does anybody know for sure if the seven earths mentioned are literal seven earths or is it allogorical? Same goes for seven heavens. Thanks.
