The blessed Surah At-Takathur, revealed in the early Islamic period, holds particular significance due to its emphatic pedagogical admonitions and potent warnings regarding the chastisement of the Hereafter. Employing a library-based and comparative method, this research investigates and analyzes the viewpoints of two eminent Islamic exegetes, Allamah Tabatabai and Ibn Ashur, concerning the principal themes of this surah. The findings reveal that while both exegetes concur on the overarching principle of the warnings and the unequivocal occurrence of otherworldly punishment, significant differences exist in their perspectives regarding the "timing of beholding the Hellfire." Allamah Tabatabai, adopting a mystico-philosophical approach, posits the potential vision of Hell in this very world, whereas Ibn Ashur confines this witnessing strictly to the posthumous realm. Furthermore, discrepancies are observed in the two interpreters' understanding of the "significance of visiting graves." The comparative study of the commentaries Al-Mizan and At-Tahrir wa al-Tanwir demonstrates that these divergences stem from fundamental and methodological differences in Qur'anic hermeneutics, which are exhaustively examined in this study.
