Abstract
This study examines the concept of the fire of Hell in the Hereafter through a thematic approach to the interpretation of Imam al-Qurṭubī in Tafsīr al-Jāmi‘ li Aḥkām al-Qur’ān. The discussion begins with an explanation of fire from linguistic and scientific perspectives, namely as a rapid oxidation process that produces heat and light. In the Qur’an, fire is not only understood as a natural phenomenon, but also as a sign of God’s power and a representation of severe punishment. Through an analysis of Q.S. al-Anbiyā’ (21):29 and Q.S. al-Aḥzāb (33):66, al-Qurṭubī emphasizes the connection between acts of polytheism, disobedient attitudes, and punishment in the form of the torment of Jahannam. The first verse describes the punishment for any being who claims divinity besides Allah, while the second verse depicts the repeated suffering of disbelievers whose faces are turned over in the fire. This study concludes that, according to al-Qurṭubī, the concept of fire is not merely a physical phenomenon but a moral warning emphasizing the importance of monotheism and obedience. Furthermore, this study demonstrates the integration of classical Qur’anic exegesis with modern scientific perspectives on the phenomenon of fire.
