Abstract
One of the topics of theological debate among Islamic theologians and commentators is the issue of seeing and not seeing God. The origin of this debate is based on the adherence to the appearances of some verses of the Quran. Among the verses that advise the seeing of God, the present article has investigated and examined two verses of Surah Al-A'raf 143 and 103 of An'am and the views of two prominent scholars; Fakhr Razi and Javadi Amoli on this matter. Accordingly, it seems that Fakhr Razi accepts visual vision by citing the appearances of the verses and by interpreting and interpreting the verses of vision, he believes that this vision does not require the physical existence of God. On the other hand, Professor Javadi Amoli, with a special interpretation and along with preserving the appearances of the verses and the apparent contradiction of the verses, considers vision and not seeing to be a summation.
