Scientific interpretation is one of the long-standing topics in the history of interpretation and interpretive methods. In addition to its evolution, the study of different theories and views of the scientific interpreters of the Quran in different eras, especially in the present era, has been of special importance, and it has witnessed different approaches in this regard. Meanwhile, Tantāwi and al-Jawāhir have been discussed more than any other interpreter and interpretation in the field of scientific interpretive studies. Tantāwi believes that knowing the Quran is not possible without using modern sciences. The purpose of this study is to analyze the so-called scientific interpretation of Tantāwi Jauhari, which was once frequently referred to and highly regarded in scientific forums. The author's scientific attitude to the interpretation of Quranic verses in those days had made that book a thought-provoking and interesting work for scholars. However, this trend gradually faded into insignificance and disappeared from view. Hence, scholars have never studied it diligently and have not correctly specified its place among the works of interpretation. Some scholars have praised Tantāwi, while others have criticized him or even called him a dreamer. Tantāwi used the ideas of modern science in understanding the Quran in every way and form and tried to incorporate many scientific theories and issues into the verses of the Quran. As a result, Tantāwi's interpretation, as it is considered, is not a scientific interpretation, and he has gone to extremes in dealing with the scientific verses of the Quran. This research has been carried out using the descriptive-analytical method.
