چکیده (Abstract):
This research, focusing on the perspectives of ʿAllāmah Ṭabāṭabāʾī in al-Mīzān and Rashīd Riḍā in al-Manār, examines the central role of "death contemplation" in shaping the paradigm of "the virtuous life" (al-Ḥayāt al-Ṭayyibah). The core question of this inquiry is how differing conceptions of death delineate distinct models of the ideal religious life. The study employs a comparative-conceptual analysis method, proceeding through a systematic extraction of data from the aforementioned exegetical texts. The findings reveal that within ʿAllāmah Ṭabāṭabāʾī's intellectual framework, death contemplation serves an ontological-cognitive function; death acts as an "existential taste" (dhawq wujūdī) and a "bridge for transcendence," actualizing the virtuous life at the individual level as "the assured soul" (al-nafs al-muṭmaʾinnah) and "proximity to God." In contrast, Rashīd Riḍā attributes an ethical-social function to death contemplation; the remembrance of death acts as "a restraint against caprice" and "an impetus for reform," manifesting the virtuous life in the form of "ethical living" and a just "social order." Ultimately, this research argues that this contrast reflects not a contradiction, but rather two complementary dimensions within Islamic thought: "inward spiritual journey" (sulūk) and "outward social responsibility." Reviving this dialogue can lead to a more dynamic rereading of the "virtuous life" paradigm in addressing the spiritual and social challenges of the contemporary world.
