: Lightning is a complex natural phenomenon that has fascinated humanity since ancient civilizations, both as a scientific subject and a religious symbol. This study was conducted because previous research tends to separate scientific and theological perspectives on lightning; therefore, an integrative analysis is needed to achieve a holistic understanding. The study employs a qualitative analytical-critical literature review approach by examining scientific, philosophical, and religious sources from academic publications and classical texts. The analysis is interpretative, focusing on key concepts from each discipline. The findings reveal that from a physical perspective, lightning is an atmospheric electrostatic discharge caused by charge separation within storm clouds. Ontologically, lightning represents an objective reality independent of human perception. Epistemologically,understanding of lightning has evolved from mythological interpretations to scientific explanations through empirical methods. Axiologically, lightning holds dual value as both a natural hazard and a potential source of energy and ecological balance. Religiously, especially in Islam, lightning is interpreted as a manifestation of divine power. In conclusion, integrating perspectives from physics, philosophy, and religion enriches human understanding of nature and fosters constructive dialogue between science and spirituality..References
