The Verse 88 of Surah al-Naml of Quran alludes to the movement of mountains, comparing it to the movement of clouds. Commentators have presented various interpretations of this verse. Sadr al-Muta'alhin has interpreted the movement mentioned in this verse as "Substantial motion". The aim of this research is to examine different interpretations of this verse and the impact of the doctrine of substantial motion on its interpretation. In this research, the researchers have analyzed and critically examined various interpretations of this verse and have investigated  the quality of substantial motion can be applied to the verse. The ultimate conclusion is that among the three common interpretations of this verse, the interpretation of the movement of mountains on the Day of Resurrection and their disintegration is subject to criticism; however, the interpretation of the spatial movement of mountains due to the translational movement of the earth and the substantial motion of mountains and the bodies of human beings, indeed all material beings, is acceptable and correct
