One of the important issues of theology is to know the essence of the Supreme Being, which is prohibited from thinking and reasoning in this field in religious texts. This prohibition has caused questions to be raised about the why of prohibition of rationalization in God's Essence. What meant in this research lies in the comparative study of the reason of prohibition of rationalization in the Essence of God in two rationalist and formalist approaches. The research method of the study is problem-oriented, theoretical and deals with the development of previous data. The information needed for this research has been collected through library study and especially in religious texts and intellectual analysis. The findings of this research show that epistemological philosophies that imply the incomprehensibility of God's Essence and the limitation of reason in knowing God's Essence, and non-epistemic philosophies that avoid creating problems and misleading consequences and know prohibition as restricted to nonexperts only, have viewed religious texts to discuss the prohibition. Keywords: Prohibition of thought in the Essence of God, the Why of Prohibition of thought, the Essence of God, Epistemic Philosophies, Non-Epistemic Philosophies, Rationalists, Formalists
