This study examines the narrative parallels between Dante Alighieri’s Inferno from The Divine Comedy and the epic poetry of Uzbekistan, particularly focusing on the depiction of hellish realms. The paper explores how both traditions present moral and spiritual journeys, specifically their representations of the descent into hell, while also analyzing the broader societal reflections these works offer. Additionally, the study compares the treatment of Heaven and Hell in Uzbek proverbs and English aphorisms, highlighting how these cultural expressions mirror attitudes towards morality, justice, and the afterlife. By engaging with both literary traditions, this paper aims to uncover commonalities and distinctions in their moral frameworks and understandings of cosmic order
