| Telling stories of previous nations and divine prophets is one of the educational methods of the Qur'an and one of the ways of conveying the concepts and revealed knowledge in the path of human guidance. The unique method of the Qur'an in using the structure of repeating stories in illustration through the narration of cut images from a story in several surahs with different expression methods and expressions in a scattered and short way by selecting the effective scenes of the story, instead of narrating it coherently has caused the sarcasm and objection of the opponents and some Orientalists to the extent that they consider the repetition as a cause of instability, and to say that this style of illustration is a proof of the non-revelation of the Qur'an and its adaptation from multiple sources. Therefore, in the research, an attempt has been made to describe and analyze the story of Prophet Noah (as) in several surahs in a descriptive-analytical method, with reference to the circumstantial evidence obtained from the ideas of Quranic scholars and commentators, as well as to clarify and deepen the situation and cause of revelation of the verses, and comparison of the repetition and different depiction of a story in different surahs, despite the unity of the hero or the event to prove this hypothesis that the structure of stories is a function of the structure of surahs; and the main motive behind repetition and scattering of illustrations and stories in surahs of the Qur'an, with a guiding and educational approach, is to use them in accordance with the purpose of surhas in expressing the essence of meaning hidden in the stories and incidents. |
