The aesthetics of the stories of holy Quran means identification of beauty and art in its expression. The Quran is not a book of fictions, but its real stories, with religious and educational purpose, have artistically been expressed, with a rhetorical style and dynamic images that one can realize its artistic aspects in content and structure. The geometric structure of its stories makes it possible to find and study most of fiction writing elements such as character, incident, dialogue, plot, time and place in its text. These elements have specifically been used in different positions according to the purpose and function of the stories. The first three elements, od\f above-mentioned elements, have predominantly been used in Quran stories. Although plot has made a strong relation between the components of its stories, time and place are the elements have received little attentions. None of the story elements are the essential purpose of Quran. In present study, besides the terminology and lexical meaning of the words beauty and story, the style, the method of expression, and the story elements of Quran are what would be studied.
