A Comparative Study of Narration levels and Its Elements in Plot of Al-kahaf Quranic Verse

Narrative Science creates a theoretical and practical framework and pattern to analyses various types of stories such as real life, historical and narrative stories which also includes Quranic stories. A great part of Quranic teachings and rules which is a collection of advices, lessons, judgments and similarities, are transferred by means of literary devices specially techniques related to storytelling, Narrativization and generally what is called "Narrative Fiction" literature. One of efficient ways to understand and analyses Quranic stories is to use narrative science theories and methods such as: narrative levels, plot, story, narrative context, narrative method of stories, meanings and basics which present a tool to analyses the text.
Kahaf verse includes a number of unique stories in Quran: story of Companions of the cave, story of Moses and Khidr and story of Dhul-Qarnayn. Combination of these three stories in a single verse and their Semantic affinities with each other hidden in their episodic appearance creates a type of unification in form and meaning. We have used narrative science theories in present paper to analyses various levels of narratives in Kahaf verse (Companions of the cave).
In conclusion we emphasis that narrative plot of stories in Kahaf verse is noticeable based on continuous construction methods of various narrative levels; integration and interconnectivity of these level with each other; successive fractions in story line and episodic analysis of stories in appearance and their integrity in essence. All three stories besides each other mention characters which become hidden: absence of companions of the cave, absence of Dhul-Qarnayn and absence of khidr; whom all have long lives and face issues related to time periods.
