Story has Long been Exploited to Transfer Human Culture and Concepts. It is the most Consistent Verbal form to the Human Mind. Therefore, its Audience Spectrum is more Widespread and its Influence Power is Higher. Though the Qur'an's main Language is the Language of Religion and Spiritual Guidance, it Exploits the Storytelling Method in its Complete form to Disseminate its Message. Useing the Literature on Qur'anic Stories, this Paper Attempts to Examine the Privileges as well as the Differences Existed between Qur'anic Stories and Human Stories and also to Classify them into Fourteen Headings of “Accuracy of the Statements, Being a true Story, Compactness of Talks, Selectivity, Breakdown of time Unity, Step-by-Step Process, Obfuscation and Vagueness, Iteration, Talks Amid Stories, Stories in Stories, Variety and Fun in Storytelling, Sudden Report of the Story, Secrecy and Virtuousness as well as small Presence of Women in the Qur'anic Stories”. Earlier, a Short Etymology of the Words in the Stories as well as the Special Structure of the Qur'anic Stories were also Considered.
