This article explores the narrative structure in the Quranic surahs related to the story of creation. It begins with a brief introduction to the theoretical concepts of narrative grammar. The study then examines how this narrative grammar functions within the selected surahs at both micro and macro levels. At the micro level, the main events of each surah are outlined, identifying their fixed and variable elements. Additionally, the composition of these narratives is analyzed in terms of temporal, spatial, and causal principles. At the macro level, the study highlights the connection between these surahs, the prophetic biography, and the core teachings of Islam, including monotheism (Tawhid), prophethood (Nubuwwah), resurrection (Ma‘ad), and divine justice (‘Adl). These stories align seamlessly with the overarching themes and objectives of their respective surahs. Through Adam’s creation, God affirms His oneness (Tawhid) and appoints prophets to guide Adam's descendants. In contrast, Iblis and his followers oppose the prophets and the righteous. However, divine justice ultimately ensures that victory belongs to the righteous, and Adam and his progeny return to God (resurrection). Thus, the core theme of Adam’s story revolves around three key axes: the call to worship, arrogance and rejection, and the salvation of believers alongside the downfall of disbelievers—an axis that extends to other Quranic narratives as well. The findings of this study deepen our understanding of the Quran’s narrative structures and their connection to divine teachings. Furthermore, they provide a foundation for further research in narratology, semantics, and the intertextual analysis of religious texts.

SUBJECT & OBJECTIVES: The main subject and objective of this article is to analyze the divine identity of women based on the models of the Quran. As an example of a pure life in the modern era, seeking explanatory theories can help deal with contemporary social challenges. The main goal of the research is to show a revelational solution by looking at contemporary social challenges in the modern era with a special look at women's issues. METHOD & FINDING: This research uses a qualitative methodology, including library research, critical analysis of Islamic texts, and an examination of Quranic verses and narrations. Based on the findings of this research, it is possible to show the Islamic model of Muslim women as an effective solution to facing contemporary social challenges. Also, the identity of Muslim women in the Holy Quran is not only defined based on divine and human values but also is presented as one of the basic pillars of Islamic resistance. The Quran has introduced women and men as equal in creation, responsibility, and achievement of perfection. Additionally, This research demonstrates that Quranic models, particularly models such as Āsīya, Maryam, and Jochebed, the mother of prophet Moses, highlight women's significant role in overcoming spiritual and social challenges. Their examples provide insights into gender equality and resilience within Islamic teachings. CONCLUSION: By presenting models such as Āsīya, Maryam, and Jochebed, their key role in overcoming spiritual and social challenges is pointed out.
