The moral teachings that came in the Qur’anic stories are a deterrent means to combat all kinds of corruption and deviation, in the reality of man and human society in the movement of life. The main purpose of Qur’anic stories is to learn about the news of the past nations and past centuries; So that the one who is familiar with this knows the happiness of the one who obeys God, and the misery of the one who disobeys Him. This means that the intent of the Qur’anic stories is not narration and narration, but rather the sermons and lessons that these stories carry, guiding the reader to follow the paths of success and guidance. Qur’anic stories are a method of calling to God Almighty, through which we learn about the methods of the prophets in calling to God Almighty, the punishment of believers and the punishment of liars. The Qur’anic story, with its captivating style, represents a depiction of the lived reality. The Qur’anic stories combined the highness of the goal, the splendor of the style, its refinement, its subtlety, and its accuracy.This research deals with important aspects of moral and Islamic teachings, which are the mainstay of reforming the individual and society, and the first pillar in preserving the nation from deterioration and the collapse of nations upon it. Ethical teachings are the basis of a good society for instilling values, customs, morals, good qualities and positive trends.The problem of the research appears in that the Qur’anic stories carry with it great educational benefits and great Islamic values and moral teachings. In raising this topic, I relied on the descriptive-analytical approach, as I went back to the Holy Qur’an to learn about the aspects of stories and morals that I dealt with, and then categorize them into assets and groups, according to what the Holy Qur’an mentioned to them.Through the study, we reached a number of results, the most important of which are: 1. The most important source of lofty values is the Noble Qur’an in general and Qur’anic stories in particular. 2. Quranic stories have unique characteristics and characteristics that are not found in any other kind of stories. 3. The story in the Meccan surahs differs from its occurrence in the Medinan surahs. 4. We see in the Meccan surahs many stories of the previous prophets, peace be upon them, and their nations. In the civil surahs, we see in the civil surahs the frequent use of evidence and proofs of religious facts. 5. Among the moral teachings that the Meccan and Medinan surahs have in common are good tidings, truthfulness, and reconciliation.
