Question for Muslim authors

What story structure(s) are used in the Quran?

I was wondering based on analysis of the Quran, what story structure is used in it when telling a story, recounting an event or in general? I've heard in passing that the Quran uses a ring structure, but as stated, only in passing.

I would be grateful if anyone can direct me to research or material on this topic.

What story structure(s) are used in the Quran?

Salam alaikum everyone. I'm a muslim and I like to write, so I was wondering based on analysis of the Quran, what story structure is used in it when telling a story, recounting an event or in general? Some examples of story structures are the 3 act structure, kishotenketsu and much more. I've heard in passing that the Quran uses a ring structure, but as stated, only in passing.

I would be grateful if anyone can direct me to research or material on this topic.

Has anyone watched some of "the greatest movies of all time" and thought they just... weren't that good?

This post isn't intended for negativity— I'm just curious to know if there's anyone with a similar experience out there.

I've watched some movies which are considered some of the best works of cinema, but came out kind slightly disappointed. The best way I can describe it was that they weren't *that* good and can't see why they're ranked so high, whether in terms of acting, plot or pacing, or simply not that interesting or intriguing. I've found this happens more to me with older movies.

Has anyone had a similar experience?
