Abstract :
The movie Ayub Prophet was produced in 1372, written and directed by Farajullah Selahshor. The story narrated by this movie has fundamental differences with what the Holy Quran has told. Even though the story of Ayub is mentioned in the Qur'an in six verses, it does not mean that this short story is incompletely told or does not have story elements such as characterisation. In the story of Ayub of the Qur'an, we have four characters: Job, Lord, Satan and Ahl. The characterization of these four characters in the movie of Prophet Ayub is different from the characterization of these four characters in the Qur'an. This fundamental difference in structure and background in these two versions of the story of Ayub is due to the fact that in the movie Ayub the Prophet, the story of the Qur'an is not the basis of the Qur'an, but other sources such as the Holy Bible, traditions and books of prophet stories are cited.
