چکیده:
Narrative, as one of the main discourses of linguistics in the contemporary world, has been introduced to the realm of philosophy and theology too. The tradition of Christian theology has tried to highlight the significance of narrative in its re-reading the Holy Book. This re-reading has its roots in the universality of narrative in all aspects of life. Through this re-reading, believers share an experience with Jesus to reach an objective understanding of theses doctrines. This article aims to briefly describe narrative theology to show that Muslim philosophers, such as Suhrawardi, also applied it in their works. He, in his essays, such as The Red Intellect, tries to link traditions of Iran with Islamic elements. Having shown his agreement with authority of narrative in his prose works, he prepares his audiences for coexistence experiences, during which he could turn theoretical understanding to concrete manifestation of Islamic doctrine.

Analysis of Narrative Discourse in Suhrawardi's Treatise on the Red Intellect; A Bed for Modeling Narrative Theology in the Islamic Tradition 1 Seyed Amirreza Mazari (Article Received: 1398/05/31 - Article Accepted: 1399/01/27) Abstract Narrative is one of the most important discourses of today's era in the field of linguistics that has also entered the world of philosophy and theology.
Hans Frei ٣, one of the pioneers of narrative theology, learned from Karl Barth that Christian faith is not based on worldly wisdom and human self-awareness, but rather the survival of such faith is through narrative.
Lindbeck considers the Christian story of Christ and the Christian Church to be more preferable than any other story in the modern world, and states that one must live with this story, and therefore, from Lindbeck's point of view, doctrines are criteria for portraying God and the world in narratives and everyday life, just like rules and grammar that are used for language.
In simpler terms, narrative frames time, connecting the past moment to the future, and the coexistence of story characters practically leads us to a very important question about life: Is life worth living?
Especially after Barth’s views and also the re-reading of Niebuhr’s work, namely The Story of Our Lives, narrative theology became the main scene of Christian theological debates, especially in the discussion of religious language.
” An even more important point is that Suhrawardi himself, in narrating his own thought process, takes on the role of the main character to show that humans must be present themselves.
