Abstract

This research aimed to compare the plots of The Maze Runner (2014) and The Story of Ashabul Kahfi. The two narratives were compared based on the similarities in the background of the two narratives: the confinement event and the similar plot of the two stories. A deeper comprehension of how particular narrative patterns impacted the creation of delivery of messages or moral values. The researcher used a qualitative approach, focusing on interpreting the phenomena. The researcher compared the plots using the narrative theory of seven basic plots by Christopher Booker. The researcher compared the two narratives by plotting the event plots and classifying the Voyage and Return plots to determine how the plots of two narratives from different eras and cultures can be compared. This analysis also tested whether seven basic plots can be applied in The Story of Ashabul Kahfi. If this theory is applicable to a prophetic story, it implies that narratives categorized as prophetic may share resemblances with other non-prophetic narratives. This statement explores what elements make a story categorized as prophetic. The result of the analysis was that the two plots of the two narratives could be compared. The plots of the two narratives had the same basic stories. This statement proved evidence that The Story of Ashabul Kahfi, a prophetic story, had the same plot structure as The Maze Runner. This finding reinforces the fact that prophetic stories are not solely transcendent products. Still, they contained elements that resonated with humans and used the influence of humans to deliver religious messages or divine teachings from God.
