Abstract
 
Holy Quran has stated its magnificent meanings in different ways. One of these methods is stating human and moral issues in the form of portrayal. Portrayal is the appropriate and special tool in method of Qurani utterance. In this method, Quran has stated abstract meanings in different moral, believing, social, political and historical subjects in pictures language and made the meaning sensible and imaginative by help of pictures. What is intended in this research, is to extract the aims and methods of Quran by portraying moral doctrines. Breathing spirit of life and motion into meanings, creating change and having deep impression on hearts, conveying extensive meanings in a few words are among the aims of moral portrayal of Quran. Having deeper effect on its addressees and warning people to pay attention to the importance of observing moral issues are among other aims of Quran in using this specific style.
