Temporal point of view examines time in the narrative and the three main aspects of order, duration and frequency are discussed in it, which should be examined in the whole text and not in one sentence. This article descriptively and analytically examines the temporal point of view in the story of Abraham 7 as the ancestor of the monotheistic religions and Lot 7 as his cousin and that the story is intertwined in the two holy books of the Holy Quran and the Old Testament. The results show that the general ideology that dominates both of these books has a direct effect on their temporal point of view. The order in the story of the Old Testament is more prominent than the Holy Quran and the time of recitation is more in harmony with the time of narration in the Holy Quran than the Old Testament. Also, the frequency is repetitive in the Holy Quran whereas in the Old Testament it is often singular. These cases originate from the ideology of the Quran, which is directional and educational, while the Old Testament is historical, and tries to express it in general.
