The research aims to investigate the Arabic folklore “HatimTai” to reveal its constructive elements at narrative levels. Propp’s narrative model is exercised as a theoretical framework. It’s a qualitative study and a descriptive method is applied. The selected Tale has all the constructive elements introduced by Propp. Some functions are replicated more than two or three times. This world class story deals with ethics and morality. The research will be helpful for the future researchers who desire to conduct research on cultural folklores in Pakistani or other contexts.
