Folklore has been associated with stories and sayings due to it being a social adhesive that makes people together and shares their customs, traditions, conventions, and civilizations. The aim of this study is to illustrate the importance and significance of Iraqi folklore in terms of its precious, valuable, and wealthy information, particularly in Iraqi Literature and folkloric resources and inheritances. Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves" (Arabic: علي بابا والأربعون لصا) is a folk tale from the One Thousand and One Nights. The undoubted masterpiece of ancient Iraq - and one of the great works of world literature - is the Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh. The Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh is a long narrative poem that examines the universal human search for meaning and longing for life. It was originally the work of an anonymous Babylonian poet who lived in Iraq more than 3,700 years ago. He composed the epic in the Akkadian language, but the literary traditions of Gilgamesh also inform five shorter narrative poems in the Sumerian language, and these are even older. The study uses a qualitative and descriptive style and approach to illustrate the salience of Iraqi heritage and folkloristic information
