Sumary: Aladdin and the enchanted lamp

Once upon a time, in Arabia, a boy called Aladdin. He lived with his mother in a little house near to the market. They were very poor.

Aladdin was a lazy boy, only wanted play and eat all the time. He never helped to his mother who worked all the day.

One day, in the market, an old man called Abanazar called out to Aladdin, asked their name and their father’s name. He answered that was Aladdin, son of Mustafa. Then, Abanazar said that was his uncle, brother of Mustafa and gave to Aladdin ten pieces of gold for their mother.

The next day, Abanazar arrived at Aladdin’s house, met their mother and gave work to Aladdin in a shop.

On Friday, Abanazar took Aladdin to the beautiful gardens out of the city, up into the hills. When they came there, Aladdin couldn’t see gardens. Aladdin asked his uncle “Where is the garden?” Abanazar said to him “first we must make a fire”. Aladdin obeyed, made the fire and Abanazar took some powder out of a small box and put it on the fire while said “Abracadabra”. Suddenly, the ground under the fire began to open.

In the ground was a big stone with a ring in it. Abanazar ordered Aladdin put your hand on the ring, say your name and your father’s name. Aladdin made this and the stone moved easily. There, were stairs under the ground. Abanazar ordered Aladdin go down the stairs and bring to him a lamp.

Abanazar gave a magic ring for Aladdin protection. Aladdin went down the stairs, found the lamp, took fruit from the trees, went back to the stairs and began to up.

Aladdin didn’t want give the lamp to Abanazar and this one, angrily, added more powder and said again “Abracadabra”. Soon, the ground was closed and Aladdin didn't get out.

After of three days, Aladdin remembered the ring in his hand, put his hand on it and a sudden noise and a blue smoke came out of the ring. Out of the smoke, came out a big jinnee and said “I am here master, I am the slave of the ring. What is your wish?”. Aladdin said to the jinnee “take me out of here”. A second later, he was back on the hills.

 

Aladdin came back to his house and told the true about Abanazar to his mother. Aladdin's mother didn't have food, so Aladdin asked sell the lamp. His mother began to rub the lamp and a big jinee came. ALaddin ordered bring food and the jinnee obeyed.

Five years later, Aladdin had a shop in the market and had a nice house near the gardens. Only he and his mother knew about the lamp.

One day, the Sultan’s daughter, the princess Badr-al-Budor, was in the streets. Aladdin saw the beautiful face of the princess and fell in love with her. So, Aladdin ordered his mother go to the Sultan and ask for the princess’s hand. Aladdin’s mother carried many jewels at the Sultan’s palace and spoke about her son to the Sultan. But, the Vizier’s son also wanted the princess. The Sultan gave two months to the Vizier’s son for bring him many jewels, gold and beautiful things.

Two months later the princess was engaged with the Vizier’s son and Aladdin was sad. Then, he asked to the jinnee bring the princess. When the princess was next to him, Aladdin confessed his love for her.

 The next morning, the princess asked her father marry with Aladdin. The Sultan sent to bring Aladdin’s mother and said that the next day wanted forty gold plates with jewels, forty slave-girls, forty slaves and thus, his daughter could marry with Aladdin. Aladdin asked these things to the jinnee. So, he married with the princess and they lived happily in a new palace.

Sometime later, Abanazar arrived again to the city in Arabia. He knew that Aladdin was alive, was married with the princess and knew that he had the magic lamp.

Abanazar tricked to the princess and stole the lamp. The jinnee came out and Abanazar asked “carry Aladdin’s palace, the princess and me back to Morocco at once”. In a second, the palace and the princess were in Morocco.

The Sultan ordered bring to Aladdin that was hunting. Then, the Sultan said to him that he had forty days for find the princess or he must die. After thirty-two days, he saw the magician ring on his finger and began to rub it. The jinnee of the ring appeared and Aladdin asked bring the princess. But, the jinnee couldn’t. So, Aladdin asked takes him until the princess. In a second, both were together again. They gave to Abanazar a drink with magic powder and after five seconds, he was asleep.

Aladdin took out the magic lamp that was in Abanazar’s pocket and after, Aladdin killed Abanazar. Then, Aladdin rubs the lamp and finally, asked to the jinnee came back with the palace and the princess to Arabia, leaving to Abanazar here.

From that day, Aladdin and the princess lived happily in their palace and had many children. Aladdin always carried the magic lamp with him, day and night.
