Aladdin is desperate and, once again, fate came to his help, in the form of the genie of the ring.

The genie could not bring back the palace, but he could transport Aladdin to the garden of the palace. And one servant of Princess Badrou’l-Budour saw him through a window.


ON THE THIRTY-SIXTH NIGHT

Sheherazade said:

And Aladdin went out of the city, and began to wander, not knowing what he was doing, through the countryside. And he arrived in this way on the bank of a great river, in despair, and saying to himself: “Where will you seek your palace, Aladdin, and your wife Badrou’l-Budour, oh poor? In what unknown country will you go to find her, if she is still alive? And do you even know how she disappeared? And, his soul darkened by these thoughts, and seeing only darkness and sadness before his eyes, he wanted to throw himself into the water and drown his life and his pain there. But, at that moment, he remembered that he was a Muslim, a believer, a pure! And he testified to the unity of Allah and the mission of His Messenger. And, comforted by his act of faith and his abandonment to the will of the Highest, he set himself to do his ablutions for the evening prayer instead of throwing himself into the water. And he squatted on the bank of the river, took the water in the hollow of his hands, and began to rub his fingers and extremities with it. Now, while making these movements, he rubbed the ring that the Maghrebi had given him in the vault. And, at the same time, appeared the genie of the ring, which prostrated itself in front of him, saying: “I am in your hands, here, your slave here it is! Speak, what do you want? I am the servant of the ring, on earth, in the air, and on the water!" And Aladdin recognized perfectly, by his hideous appearance and his terrifying voice, the genie who had once delivered him from the underground. And, pleasantly surprised by an apparition which he had been so far from expecting, in the miserable state in which he was, he interrupted his ablutions and got up on his two feet and said to the genie: "O genie! of the ring, O helpful, O excellent! May Allah bless you and have you in his good graces! But hurry and bring me back my palace and my wife Princess Badrou'l-Boudour!" But the genie of the ring replied, "O master of the ring, what you ask of me is hardly within my competence, for on land, in the air, and on water, I am servant only to the ring! And I am very sorry not to be able to satisfy you on this point which is the responsibility of the servant of the lamp! For that, you have only to address yourself to that genie and it will satisfy you!" Then Aladdin, very perplexed, said to him: "In that case, O genie of the ring, and since you cannot interfere in what does not concern you by transporting here the palace of my wife, I order you, by the virtues of the ring that you serve, to carry me myself to the place of the earth where my palace is, and to deposit me, without shock, under the windows of the princess Badrou'l - Boudour, my wife!"

No sooner had Aladdin made this request than the genie of the ring responded with hearing and obedience and, just long enough to close one eye and reopen it, he transported Aladdin to the Maghreb in the middle of a magnificent garden where stood, with its architectural beauty, the palace of Badrou'l-Boudour. And he deposited it very gently below the princess's windows and disappeared.

Then Aladdin, at the sight of his palace, felt his heart expand and his soul calm, and refresh his eyes. And hope entered him again with joy. And just as he who entrusts some sheep head to the seller of cooked heads is preoccupied and does not sleep, so Aladdin, despite his fatigues and his sorrows, would not take any rest. He only raised his soul to his Creator to thank him for his bounties and to recognize that his designs are impenetrable to limited creatures. After which, he got up and put himself prominently under the windows of his wife Badrou'l-Boudour.

However, since her abduction with the palace by the North African magician, the princess, in her pain at having been separated from her father and her beloved husband, and as a result of all the violence she endured, without yielding anything, on the part of the accursed North African, used to get up from her bed every day, at the first dawn, and spent her time crying and her nights watching, full of sad thoughts. And she neither slept, nor ate, nor drank. Now, that evening, by a decree of destiny, her servant had entered her apartment, to try to distract her. And she opened one of the windows of the crystal room, and looked out, saying: “O my mistress, come and see how beautiful the trees are tonight and how delicious the air is!" Then suddenly she let out a loud cry, exclaiming, "Ya setti, ya setti! Here is my master Aladdin, here is my master Aladdin! He is under the windows of the palace…

— At this point in her narration, Scheherazade saw the morning appear and quietly fell silent.

By the way, Aladdin still has an ace; the Genie of the Ring. Good job for Aladdin because he even hid it to be his chance in case he has a problem. The only problem is that it is not powerful enough to counteract what the Genie of the Lamp did. So they also have a distinction when it comes to what they can do.

At least Aladdin still has a chance to save the Princess against the Maghrebi. Now Aladdin needs to develop a plan to save the Princess. It will not be simple because of Maghrebi's ability, it has knowledge of different types of magic. And because the Maghrebi is also greedy, that's why it is probably persistent to defeat Aladdin.

But let's not deny that Aladdin doesn't have the power, that is the power of love and his determination to save the Princess. Of course, Aladdin's life also depends on this, because if he cannot save and return the Princess to the Sultan, Aladdin will pay for it with his life. So here at this time, Aladdin's situation is "do or die".

At this point, Aladdin has to face the Maghrebi because he will not let him use the lamp for greed and evil.

I was a bit hung up on this chapter, "cliffhanger" as it were; that's why I'm excited to know the next part of the story. How can Aladdin save the Princess? Can't wait to read more about it.

he rubbed the ring that the Maghrebi had given him in the vault.

I totally forgot about that ring as did Aladdin too! He had a source of help with him all the while but instead wallowed in pity and sadness. Also, his faith in Allah helped to soothe him emotionally or he could have killed himself.

I'm happy the genie was able to transport Aladdin to the location of his palace even if he can't bring to palace to him. Doing so would have made the magic lamp useless. I can't imagine the shock of the servant seeing Aladdin right under the window. The princess will be excited but have lots of questions for Aladdin. Though we don't know what transpired between the Maghrebi and the princess in Aladdin's absence. Did the socercer reveal who he is to the princess or what he's relationship is with Aladdin or what the lamp represents?

I can't wait to read how Aladdin will proceed from here. It seems he will require the help of his wife but first he must explain the mystery of all that's happening to the princess. Thanks for sharing this fascinating story. 😊😊

He had a source of help with him all the while but instead wallowed in pity and sadness.

Yes, but how come, during all these years that he had the ring, he never rubbed it?

I too wonder why he never used the magic ring all these while. He preferred to make use of the magic lamp instead. Maybe because the power of the ring is limited when compared to the lamp.

When Aladdin was at a loss, the genie of the ring appeared and helped him solve some difficulties. This reminds me of a Chinese proverb, "When the cart reaches the mountain, there will be a way through", which means that as long as we have determination and perseverance, we will always find a way to solve problems no matter how difficult they are.

When facing difficulties, it is important to maintain confidence and determination, believe that we can overcome challenges, and not be easily intimidated by difficulties. Difficulties are not insurmountable, but require us to search for solutions with diligence. With patience and perseverance, we can certainly find the path to success.

In summary, "When the cart reaches the mountain, there will be a way through" tells us that to overcome difficulties, we need to have firm confidence, strive to find solutions to problems, and maintain unremitting efforts. In the end, we will be able to find the path to success.

As we read in the previous part that the Sultan had said that if the princess did not come within forty days, I would kill Aladdin, so he was very worried and was sitting here thinking. When a person is disturbed by a razor, many thoughts start coming in the mind and the person just sits and thinks. He was thinking of how to find the princess because as we know Allah loves the three marriages very much and He has done everything for her that a normal person cannot do.

Did nothing for self when he did everything to get it and helped people a lot. In today's era, if someone gets a chance, he only thinks about himself and thinks about his own gain, fulfills his own things and fulfills his desires. And he doesn't think about people at all but he was human when something like this came to him, he also helped people a lot, because of which he has a lot of respect in people's hearts, so when you When he said, everyone gathered.

The relationship between husband and wife is very strong and they cannot live without each other after marriage. Then Ila Deen remembered that he also had a ring that he had the same and that it could grant him some of his wishes, but not the way Jennie the Lamp was doing it, so he He asked him to tell him only where the princess was, so he took her there and went to meet her and was very happy.

As we are also Muslims and our faith is very strong that if any problem comes then we should not always take tension in it and say the same time will pass it is just a test. The princess was very worried there and used to cry day and night for Aladin and her father because these relationships are very special.

After reading today's story, the heart is a little happy that Allah Din and the princess meet each other again and see what happens in the coming days, because when they know, then someone will definitely tell a story. The story has become so interesting that I even think about what will happen next several times a day.

Thanks to Allah who gave Aladdin a second chance to meet with his wife, otherwise Sultan was about to kill him for the absence of his daughter and he thought it happen only because of Aladdin, who now become very bad in front of Sultan eyes.

I thought that the after leaving the Sultan palace Aladdin will go to the People in the area of his palace and will ask people that if anybody has saw something unusual on the day when Palace with his princess got disappeared.

But he had some other thing in his mind and that was the ring in his hand, about which i totally forget.
this was the ring given to him by the Maghrabi, but the Work that this Ginie of the ring could be done was limited.

It was not his limit to bring the palace back, but he can take the Aladdin to the palace where the Maghrabi has taken his wife, and that's what Aladdin wanted. Nikkah is so powerful that it makes husband and wife as one person and if one person got away from you, you become very disturb, and you stop caring for yourself.

That's what the princess did, she stop eating, she stop drinking, even she couldn't sleep due to the fear that if she is going to meet her husband again or not.

But now the Ginie of the ring help the Aladdin to reach to palace, She saw her husband and jumped with joy. But how Aladdin will tackle the Maghrabi as now the Maghrabi has the Ginie of the lamp ?

"And, pleasantly surprised by an apparition which he had been so far from expecting"
(I love this surprise)

This surprise was not only for Aladdin, it was also a surprise for us. Yesterday when you told me "He will have help, but I don't think you know from whom" then I was wondering what could be happening that I don't know because I have been following this story from the beginning, but yes you was right, I had forgotten that this could happen.

Aladdin has quickly and easily reached his palace and his wife, which were usurped by the magician (Maghrabi). Finally when Aladdin was worried he got help and this is the best part of the story that I thought because there is a lesson hidden behind it, because when such situations occur in a person's life, when he becomes hopeless, he does not see anything ahead, he is defeated by both the world and the situation, then he thinks of suicide and many cowards do it

But this story told and taught today that when you think there is no way out, it just seems to you, In fact, there are many avenues that we are overlooking, and we only need to find them so that we can progress towards our destination successfully. For example, if Allah Deen committed suicide today so he could never see his palace again, nor could he see his wife again. All this was possible only because he persevered in his difficult circumstances.

I personally loved today's part of the story, I have a lot more to say but let's get back to our story. Aladdin has returned to his palace with the help of the ring and he has to see his princess, now we don't know whether the jinn of the ring will help him in what to do next or he has to do it on his own. As far as I am concerned, when Aladdin needs help of the jinn of ring (gennie), he will surely get help because there seems to be no one else to help Aladdin except him.

Now let's see in the story how Aladdin frees his palace, his magic lamp and his wife from the magician.....

Alladin was able to find the solution to get his wife, he could not bring the palace and everything else to him, but in the blink of an eye he could get to where his wife was.

Now he has to be very quiet to plan how to get to the lamp without being seen.

Could it be that the magician of the ring could not do it?
Will the villain realize before Alladin is near?

They are a question that I ask myself to read this part of the story

The most expected arrived, I was reviewing...

I imagine how desperate Alladin was for his beloved, who didn't even remember the genius of the ring. What he wanted was to die not having his beloved, he thought about suicide, drowning, his love, suffering blinded him mentally.

If that sound of the ring hadn't come out, Alldin I think he would have been thrown home, so much was his suffering.

How sad for the princess, any woman would be kidnapped, separated from her two great loves, Alladin and her father...
Now I am in the intrigue as Alldin will do to not be seen, recurrence the lamp

Clever guy, for sure. Aladdin's reunion with his wife is unexpected and sudden, and it serves as a reminder that life can take unexpected turns. The passage invites us to be open to the unexpected and to have faith that even in the most difficult moments, things can change for the better.

In this story there is an overpopulation of geniuses. But let's go back to the story Aladdin desperately searches for his beloved and returns to take refuge in magic to achieve it. This time it is the genius of the ring who allows him to find her.
But the adventure of our young protagonist is far from being resolved since the magician will not make it easy for Aladdin to return with his beloved to the kingdom of the Sultan.

Love hurts the worst and the world that Aladdin forged came falling down once his wife the princess was kidnapped by the magician. Through luck but also destiny, Aladdin rubbed the ring which revealed a new Genie, and with his help, he was transported where the Palace was taken and under the window where the Princess was held as a prisoner. And from this point on, his courage should kick in and prove his worth once and for all.

When Aladdin thought that there is nothing else he can do and that life is not worth living anymore, he rubbed the ring by mistake which reveled a different Genie. In a blink of an eye, he has put a wish and was teleported to the princess palace. Next should be to save her and return the Princess to her parents and reunite them for good.
