Aladdin and the magic lamp

Aladdin was the son of a poor tailor named Mustafa. Aladdin's father died when he was very young. Aladdin grew up to be a very idle boy who would do nothing but play all day long in the streets. One day, when Aladdin was playing in the street, a stranger asked him if he was the son of Mustafa, the tailor. 

    "I am, sir," replied Aladdin, but my father died sometime ago". Hearing this, the stranger, who was the famous African magician, hugged Aladdin and said,  "I am your uncle. Your dead father was my brother. Take me to your mother.

Aladdin took the stranger home and told his mother of his newly found uncle. "Indeed, Aladdin," she said, "Your father had a brother, but I always thought he was dead".

On hearing this, he offered to buy a shop for Aladdin and stock it with merchandise. Next day, he bought Aladdin some new clothes and took him all over the city, showing him lovely sights which he had never seen before.

 Next day, the magician led Aladdin into a beautiful garden, a long way outside the city gates. They sat down by a fountain and magician pulled s cake from his pocket, which he divided between them. 

Then he continued their  journey for a long time. Aladdin was so tired that he begged the magician to go back home, but the magician told him some pleasant stories and led him on. At last they come to two mountains divided by a narrow valley. 

"We will go no farther," said the magician, "I will show you something wonderful". Then he collected some dry leaves and sticks and lit a fire.

When it was lit, the magician threw some magic powder in the fire and chanted some magical words. At once, everything shook and the ground opened. Aladdin could not believe his eyes.

"Go down the narrow steps, Aladdin. Where the steps end, you will see a little lamb burning. Put out the fire and bring the lamp to me". He told Aladdin. He also gave a magic ring to Aladdin to keep him from harm. 

Aladdin did as he was sold told. He went down a narrow steps and reached the temple. The place was stuffed with gold, diamond, rubies, pearls and other gems. He put some gems in his pocket. Then he picked up the lamp and started towards the narrow opening above the steps. He asked the magician to give him a hand as it not it was not easy to come out of narrow opening with a lamp in on hand. But magician shouted at him and told him to give him the lamp first.

Aladdin said, pull me out first, then I will give you the lamp. The manner in which the magician behaved with him, frightened Aladdin. He did not give him the lamp. This made the magician so angry that he looked up the poor boy in the cave and went away.

Aladdin sat on the narrow stairs and started crying. By chance his hand rubbed on a magic ring. A genie stood before him. He said, "I am Genie of the ring. I can take you wherever you want to go.

"Take me home," Aladdin said and soon he found himself with his mother. The two of them sold all the gems and lived happily.
