The stranger was really a magician. He had an evil design. Next day, he took Aladin far away from the city. They came to a narrow valley. It had mountains on all sides. The magician told Aladin to gather some dry sticks. He then set fire to them. The flame arose. He took out something from his pocket. Then he put it into the fire. He spoke two magic words. They saw a big stone with a brass ring. He told Aladin to hold the ring and lift the stone. They saw a staircase leading to a door. The magician then said, ‘Go downstairs and open the door. You will find big halls. In these halls, there are vases full of gold and silver. Do not touch them. Just go ahead. You will find a garden. There you can see a lamp. Bring me the lamp. Go!’
Aladin did as his uncle told him. In the garden, he saw rich jewels hanging in the trees. Aladin took some and put them in his pocket. He also took the lamp. Soon he came back at the mouth of the cave.
The magician was waiting for him. He told Aladin to give him the lamp. But Aladin was tired. So he said, “Please, sir, pull me up first. Then I will give you the lamp.” The magician was very angry. He spoke two magic words and the door of the cave closed.

Dear Riad,
Hope you are in sound health. Today I will tell you a story of Aladin and the wonderful lamp.
Aladin was a poor boy. His father was dead and he lived with his mother. One day a stranger came to Aladin’s house claiming to be his uncle. The stranger was a magician. He took Aladin far away from the city on the next day. He made Aladin enter into a cave to collect a lamp. Aladin took the lamp and some jewels. He asked the magician to lift him from the cave before handing over the lamp. The magician got angry at this and closed the cave’s door leaving Aladin in it. Being alone in the dark cave Aladin became afraid. But with the help of a genie coming out of the lamp he came out and backed his home.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Your friend,
Rifat
