After two days miserable and alone, Aladdin accidentally rubs the ring the magician gave him, and a jinn (or genie) appears. In a fit of rage, the magician traps Aladdin inside, still holding the lamp. However, after finding the lamp, Aladdin refuses to send it to him before he leaves the cave. He grants the boys one of his magic rings as protection. There, he instructs Aladdin to fetch an oil lamp from within, not explaining that the cave's spells require the magician to receive the lamp from another. Aladdin's mother also believes the lie, and gives her permission.Īladdin agrees, and the magician leads him to a booby-trapped cave. Claiming to be the boy's uncle, he recruits Aladdin to work with him, insisting he will be able to turn the boy into a wealthy merchant afterwards. One day, an African magician approaches Aladdin while the boy plays in the streets. Aladdin is a truant child, living with his mother in poverty in a Chinese town.
