My story is entitled Aladdin found a treasure of the magic lamp at the unexpected place of the island.


Once upon a time, there lived a man called Aladdin the sailor who got shipwrecked alone on an island and had to live on that island all by himself for years.

At the first instance, Aladdin was so grateful for his escape his situation was a dreadful one on that particular island,

It can be noted that the young man Aladdin was wet, and he had no dry clothes to change into and nothing to eat nor drink.

Again, the young man Aladdin saw no future before him but at that moment he was dying of hunger or could be eaten by some sort of wild animals.

The young man Aladdin on that island had no weapon either to hunt and then kill to get food or defend himself against any other creature of some sort that might wish to kill him for food.

Also, the young man Aladdin had nothing but a knife a tobacco pipe and a little tobacco in a box.

These were the only possessions of Aladdin the young man the young man and he was in such great despair at that time.

On that island as night drew near, Aladdin began to consider what would be his fate if there were any fierce and hungry wild animals of some sort within that country or island.

It was during nighttime, when they always come out looking for their prey especially wild animals like the lion.


However, the only plan that that came to his mind was to climb into some sort of a thick bushy tree, where he then resolved to sit down all night.

Again, the next day, Aladdin considered whether he should die due to the fact that he saw no possibility of life at that moment. It was Aladdin who walked a short way inland to see if he could find any fresh water to drink, which he did to his great joy.

Also having drunk and then put a little tobacco in his mouth to prevent hunger on that island he went to the tree then climbed up on its top.

Aladdin then placed himself in such a position that might fall if he should sleep. It was Aladdin the young man who cut a short thick stick for his defense on that island and then settled himself.

In addition, when Aladdin was quite tired out by the events of the day he fell fast asleep and then he slept more comfortably than many could have possibly done.

At that moment, when Aladdin woke up, it was already daylight. It was Aladdin the young man , who found the magic lamp as a treasure on the unexpected place known as the island.

Anytime Aladdin dreams, cleans and rubs the magic lamp treasure, a ghostly spirit known as the Genie appears to solve our problems within the community.

Aladdin cleaned and rubbed the lamp again then he saw all of a sudden, a strange mist that filled the room and from the mist emerged a strange looking man a ghostly creature.

At some moment, Aladdin got tired by the events of the day, he fell fast asleep and then more comfortably than many could have possibly done.

Again, when Aladdin awoke it was already daylight by then. The weather at that moment was good and actually calm.

Again, what actually surprised Aladdin the most was that in the night the rising tide lifts off the ship from the seashore on which Aladdin laid.

He laid not far from the rock which he mentioned. Aladdin was badly hurt by being thrown against it. Also, Aladdin the young man laid not far from the rock which he mentioned he was badly hurt by being thrown against it.

Aladdin was only about a mile from where I was on the seashore.  

As the ship seemed to be upright he thought of the idea that he should go on board so that he might get the necessary things to use in life.

During the afternoon, Aladdin found the sea almost very calm. At the sea, the tide had gone so far out that Aladdin could walk within a quarter of a mile of the ship.

Aladdin felt sad again for he stayed on board and should have been safe.

Also Aladdin after finding the magic lamp which was a treasure on the unexpected island thought about how to return back home.   


However, when Aladdin cleaned and rub the magic lamp which was his treasure a ghostly spirit which was a Genie appeared from the lamp wishing to grant all the three wishes of Aladdin.

The Genie mentioned to Aladdin: My master I am the Genie of the lamp, you have rescued me what would your wish be entirely.?


The Genie also mentioned that You are my master, and your wish is my command. Aladdin often summoned the Genie by rubbing and cleaning the magic lamp which was his treasure.

 Aladdin gave the Genie his three wishes that includes:

1.      To return to his home country as soon as possible.

2.      To be wealthy within the shortest possible time.

3.      Lastly, he wished to become immortal and be granted with eternal life.


As noted immediately, Aladdin told the Genie about his wishes, all his wishes were being granted on that island. Aladdin disappeared through magic then he got to his home country, and it was marvelous in his sight.

Also, Aladdin became very wealthy and then rich in his community. The last wish of Aladdin was also granted that he became immortal and due to that he earned eternal life.

It was Aladdin the young man who was crowned King to rule over the people of his country and he ruled with wisdom, and magic. He got married to the Sultans daughter and had kids he reigned for about hundred years without experiencing death.

The Genie mentioned to Aladdin, you are my master, and your wish is my command. 


Finally, Aladdin was not left alone to rule, he ruled by the help of the Council of elders, the magic lamp treasure and the Genie. In times of war, Aladdin cries with tears in his eyes for the loss of lives and other maimed people.
