*Retold by Jane*

*One upon a time, there was a very strong and beloved king. When he passed away, his two sons ruled the country together. Ten years later, the eldest son named Sultan Schahriar the King of the kingdom divided the kingdom into two parts and shared one part with his brother named Schahzeman.*

*Sultan Schahriar had a very beautiful wife whom he loved so much. He loved to be around her and did everything for her. However, after some years she betrayed him. He was very heart broken. The King realized that at the bottom of the women hearts there were evils therefore, he decided every day he would get married to a wife and then the next morning he would kill her. Right after he had this decision, his brother and his people locked him in a castle and decided when he changed his decision they would free him. Years passed, he still kept his determination. One day, a beautiful and wise girl told the king’s brother to let her tell the king everyday a story. After three years with 1001 stories she told, the king’s heart smelt and he changed his decision. Then he could open his heart, got married and lived happily ever after with his wife.*
