context_section_description: Prince Ahmed (Arabic: الأمير أحمد‎) is the youngest of three sons of the Sultan of the Indies. He is noted for having a magic tent that would expand so as to shelter an army, and contract so that it could go into one's pocket. Ahmed travels to Samarkand city and buys an apple that can cure any disease if the sick person smells it. Ahmed rescues the Princess Paribanou (Persian: پریبانو‎, romanized: Parībānū; also spelled Paribanon or Peri Banu), a fairy or female genie.
