Ali Baba

Ali Baba, from the famous Middle Eastern story "Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves," is a humble woodcutter who discovers a secret cave where a band of thieves hides treasure, protected by the phrase “Open Sesame.” Using this knowledge, he accesses the hoard, but his brother’s greed and the thieves’ cunning lead to conflict. The story is a familiar tale of curiosity, cleverness, and the moral lessons about greed and resourcefulness, illustrating how ingenuity can overcome danger and how ethical choices influence outcomes.
