. The story of Sinbad's first voyage is that, his father passed away when he was 22 years old. ۔ His Father was a good and God-fearing man and He was also the biggest businessman in his city. So Sinbad inherited a lot of wealth. Because of this he fell into luxury. He also paid the right of generosity and amassed wealth with both hands. Gradually he started getting richer and poorer. Then one day he thought that it is not right to waste the wealth like this because If he sit at home and eat, then no doubt that world's biggest treasure will also lost. So he thought that whatever wealth is left, it should be invested in trade and whatever profit is gained, will be used to run the house. The next day Sinbad sold his belongings and left for Basra with his city port with other traders. They were on our way to the Persian Gulf near the eastern islands. During the voyage they landed at several ports, sold old goods and bought new ones. Everything was fine. One day the weather was pleasant. Their ship was speeding along the chest of the sea. Suddenly a small island came in the way. They did not even know that something bad was going to happen to them. The captain was very surprised to see this island and took out a map and looked at it in surprise and said: "There is no island in this place in the map, I don't know where it came from. Isn't this a magic island?" everyone laughed when they heard this. The island was as wide as a playground and soft yellow grass was swaying on it. The captain ordered sailors: "Open the wind and bring the ship closer to the island." Then he addressed them and said: "Any of you who wants to go to the island for a short time, let him come to me." It was a big surprise for them. About twenty passengers landed on the island and started walking here and there. Kebab was their favorite food. Two or four men unloaded firewood from the ship and started preparing to light a fire. They were very happy and joking with each other. When They had just started frying kebabs the island started moving slowly. Then, as soon as they saw it, the island moved away from its place. After that, they felt a strong shock. Everyone thought that an earthquake was coming. At that moment, the captain's voice came: "Come back quickly or the fish will go back into the water; hurry up, hurry up". Then they found out what they thought was an island, was a big fish that came to the surface of the sea to bask in the sun. The arrows of the passengers swam and reached the ship. Some of them started drowning in the middle and Sinbad was still on the back of the fish when the fish started dipping in the water. It was a very strange sight. The fish was slowly going down in the waves and the water was rising all around me. No one had any illusion that it was not an island, but a fish. Sinbad didn't understand anything else so he hurried. A piece of wood was seized from him and brought to the island for burning. The last scene he saw was the noise of the sailors and the ship was moving away from him. There was an earthquake in the water due to the diving of such a big fish. It was a time of great panic. He used to be above the turtle waves sometimes down. After a few hours it got dark and it started raining.
Sinbad was in a bad condition due to his fear. He didn't know where he was talking all night. The land began to appear. The waves slowly carried him to the shore and he lay face down on the wet sand. He was dying of cold, fatigue and hunger. Some water had gone in his mouth too. When sun got a little high, its rays created some heat in his body and he got up . There was an island in front of him. He was so frightened by the incident of the previous day that. He thought it might not be a fish. For this purpose he hit his foot a few times hard on the ground, but there the wet ground. There was nothing. He was exhausted and weak, but he still had the courage to go a little further and satisfy his hunger with a few herbs. When he came to his senses, he started walking and surveying the island. There was a meadow in the middle of the island where some Abyssinians were grazing horses.

Seeing Sinbad, they shouted slogans and ran towards him. These were four or five tall, strong-bodied people. Abys.. were black and their teeth were white. They started talking to him in a foreign language. At first he tried to respond with gestures when they did not understand. Annoyed, he said in Arabic: "Who are you?" An old Abyssinian came forward and answered him in Arabic: "That is what we are asking you, who are you and how did you come to this island?" Tell the whole story. He treated him with great respect and went to their tent and fed him. Then he said: "Young man! You keep your heart strong. You are in the land of a merciful king. We are all his slaves and the royal horses here every day." We will bring you to the court. The king will surely be glad to see you. ”Hearing this, his courage grew and his fear of the past happened. He thanked him. In the evening he took him to the royal palace which was built in the middle of the population. ۔ The next day Sinbad appeared before the king. The king listened to his story and consoled him and said that you are my guest. Stay here as long as you want. Then the king ordered that him be taken care of as a royal guest. So he spent the rest of his life there. He was frustrated and sad all the time, because what he had was lost and so was his family. There was a port on the same island where merchant ships from all over the world used to come and go. The port was so big that due to the crowds of people, it was always like a fair. One day at noon, a ship came to a halt. The sailors anchored and began unloading merchandise. The merchants received their wares and began to go to the warehouses. Suddenly he saw a few bundles on which his name was written in bold letters. He heard that captain was giving orders to the sailors: When he looked at the captain's form, he remembered that captain was the one with whom he had started his journey. He ran to captain and after the initial salutation, said that he is the one who accompanied him. The journey was started by a peninsula fish separated from it. The captain refused to believe him and said that when the fish dived into the water, Sinbad had drowned before our eyes. Sinbad argued with him and told him many signs. Finally captain was satisfied and handed over belongings to him. Sinbad left his luggage there in the port warehouse and walked towards the royal palace. His bus would not run otherwise he would have flown to the king and told him that my merchandise had been found again by chance. When the king heard this, he was glad and wished him well. After that he stayed on this island for a few more days, then with the permission of the king he left. King gave him gifts and sent him away. After that he landed at several ports on the way. Sinbad sold his old goods and bought new ones. After a long time I he returned to his city. When he reached home, the tribesmen welcomed him warmly and gave a great feast. Sinbad carried with his sandalwood, peacock and banyan jars, cloves, cinnamon, rose fragrances, camphor, gold and silver jewelry, silk and silk worms and many other jewelry items. All these goods were taken hand in hand in his city. He made a profit of about a hundred thousand gold coins in trade.
He bought a garden and built a magnificent house in it. In this way he started living a life of peace and tranquility. Soon he forgot all the troubles and sufferings of the past and started living happily ever after.
