[1][2] The heroes of the film are the shoemaker Maruf and the daughter of the Caliph, Esmagül, who despite falling in love with a young man, nevertheless forces him to fight for his own happiness.

Desiring to learn the further events, Jaffar puts it aside, whereupon Scheherezade tells him that Princess Esmagül who is standing behind him, is to take possession of the miracle ring.

Those threatened by the dragon immediately wish themselves back and Jaffar is turned into a vile lizard to be thrown to the animals.

Unwanted by Esmagül, the ring later returns to the possession of Maruf, who then flies with the princess on the back of the giant jinn to his homeland.

After Esmagül was awakened from her sleep by Maruf, the recovering jinn flies the two lovers to the shoemaker's hometown, where they spend their lives in joy and happiness.
