The djinn demanding the merchant's life in one year Coloring Page

A merchant accidentally kills a djinn's son by throwing a date pit, which strikes the invisible child. The furious djinn appears and demands the merchant's life as payment, giving him one year to settle his affairs before returning to face his fate.

This tale appears as the frame story for the first group of stories in One Thousand and One Nights. It sets up three wise old men who save the merchant by telling amazing stories that impress the djinn enough to spare the merchant's life.

Djinn are supernatural beings made of smokeless fire in Islamic and Arabian mythology. Unlike Western genies, traditional djinn are complex creatures with their own societies, religions, and moral codes, capable of both great kindness and terrible vengeance.
