Answer:    The Book of One Thousand and One Nights

Explanation:  This book is about Queen Scheherazade who told a certain story to her king every night to delay her execution because the king intended to execute her. Thus, Scheherazade told the king one story each night but did not finish it to the end, and would postpone the end of the story for tomorrow night when she would finish the started story, and then start a new one, thus delaying her execution.

These are, in fact, medieval stories of Arabic literature that have been produced for a long time, and include Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, Aladdin and the lamp, as well as Sinbad the Sailor, etc. This book is thought to contain recorded stories that have emerged over the centuries as folk tales from the Arab, Persian and Indian national heritage. It was during the time of the Caliph Harun al-Rashid, who was from the Abbasid dynasty, that the capital of the Caliphate was Baghdad, which during his time was an important trading and cultural centre, thus during that time a cosmopolitan city, and as such attracted many merchants. Thus merchants, apart from goods, transmitted stories from different sides and different cultural heritage, and merged into cosmopolitan Baghdad, where they were recorded and preserved in the book mentioned above.
