Summary
While Aladdin uses his Wisdom of Solomon to keep Judar at bay, Alibaba ventures deep in Kassim's memories and clashes with Kassim to save his dear friend.

Synopsis
Using Wisdom of Solomon, Aladdin absorbs the Rukh inside his body. He explains to Alibaba that he has to pierce Kassim with his sword. When Alibaba is not sure, Aladdin reassures him by using Har-Har Infigar that changes into flames that repair Alibaba's sword. As Judar rains ice spears, Alibaba manages to dodge them and stab Kassim. Then, Kassim absorbs Alibaba. Aladdin uses his Wisdom of Solomon to tap into Judar who collapses after remembering some of his dark past.

Inside the Black Djinn, Alibaba speaks with Kassim who states that he has despised him ever since. Kassim wonders why he is the only one stained by the darkness while Alibaba is radianting with the light. Kassim remarks that he had the blood of his worthless father flowing in his veins while Alibaba has his mother's blood in him. He shouts that he will fight against his fate. Alibaba punches Kassim and explains that he had done things that he is ashamed. The two power up their respective Rukhs and attack each other. Kassim slips in and knocks Alibaba down. Kassim states that everything was decided for them at birth.

In Kassim's flashback, Alibaba observes Mariam's last moments to the event where the slums are being scorched to the ground. Ithnan arrives to assist them to fight against their accursed fates. Kassim stabs Alibaba in the chest with his Black Rukh, and some of Alibaba's White Rukh flows inside Kassim. As a result, Kassim hears Alibaba's words that shatter his blade.

Touched by Alibaba's words, Kassim realizes what he has done and that he can never be like Alibaba. When Kassim cries, his world brightens up, and the Black Djinn begins to fall apart. As Kassim is sucked towards the tunnel, he shares his memories of killing his father for having the idea of making Mariam a prostitute with Alibaba. Running towards Kassim, Alibaba tries to grab Kassim's hand and yells out that they are friends. In the palace, Ithnan quickly grabs Judar and retreats. Aladdin watches Alibaba holding and bawling over Kassim's dead body. High in the skies, Masrur strikes Ithnan with his Household Vessel. Then, Jafar breaks Ithnan's barrier with his powers. While Ithnan falls down, Sinbad powers up his magic and electrocutes Ithnan in a powerful flash of lightning. Sinbad notices only one doll has fallen. Deep in the sea, a snake swims from Ithnan's disemboweled head. Meanwhile, the men and women of Al-Thamen discuss about the Balbadd incident.

Back the palace, Aladdin points that the dead is always with them in their hearts and in the Rukh's flow. Alibaba's parents appear before Alibaba, and Aladdin tells everyone to reunite with their loved ones. Mariam whispers to Alibaba, and she holds hands with Kassim. Then, all of the deceased citizens fly towards the great Rukh. Morgiana embraces both Aladdin and Alibaba.
