The phrase "open sesame" originates from the story of Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves in the collection of Middle Eastern folk tales known as One Thousand and One Nights. In the story, the phrase is used to open a magical cave filled with treasures.
This cannot be "A Thousand and One Arabian Nights" since this number is "ten thousand and one."
The story of "Aladdin and the Magic Lamp" is part of the collection known as "One Thousand and One Nights" or "Arabian Nights." However, it was not originally included in the earliest versions of the collection; it was added by Antoine Galland, a French translator, in the early 18th century after hearing it from a Syrian storyteller. The tale has since become one of the most famous stories associated with the collection.
The original title is One Thousand and One Nights. However, it is more commonly referred to as Arabian Nights in English as the first edition translated into English was titled The Arabian Nights' Entertainment.
