King Shahriyar was so afraid of female infidelity that he chose a new wife for himself every night and executed her in the morning – so that no one could deceive him!
This continued for a long time until the wise Scheherazade became his wife.
At night she told him such amazing stories that the king eagerly awaited the continuation and postponed the cruel execution for another day...
