Critical comment:
The story of Sindbad the sailor is nothing but imaginary one. Though it is imaginary but it has an attraction to read in one sitting. Sindbad, in the story is described as an honest, intelligent, industrious sailor. He did not stop his journey though he suffered a lot. But the end of his father's fortune led him to make such journey as we get in the story. So, the afraid of becoming poor, he became an industrious and on the whole an efficient sailor. He was telling about his voyages to Hindbad who was a poor man and was grumbling at his fate. So, Sindbad was not only telling his stories but also making Hindbad understand that without working hard you will get nothing.
Moral:
Man is the builder of his own fortune with hard work and making right steps at the right time.
