Inside a small house lost in the arid wilderness surrounding the core population of Agrabah, an infant Jafar is seen tending to his dying mother, Ulima, who is very ill. He rubs a wet cloth over her forehead and begs her not to leave her, as he holds her hand in his own. He starts to ask her what he can do, what herbs to use, but she tells him there's nothing left to do. He tells her not to say that and reminds her that she is a healer, she's cured many others, and the dying woman claims to fear she is beyond help, it's her time. "I'm sorry," she tells her worried son, who goes on to ask what he will do and where he will go, with teary eyes. She tells him not to worry, and kisses his hand, before saying he will be cared for. Jafar asks "By who?", to which she responds, "Your father." Tears
