Solution

The character that is not part of "The Thousand and One Nights" is Aladdin. While Aladdin is widely known due to the story associated with him, his tale, "Aladdin and the Magic Lamp," is not originally from the standard collection of stories known as "One Thousand and One Nights." This collection primarily derives from Middle Eastern and South Asian folklore, and "Aladdin" was actually added later by Western translators, notably in the version by Antoine Galland in the early 18th century.

The original collection includes stories like "The Tale of the Merchant and the Genies" or "The Fisherman and the Jinni," which are distinct and separate from Aladdin's narrative. Therefore, Aladdin stands out as the option that does not belong in the traditional canon of "The Thousand and One Nights."
