The two of them were opposites ethically. Qasem did not know the meaning of friendship and he preferred the company to Medhat, who had become its sole owner. Qasem lived for pleasure and lost all his money gambling. After that he met a rich man and deluded him about a project that would supposedly make an enormous amount of money after implementation, but the wealthy man learned the truth about Qasem and that he was really just a swindler. He refused the project Qasem was offering. They quarreled and the rich man was killed. Qasem was accused of the crime but in a deception he pinned the accusation on Medhat, who was then arrested and condemned to death. However in the end the truth was discovered, Medhat was found innocent and the real perpetrator received his punishment.
