"The Two Kings and the Two Labyrinths" is a short story by Argentine writer Jorge Luis Borges, first published in February 1936. It was later included in El Aleph under the title "Los dos reyes y los dos laberintos". It deals with a number of Borgesian themes: labyrinths, supposed obscure folk tales, Arabia, and Islam. The story is itself referenced in-universe by characters of Borges' "Ibn Hakkan Al-Bokhari—Dead in His Labyrinth", also found in The Aleph.
