Blue Genie: Giddy up, slowpoke, what's keeping you?
Aladdin 'Al': Nothing. Well, something, but I'll tell you later.
Abis Mal, the Chief of the Thieves: Who are you?
Aladdin 'Al': My friends call me Al, but you can call me Aladdin.
Abis Mal, the Chief of the Thieves: Gah - hurt him.
Aladdin 'Al': I can't just stay in the palace! There's too much to do, too much to see.
Jafar: The street rat? Still alive? No.
Iago: Reality check. Jafar is large and in charge.
Jafar: Iago, you betrayed me and allied yourself with my enemies! Then you turned on them as soon at it was in your best interests. That's what I love about you. You're so perfectly predictable. A villain through and through.
Aladdin 'Al': So Genie, how does it feel to be free?
Blue Genie: Seriously? I love it.
Answer: The Genie says his powers were diminished after Aladdin freed him.

Wouldn't the same thing happen to Jafar if Jafar was freed?
Yes. The same thing would happen to Jafar if Abis Mal did free him but, as seen, Abis Mal never wished for Jafar to be free. Jafar was still a genie because he still had the bands attached to his wrist.
