Re: Guardian Angels
Recently (well.. six months ago which is not so recent) I was driving alone in downtown when my cousin’s car started acting up. I had to immediately pull over to a parking lot near a cafe, desperately hoping someone would help. I was inwardly praying, praying and praying for someone to show up (I can’t get myself to actually ask for help). Didn’t have my phone with me either. I had no other way of getting home. Everyone was in a rush, nobody seemed to notice my struggle of opening the hood (yes, that’s right. I don’t know how to open that). Suddenly I looked to the left, and this middle aged man was seated on the stairs of a garage (later turned out he was the owner of the cafe). I would’ve sworn he wasn’t there five seconds ago! He walked over and asked if I needed any assistance. Thoroughly inspected the issue, and made multiple, back-in-forth rounds to the cafe and the car carrying huge jugs of water. I later came to know that the car was heated up (I’m sure he told me that, but I was too worried to comprehend anything). I guess he was the guardian angel that this thread describes.
This is all I could think of. Other than this, I haven’t quite experienced anything related to safety. I’m obsessed with ayatul kursi, so I definitely have the least to worry about.
Wait, now I’m starting to feel like whatever I wrote has absolutely no relevance to the thread whatsoever. Too bad. I’m posting it before I backspace it all.
For sure it’s very relevant to the thread.
Question for you - did you try to give him some money on the spot as a token of appreciation and if so what did the guy say / do ?
