Hi brother
We were not fighting for any worthy cause, only were kidnepped by criminal on the street of Karachi.
The only issue was, it is right to be killed by them together, or do something hopefully save both lives, but any uncuccessful attempt means sure death for person.
I took the risk, and both survived.
It was gr8 drama, involve myself jumping from moving car, police opening fire and finally freeing my buddy.
Only issue become difficult when people start accusing me of leaving my buddy. Forgetting I would be first one would get shot if failed.
Since you jumped from the moving car you could have been killed in the process. No ?
So here you go , you are a hero for jumping from a moving car at the right moment to save your friends life and yours too.
In last month RD there was a story about two guys who were climbing icy mountains in Alaska , one got hurt , the other could not take him along to safty because in that case both would die. This guy made a decision. Left the other guy in a tent and went to a rangers station and got help to go and retrieve his friend. Was he a cowered to leave his injured and dieing friend or was he a hero to save both lives.
You decide.
The one who takes any calculated risk in this kind of situation is the one who is the real hero. Your friend might have been dumb founded in the situation and could not think straight while you did and saved lives of both of you.
May Allah reward you highly. Ameen.
