Re: Stunning Story
^JazakAllah khair everyone for the kind words of encouragement and taking the story positively.
I would like to add here the fact that the "passion" to save someone is more strong and "long lasting" than the passion to hurt anyone, because the former has blessings of Allah (s.w.t) with him and the later has curse of Allah on him. So whoever decides to save someone has this consolation. But it is also good to keep oneself physically and mentally fit and strong to be prepared for any such test of life.
Secondly, geting injured or dieing for a good cause is not a loss, it is success in the life hereafter. There is a beautiful saying of pious man that consoles us that we never are in a loss when we have good intentions for any action we take.
