Qatari Culture
Ok here's another story.
We went to Al Khor to meet an Arab friend. The friend we went to meet was in deep sleep. So we thought to goto beach and return back when he awakes. It was around 3 in the afternoon. My friend who drives the car is too short and often couldn't see what's right in front of the car. There was a slope near the road and the car fell into it! The car got stuck over a big stone in the front. The car stands with front down into the slop. We tried for 20 minutes and nothing worked.. Then a Qatari in Landcruiser happend to pass by..
He stopped and asked us if we have rope. We said no. He parked his car and then went to nearby construction site and took a long and thin iron rod. It was full of rust. He came to us with it and he asked if we could see a hook behind the car - we looked and we never saw it coz all that part was hard top under the sand. Then he kneeled, and put his head under the little space uder the car. He put the rod through it and spend five minutes wrestling with the iron rod trying to get into the hook. We wer helping him from the other rod. Finally we were able to pull out the car.
He said ok and was about to leave as soon as our car was pulled out. I looked at the man... His thoube was fully stained with sand and crease from under the car. His hand was hurt catching the iron rusted rod. We thanked him alot and asked his name. His name was MISNAD. We understood that he was cousin of the friend whom we came to meet.
May god bless him. I include him in my prayers now.
