Mina, NU Online
An Egyptian pilgrim carried an elderly fellow pilgrims on his back in a genuine display of Islamic brotherhood and solidarity during this Haj season.<>

“This is not my father,” the pilgrim told photographer Emad Al-Husseini when the latter congratulated him for having gotten an opportunity to serve who he thought was his old man.

“I wish it was my father,” the Egyptian said. His picture, carrying the elderly Haji, was tweeted by Al-Husseini and retweeted at least 10,000 times by people impressed by the man’s exemplary act.

The Egyptian who carried that the stranger on his back has become a hero on Twitter and many people around the world have lauded his kindness and prayed for him.
