Early one morning, Umar was walking to the bus stop to catch a bus to school. A loud, screeching noise suddenly pierced the air. Umar realized
that there had been an accident. A small boy was lying unconscious on the road, and the car that had hit him had already run away.
Umar was confused and frightened. “is the boy dead?” Umar asked himself. However, the boy was still breathing. Umar could see that the boy
had bruises all over his face and arms.
Umar did not know what to do. Few cars passed along this road at this time of the day. The nearest house which he could go to for help was his
own, but it would take ten minutes to walk there. Umar finally decided to stay with the boy until somebody came by.
Time passed very slowly – so it seemed to Umar. The boy was still unconscious, and Umar prayed for the boy to regain consciousness.
Umar sprang to his feet at the sound of an approaching car. He waved frantically at the driver to stop. Umar asked the driver,”You will help this
