The coming two incidents took place in the US.
As far as I remember, it was 1985, yes, and i was visiting the US. I was visiting an Egyptian friend in a State close to NY (connecticut). Anyway, she dropped me to the train with my large luggage, and warned me not to expect any help while getting off in the station. I was to me picked up by a relative to drive me to JFK airport. I was standing in the train with my head cover and large luggage, while getting off, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, a very distinguished looking man with an elegant coat on, quickly picked up my luggage, till I got off, he just put it in front of me and nodded and took off (he wasnt even a Muslim). I hardly had time to thank him. Sobhan Allah. I was driving my suitcase towards the station main hall where I was supposed to be picked up. An african american came towards me and said salam alykom sister, any help? I explained I was waiting for my relative. Immediately, he said I will wait with u. I told him, what if he's late? He said, then I will drop you to the airport, but I must ensure you are safely picked up. As soon as my relative showed up, he greeted him, explained why he waited with me. and just took off. Sobhan Allah, no matter how long, I still remember those two incidents. Later on I called my friend and explained to her how Allah Assigned those to help me. She was surprised, specially with the train man. :)
