There was a merchant who used to go through one city to the other, as a tradesman. He used to pass through this valley .. One day as he passed through this valley, holding his merchandise on top of his camel .. When suddenly a thief stops him in the middle of the valley. Alone.. There is no one around, he puts the sword to his neck and he says, “I am going to kill you, and take your merchandise ...” The man said to him, “Please take everything, but spare my life.” And then the thief said to him, “No! I’m going to take your merchandise and I am going to kill you ...”
When the companion found that the thief was insisting on killing him, he said to him, “Okay ... you can kill me and take my merchandise, but please allow me to do one thing, and then you can take my merchandise and kill me ...” He said, “Do whatever you like, but then I’m going to wait for you and then I’m going to kill you.” The man said, “Allow me to pray 2 rakat (Salaah).” The thief made a huge mistake by letting him pray 2 rakat .. so he prayed the 2 rakat. He prayed the first rakat, then he prayed the second rakat .. and in his prostration .. Because the Prophet (sal Allaahu alayhi wa sallam) said, “You are closest to Allaah when you are in prostration, so ask Allaah for the things you want in your prostration”. In his sujood, he said one dua. Its in three sections, parts of what he said, “I ask You O Allaah, by the light of Your Face which has filled the pillars of Your Throne ...” and then he began to ask Him, by all His Glorious names, by His wonderful attributes, and finally He said, “Oh The One Whom responds to the dua of the one in need, Oh The One Whom responds to the dua of the one who really needs Him .. Save me from this thief” and then he said, three times, “Oh The One Who saves, save me. Oh The One Who saves, save me. Oh The One Who saves, save me.”
He did not complete his dua, and then all of a sudden he hears the galloping of a horse, racing so quickly and so fast. On the top of the horse was a man, a warrior, and he had covered his face. With a sword in his right arm ... The thief looked at the warrior, before he could do anything, whack! He chopped and slit his throat, and the thief died... The companion looked up, and hugged him and kissed him, and he said to him “Barak’Allahu Feek (may Allaah bless you)! Where are you from .. Where did you come from ...” He said, “I am an Angel ... From the fourth sky (heavens) ... You asked Allaah in the first part of your dua (and we heard you) … then you asked with the second part of your dua (the sky shook) .. you asked in the third part of your dua (we raced to Allaah) .. So I raced and beat the rest of the Angels to Allaah (Subhana wa ta’la) and said (O Lord send me to save him!). And so Allaah allowed me.. ”
Then the Angel faded away..
