A Pakistani delivery rider won the heart of Dubai crown prince after a video of him removing a concrete block from a busy street went viral.

Abdul Ghafoor Abdul Hakeem could be seen removing two fallen bricks from a busy intersection. The video of the heroic act was posted on social media which caught the attention of Crown Prince Hamdan bin Mohammad.

"An act of goodness in Dubai to be praised. Can someone point me to this man," Hamdan asked on his official Twitter handle. Later, he commented on his own tweet saying that the "good man" has been found.

The good man has been found. Thank you Abdul Ghafoor, you are one of a kind. We will meet soon!" he wrote on the micro-blogging website.

Later, the Dubai crown prince personally called the Pakistani expat.

“I could not believe my ears,” an elated Abdul Ghafoor told Khaleej Times moments after getting the call of his lifetime. He was out for a delivery when the call came.

“The Dubai crown prince thanked me for what I had done. He also said that he was out of the country right now and promised he would meet me as soon as he is back.”

According to the Talabat rider, within minutes of Sheikh Hamdan posting the video, he got a call from the Dubai Police confirming his contact details and informing him that the Dubai crown prince would like to speak to him.

Talabat rewarded his actions by giving him a ticket to fly back home so he could spend time with his son.

When asked when he would be travelling back to Pakistan, the rider said with a chuckle: ”Now I will go only after meeting the Sheikh.”

Kinda reminded me of 2011 when I first visit my brother in Dubai, one night I was walking to a restaurant and while waiting for traffic light to turn red, I noticed something moved in the middle of road, because it was night time it was hard to see but while I was looking it moves again and than I realized that it was a bird in middle of road unable to fly, I was like oh that bird is dead and I was told to be careful in Dubai roads because cars drive fast, but in that spilt second before the light turn green i walk to bird but bird try to avoid me and at that point traffic signal turn Green and I saw cars start coming towards me and I quickly grab the bird and rush to the side of road and now I don't know what to do with bird so I found a empty box and put it in behind a shop.

Unfortunately no one record me at that time

Abu Darda reported: The Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “Whoever pulls something out of the roads of the Muslims that harms them, Allah will record a good deed for him. Whoever has a good deed written for him, Allah will admit him into Paradise by it.”
