An unknown man attempted to rob New York deli owner, Mohammed Sohail and was quickly taken by surprise. Sohail first pulled his own gun out and the robber fell to his knees and began to cry and apologize. <\/p>\n

At that moment, Sohail did the unexpected and dropped to his knees and began to pray with the robber. He then gave the robber $40 and a loaf of bread and sent him on his way. <\/p>\n

But the story does not end there. Sohail’s kindness was recently rewarded with a letter of apology and a fifty dollar bill, fully repaying him with interest<\/i>. The still unknown robber thanked Sohail and told him that his act of kindness caused him to turn his life life around and brought him back to his faith. In his letter he said, <\/font>“Now I have a new child and good job make good money staying out of
\ntrouble and taking care of my family. You gave me forty dollars thank
\nyou for sparing my life. Because of that you change my lif<\/font>e.”
<\/font>
\nBless you, Mohammed Sohail, for your generous heart. <\/p>\n
