Whenever Moslems are in trouble, they call Hazrat Abbas (a.s.)
Haj Abolhassan Shekari narrated on 18th Safar 1418
A.H. from Haj Reza Nazari Kahaki:
There is an isthmus known as Zalian between Arak and Borujerd. Once I saw a
trailer with 24MT of iron load stopping in the middle of road steep. The driver
was an Armenian whom I knew. I told him: Monsieur, go aside from the middle of
road. Why you have stood here?! He said: I have a story, and do not go aside
from the middle of road. Then he explained:
I was passing through the steep of isthmus, and braked, but it did not work. I
told: O God! We do not have anyone to intercede for us with You, but whenever
Moslems are in trouble, they call Hazrat Abbas (a.s.). I vowed that if Hazrat
Abbas of Moslems delivers me, I will convert to Islam. Once I saw that the car
stopped. I do not know what happened, but the car with no brake, stopped. I do
not move the car, because first I want to go to Borujerd to convert to Islam.
Then, I will come to move the car and continue my trip.
The Armenian guy went immediately to Borujerd and converted to Islam, and then
came to move the car.
