Saudi security guard holds umbrella for little girl praying under the sun at Grand Mosque

Syed Shayaan Bakht, Gulf Today

A humane gesture by a security guard for a little girl praying at the Grand Mosque in Makkah has won the hearts of millions of people on social media platforms.

The security guard saw the child praying under the sun, so he did his best to hold an umbrella to block the sun’s rays giving her some shade and relief from the heat.

The girl was seen greeting the guard after completing her prayers.  

The girl’s identity is not known, but netizens have appealed to the authority to honour the man for his noble deeds.
