A new video taking the internet by storm shows a kind gesture by a Saudi policeman who guides an old blind man as he performs his religious rituals at the Kaaba.
The elderly man, accompanied by his son, was struggling to find his way toward the Black Stone, when the kind-hearted policeman rushed to help him kiss it, in a motion that helped to highlight the gentle side of policing shown to visitors of the holy shrines.
The video also showed how the son of the blind man then helped his father by supporting shoulder after he performed the ritual.
