G-d calculates everything for the good, and prepares salvation in advance, even before the trouble comes. As it is written (Megillah 13b), "The Holy One, blessed be He, does not strike Israel unless He first creates a cure for them."
The amazing story before us was told by the Gaon Rabbi Gamliel Rabinowitz in the name of a faithful man from the dear ones of Karta Deshupriya. This Jew who lives in one of the neighborhoods of Jerusalem, the Holy City, makes sure to participate in the Daf Yomi lesson every day, without missing a single day. By nature he is a consistent and organized person, and he took upon himself this study with great seriousness, always showing up every day with dedication to the lesson, no matter what! – on the other hand, he also invests time and energy in understanding the page well, and repetition and memorization of the material, so that it will be well organized with him. Until we become one of the strongest among the participants of the lesson, both in quantity and quality.
One day the man was obliged by a mitzvah to travel out of the city, and he was very sorry that he would have to lose the beloved lesson that gave his life so much for him. But he had no other choice, the matter could not be delayed, and it could not be held at any other time, and he had no other choice but to go on his way. Before leaving, he approached the Maggid Shiur and told him things as they were, that he was a complete rapist in the matter, and asked for help and advice on how he could make up for the missing lesson. The Maggid said to him: "In the previous cycle of Daf Yomi shiurim, record here on tapes all the shiurim that I gave, I can give you the tape from the shiur of this daf in the previous cycle, and in this way you will be able to fill in the gaps. The man was happy for the good advice, so that at least he could fill in the gaps in listening to the tape.
The journey for which he was required was a long way, and he had to cover many miles on his way, and sit at the wheel for a few hours in a tiring night drive. "After all, I got a whole tape to listen to," the man thought, and I could take advantage of the long way to listen to the Talmud lesson. Therefore, before his journey, our knowledge sat down and "passed" a little over the page according to the amount of time before him, so that later on, during the journey, he would be able to listen to the shiur and understand the explanations flowing from the Maggid shiur Ha-Mocha. When the appointed time came, the man got into his car and set off, after he had moved away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and integrated nicely into the quiet and relaxed intercity traffic, tucked the tape of the lesson into the tape recorder in the car, and while driving he listened to the lesson, which was said tastefully and knowingly. He traveled in rest and reconciliation, and took pleasure in the words of the Torah, which were illuminating and joyful. The road was quiet and smooth, there was no problem on the wide, repaired road, but suddenly he heard the siren of an approaching police car, immediately cleared the lane for the police car legally, and turned right into the side lane on the side of the road, to allow the police car to pass. However, for the time being, less than half a minute had passed, and here it was emerging from the bend of the road in the same lane in which he had traveled comfortably, but a few moments ago, a huge truck that was speeding across the smooth road, he had not noticed it at all before, the truck driver apparently did not notice it either, because the road was almost empty, and here the truck flew at lightning speed and passed by him. In the blink of an eye, it became clear that the deviation that had deviated at the very last moment from the lane had saved his life and property, and if he had not stayed in the same lane, his car would have been crushed and crushed with him like a garlic peel!
After the initial shock, the man suddenly stopped the car on the side of the road, all excited and amazed by the power of the miracle that G-d had performed with him. When he came to his senses, he began to look for the location of the police car that sounded the siren, for which he had swerved from the path of danger at the very moment after the last one. He was surprised to see that there was no police car here, the road was very thin at such a late evening, and there was no reason for a police car to move at such an hour on this intercity road. The man wondered, but he could not find an answer to his astonishment. After inhaling a little air from his lungs, and calming down from the astonishing case of a "near-accident" that would have ended in certain death, he thanked God again and again for saving him, and therefore returned to the vehicle to continue his journey to his destination. Of course, he did not forget the tape that suddenly stopped in the middle of the lesson. After a while, when the driving returned to its calm and the movement flowed as usual, he turned on the tape again and returned to the pleasant lesson emanating from the tape. to return to the place where he lost contact. After a minute or two, he suddenly hears the sound of the siren siren blowing the silence again, at first he really shuddered with panic, what is happening here today? Where did all these sirens come from, one after the other?- But when he looked around him and saw clearly that there was no police vehicle in the area, he suddenly realized that the sound of this siren was emanating and rising, no more and no less, from the tape of the lesson itself!! - To his astonishment, the mystery was solved before him, he immediately realized that the sound of the siren that had been heard earlier was not from any police vehicle, but that it had come from the tape of the lesson at exactly the right moment, and saved his life!
The next day, when he returned to Jerusalem, he told the Maggid a shiur about the great miracle that Hashem had performed with him, thanks to hearing the tape of the shiur. They asked him if he knew the meaning of this alarm that was sounded in the middle of the lesson. At first, the Maggid did not know what it was about, how did a police siren reach the tape of an innocent shiur on Daf Yomi? The riddle was obscure to both of them. Therefore, the Maggid asked the shiur to open the tape of the shiur and play it to him, in astonishment When they sat down next to the tape and reached the part of the siren that was being heard, it turned out that the phenomenon was very simple and very common, probably on the very same day that the shiur was given seven years ago, in the middle of the shiur, a police car drove past the synagogue with a loud siren, which must have interrupted in the middle of the shiur. But now it has become clear that the hand of Divine Providence has prepared salvation for the people of Israel, who were never willing to miss a daf yomi shiur, another seven years before he needed it! To teach you the nature of the eye of the Blessed One, that the Blessed One always precedes the healing of the plague. And that sometimes, even by hearing a simple siren in the middle of a daf yomi shiur, it is possible to save a person's life, after seven full years. Astonishing.
