Little Eisa Hayat is cradled by an uncle yesterday after returning home from a horrific crash in Saudi Arabia that left him an orphan.
The one-year-old’s parents and three other family members died while on a pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca.
Uncle Omar Hayat who comforted the tot at the family home in Newport, South Wales, will now bring him up.
His great-uncle Shazada Hayat, 57, said: “How he survived is a miracle.
“His grandfather grabbed him and held him in his arms so tight he took the brunt of the impact.
"People say if there had been a fly flying around in that car it would not have survived. Our prayers are with him for the future.”
The family were travelling in a taxi which hit a bridge and flipped over.
Eisa, who will be two next week, was the only survivor and suffered a dislocated shoulder, broken arm and ribs.
His mother Bilques, 30, who was pregnant and due to give birth in two months, died in the accident.
Also killed were his father Mohammed, 33, grandfather Shaukat, 56, grandmother Abida, 47, and aunt Saira, 29.
