After the Bondi Beach incident, Ahmed al-Ahmed’s cousin said that Ahmed believed his courage came from God and that he has no regrets about what he did. He felt it was his duty to act in that moment, despite the danger to his own life.
Ahmed, a 43-year-old Australian Muslim of Syrian background, put himself at great risk to stop an armed person and protect innocent people nearby. During the incident, he suffered serious injuries, but his family explained that he acted without thinking of himself. His actions were driven purely by conscience, humanity, and a desire to save lives.
Family members also shared that Ahmed’s bravery represents the true teachings of Islam, which emphasize peace, compassion, and the responsibility to help others. They stressed that his actions were not about religion, nationality, or background, but about protecting human life and standing up against violence.
