”I hope he will be fine. I saw him last night. He was alright but we’re waiting to see what the doctor (says).”

Ahmed’s father reflected on his son’s bravery:
“When he did what he did, he wasn’t thinking about the background of the people he’s saving, the people dying in the street. He doesn’t discriminate between one nationality and another. Especially here in Australia, there’s no difference between one citizen and another.”

New South Wales Premier Chris Minns visited Ahmed in the hospital and wrote on X: “Ahmed is a real-life hero. Last night, his incredible bravery no doubt saved countless lives when he disarmed a terrorist at enormous personal risk. It was an honour to spend time with him just now and to pass on the thanks of people across NSW. There is no doubt that more lives would have been lost if not for Ahmed’s selfless courage.”
