The Bondi hero who wrestled the firearm off a gunman has a long recovery ahead.
Syrian-born Ahmed al-Ahmed has catapulted to international fame for intervening during the terror attack that killed 15 and injured more than 40.
A GoFundMe page has raised more than $2 million to help the 43-year-old father of two, who's in hospital, shot in the shoulder.
Australians for Syria Association spokesperson, Lubaba Alhamidi Alkahil says there was a lot of fear the Muslim community would get the blame.
"But who was the one who rushed to help? Who endangered himself? It was the Muslim one, right? So he proved that we are not terrorists."
