A believer in the Christchurch Mosque, probably the first targeted by the Australian terrorist, saw the killer's weapon, but instead of running, he welcomed him with open arms.
He is one of the victims who are hailed for their courage in the face of terror and almost certain death.
An Australian, Brenton Tarrant, was charged with murder after the death of 49 people in two mosques in the South Island town on Friday.
The killer used a camera mounted on his helmet to record and broadcast the mbadacre. A man was heard during the video recording of the mbad shootings saying "Hello Brother" as the shooter approached the entrance of the Al-Noor Mosque on the 39 Deans Avenue, where the majority of the 49 victims died.
People in mourning turned to social media after the horrific attack to honor the man, Fox News reported. News.com.au has not been able to confirm the report.
A Melbourne resident was one of the first people to point out the "crucial details" of the shipowner's final act on Facebook, encouraging people to focus on the victims and heroes – as the unidentified man in the video – rather than on the attackers.
"Maybe this hero was trying to dispel the situation? [Allah] used this man to show the world the kindness that is Islam. That the final act of the man was an Islamic act, a sincere, courageous and warm way to end the violence instead of feeding it. Can [Allah] grant this hero and the rest of the victims paradise of the highest level. "
Naeem Rashid is another victim of the Al-Noor mosque. He was identified by some who watched the scary video as being the man who tried to grab the gun from the shooter's hands.
Speak to the New Zealand HeraldKhaled Al-Nobani said that he was at the mosque at the time of the attack.
The terrorist, who identified himself as Brenton Tarrant, had already shot dead several people in the entrance to the mosque, in the corridor and in the prayer rooms, Al-Nobani said.
"A guy, he jumped for him, tried to take him the gun. He shot him right away. I'm trying to follow him, but I can not, he said.
According to the Pakistani daily Ary News, Rashid and his 21-year-old nephew Talha were murdered during the attack.
Currently, 48 people are treated for injuries, confirmed the New Zealand authorities.
The majority of patients are men aged 30 to 40, a woman in her twenties is "seriously ill" and several children have also been treated.
A four-year-old girl was transferred to Auckland Hospital in critical condition, he said.
Two children remain in Christchurch for treatment for gunshot wounds – a two-year-old boy and a 13-year-old boy – and are in stable condition.
