Hamad, 45, has roots in Baal Mohsen of Tripoli, a mother of four.
Hamad was not swimming when the accident occurred, but was walking on rocks in an area near the beach with his 13-year-old daughter.
The president of the United Association of Social Services, Golda Zogheib, mourned the passing of the sheikh and his members, and said in a statement: “The association mourns his dearest loss, with great pain and regret for his youth, the relations officer of the late Aida Hamad, who was betrayed by death. A flower and the warmth of love for all who knew her. “
“This area is an area for surfing, and when the waves hit the rocks, it’s difficult for anyone to control themselves in the ocean,” said the head of the Lebanese Council in Melbourne, Michael Khairallah.
He added: “The news of Hamad’s death caused a state of grief and shock among the Lebanese and Arab community.”
Police said: “One of the rescuers, 24, and another 48-year-old man jumped into the water to help the four people who were swept into the water by the waves.”
