If this person did something to save another, than he is a hero.
My question is, why does the headline identify him as “Muslim”? “Muslim is not used in the headline when acts of terror are committed here and abroad.

Also, would the headline have been “Christian student gives life to save others”? Why is this person being identified by his religion?

I do not believe they used the word “Jew” to describe the professor who was a hero. Holocaust surivivor, but they didn’t say “Jewish hero”.
