Dawood’s and Shahzad Farrukh, 45, with “life-changing injuries”.
He has been , two counts of attempted murder, and possession of an offensive weapon.
The Afghan national, who entered the UK via lorry in 2020, confirmed his identity by video from Wandsworth at an Old Bailey hearing today.
The court heard he had been due to leave his accommodation in Uxbridge three days after he launched a knife attack on October 27.
That day, his landlord Shahzad Farrukh, 45, had gone to the annex where he was living and allegedly found him armed with a large knife.
Dawood is alleged to have stabbed Mr Farrukh in the back, under arm and right leg.
Following the attack, Mr Farrukh ran out of the house to seek assistance from neighbours in Midhurst Gardens.
One of the neighbours swung her walking stick at Dawood which caused him to back off, the court heard.
The defendant allegedly also injured a 14-year-old boy before setting upon heroic Mr Broadhurst, 49, who was a stranger to him.
Prosecutor Deanna Heer KC said: “The victim of the murder, Wayne Broadhurst, happened to walk past.
“He was walking his dog when the defendant saw him.
“He attacked him with the knife causing Mr Broadhurst to fall to the ground where he was repeatedly stabbed.”
Ms Heer said Mr Broadhurst was stabbed 14 times – suffering wounds to his neck, chest and side – and died at the scene.
Mr Farrukh underwent surgery for life-changing injuries and remains in hospital.
The teenager sustained injuries to his hands and was discharged from hospital the same day.
Dawood appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ on Thursday, where he refused to confirm his name.
Dawood was arrested near to the scene of the attacks and subsequently charged with the murder of Mr Broadhurst.
Officers said the suspect was treated for a “medical episode” following his arrest.

He was then charged with the attempted murder of Mr Farrukh and the 14-year-old boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons.
Judge Mark Lucraft KC set a plea hearing for January 12 and a provisional trial of up to three weeks from July 20 next year.
Dawood was remanded into custody.
The confirmed Dawood entered the UK clandestinely via lorry in 2020 and was granted asylum and leave to remain in 2022.
He did not live in Home Office accommodation.
In a touching tribute last week, Mr Broadhurst’s family hailed him as a “devoted” and “hardworking man”.
They said: “Wayne Broadhurst was a devoted and hardworking man who spent his life serving his community as a waste services worker.
“He worked hard his whole life, never shying away from improving his community.
“His love for animals showed the gentle heart behind his strong work ethic, and his passion for Liverpool FC was something he loved to share.
“His loss has left a deep void, not only in the hearts of his family and friends, but across the community he quietly cared for.
“Wayne will be remembered for his kindness, his loyalty, and his genuine willingness to help others.
“His absence is felt profoundly, and his memory will continue to live on in our community.”
