Police are investigating a radical Islamic figure who cited scripture about ‘killing Jews’ and said Muslims can have neither Christian or Jewish friends.
Abu Ousayd, who the Al Madina Dawah Centre in western Sydney said was a ‘Ustadh’ (teacher), also defended a visiting speaker who appeared to call for jihad (holy struggle or war) saying there was ‘nothing to condemn’.
In his new lecture at the Bankstown centre Mr Ousayd employed traditional anti-Semetic stereotypes to label Jews ‘a very mischievous people’ who use their economic and media power to ‘oppress the weak’ and start wars for their own gain.
Citing examples drawn from Islamic texts and the Bible, he accused Jews of ‘scheming’ to pit Muslim against Muslim.

‘Peace is bad for the Jew (they say) ‘there is no business for us’,’ he said.
‘There goes our media, there goes our Hollywood blockbuster films.
‘They need the fighting and the infighting of the Muslims to continue in order to thrive in order to grow.’
He said there was no difference between Jews who did not support Israel and ‘Zionists’ who do.
‘Even these ultra-orthodox Jews that you see today that are against Israel and hate the Zionists… when the Messiah comes they are still going to fight Muslims,’ he said.
‘Don’t be fooled these people are still your friends.
‘Towards the end of times, when the Muslims will be fighting the Jews, the trees will speak, the stones will speak and they will say ‘oh Muslim, oh believer, there is a Yahud (Jew) behind me, come and kill him’.’
He said Jews were always claiming ‘Muslims are making things up’ and ‘arrogantly’ think they are ‘better, they are the best’.

Mr Ousayd accused Jews of practicing ‘Jewish Kabala magic’ such as ‘fortune telling and witchcraft’ to gain ‘authority over the weak’, which they continue to do through their business interests.
‘You find that their hands are everywhere in businesses. We should be boycotting Coca-Cola and Nike and McDonald’s and Starbucks and the list is long,’ he said.
‘They would give a loan to people that were in need that was impossible to pay back again.
‘This continues today where we find the majority of banks are owned by the Jews who are happy to give people loans knowing that it’s almost impossible to pay it back.’
Of the fighting in Gaza that was prompted by the bloody incursion into Israel by Hamas on October 7, Mr Ousayd said the Jews were showing ancestral ‘cowardice’.
‘Like the cowards that they are today, hiding behind their tanks, hiding behind their large walls,’ he said.
‘But they can’t deal with a little group of people from us who are fighting them.’
He said there could be no final peace between Muslims and Jews.
‘Yes, we do hate those who are normalizing relations with Israel but again you find it’s them plotting and scheming against the Muslims even today,’ he said.
‘Believers, do not take the Jews and the Christians for your allies – they are the allies of each other and any among you who takes them as an ally shall be regarded as one of them.’
He argued that Muslims had previously gone to war over just one of their number killed by Jews and now there approached 10,000 casualties in Gaza, where Israel has launched a full assault.
Under NSW racial vilification laws, it is an offence to incite hatred against a group based on their race.
NSW Police said they are ‘aware of the comments and have commenced an investigation’.
‘As those inquiries are ongoing, we aren’t in a position to provide further information at this time.’
The Centre denied Mr Ousayd’s comments could be construed as racial vilification saying they were all accurately sourced.
‘What he said is no different to what is found in the books of history, the Bible of the Christians, the Jews and the Talmud,’ a centre spokesperson said.
‘A simple Google search will prove this. Based on what I’ve said, are the Jewish community breaking NSW laws?’
In another video posted on Wednesday Mr Ousayd, who was called a spokesperson for the Madina Dawah Centre, defended a sermon that also sparked a police investigation.
In a video posted to YouTube by the Al Madina Dawah Centre, Brother Ismail (pictured) said he does not care if his actions leads the government to deport him and called Anthony Albanese a ‘hypocrite’
In late October visiting preacher ‘Brother Ismail’ delivered a sermon, also posted online.
‘If the Australian government likes it or not, if the ASIO likes it or not, if they want to deport me from Australia or not. The jihad is the solution,’ Brother Ismail said in the video titled ‘Media response to reality of the world with Palestine’.
‘The youth is now boiling with emotions and rage towards what is happening to their brothers and sisters in Palestine.’
Mr Ousayd said Brother Ismail did not say ‘anything that was wrong’.
‘He didn’t say anything that was Islamicly wrong and he didn’t say anything that was wrong according to the law of the land which we live in,’ Mr Ousayd said.
‘There’s nothing to condemn.’
He said the centre allowed lecturers the ‘freedom to speak their mind’.
‘We are not living in North Korea. We are not living in Russia. The last time we checked we are living in Australia and there is still some freedom,’ he said.
‘So we have given them the right to say what they need to say.’
He said the centre would step in and tell a lecturer if they said something ‘Islamicly’ wrong or against the law.
Meanwhile another Islamic teacher from Western Sydney has stated that none of the 1,400 Israelis, including babies and children, that died in the October 7 Hamas attack were innocent because they had ‘provoked’ Palestinians by taking their land.
In an online video Nassim Abdi, who in 2018 said women who did not have sex with their husbands were committing major sins before calling those comments a ‘slip of tongue’, says Hamas victims were ‘antagonsing oppressed people for decades’.
‘These are not innocent people on holidays,’ he said.
‘They are accepting payments to take Palestinian land, to take Muslim land.’
He argued that the people living near the Gaza border ‘were infuriating the Palestinian people, they were people that were there to cause problems, to provoke and to oppress by taking over their land’.
‘They were people that made the choice to go back to Israel, to get citizenship there and to live there knowing that it is illegal under international law … do not say they are innocent victims.’ he said.
He also claimed there were no videos of victims being tortured or raped as had been reported.
However, he conceded there were videos of Palestinians stepping on dead Israelis.
‘We have seen them stepping on them 100 per cent,’ he said attributing this reaction to ‘decades and decades of anger’.
‘I am not justifying, not saying it is OK,’ he clarified.

He also asked his listeners if they had seen any ‘ugly’ Israeli female victims, claiming they had all been attractive as a psychological ploy because it was easier to sympathise with attractive people.
‘But if you see an attractive woman broken down you say “stop the car, I’m going to help her”.’
He alleged all the women shown as Hamas victims looked like Victoria’s Secret underwear models.
‘They put these women there for what reason? To show that “we are beautiful women, we are free women”,’ he said.
‘They put them there in their skimpy clothing. “We are just like you in the West, we enjoy the same freedoms, the same liberal understanding as you guys. Help us, be with us, we are one against these savages, these beasts”.’
Mr Abdi has been contacted for comment.
