Primary Role

Amer al-Wahwah is a relative of Hizb ut-Tahrir Australia founder Ismail al-Wahwah and a regular speaker at the group's events and sermons. He has been featured in social media posts shared by Stand4Palestine about the University of Sydney encampment, and appears on the group's own podcast, Aqsa Frontline. He is also the administrator of the Stand4Palestine WhatsApp group. At the February 2026 protest against Israeli President Isaac Herzog's visit, he took part in the prayer led by Sheikh Wesam Charkawi before the clashes with police. The Saturday Telegraph (Suzan Giuliani and Derrick Krusche, 7 March 2026) published an image captioned "Amer al-Wahwah seen taking part in a prayer before clashes with police occurred", and reported that relatives Anas, Amer and Mohammed al-Wahwah, "Sydney figures linked to Hizb ut-Tahrir", had been involved in the protests. The same report cited security sources claiming that the Stand4Palestine Instagram and WhatsApp pages, "run by Anas and Amer al-Wahwah", were being used to "covertly leverage" their roles within Hizb ut-Tahrir to organise protests; Stand4Palestine was contacted for comment. Footage of the prayer was also posted on X by Drew Pavlou.

After Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was killed in October 2024 he said Sinwar had "led from the front... either victory or martyrdom, and both are victories" (The Australian, 20 Oct 2024).
