A 16-disc set of his sermons, shown in Channel 4's Undercover Mosque. On it: "We want to have children and offer them as soldiers defending Islam" and "There is nothing more beloved to me than wanting to die as a mujahid".
The AFP examined the sermons under sedition and incitement laws and removed the DVDs from his centre. Acting Attorney-General Kevin Andrews: "The importation of hatred into Australia is totally unacceptable." The Islamic Council of Queensland called the comments "reprehensible".
Feiz Mohammad is a Sydney Salafi preacher who co-founded the Global Islamic Youth Centre in Liverpool, Sydney, in 2000, and continued directing it after moving to Lebanon.
His "Death Series", a 16-disc DVD set of his sermons, became public in January 2007 after the British Channel 4 documentary Undercover Mosque showed it being sold. On the DVDs he said: "We want to have children and offer them as soldiers defending Islam", and "There is nothing more beloved to me than wanting to die as a mujahid" (Reuters, 19 Jan 2007, quoting the Daily Telegraph). He told parents to put into children's hearts "the zeal of jihad and the love of martyrdom", and referred to Jewish people as "pigs" (ABC, 19 Jan 2007).
The Australian Federal Police investigated whether the sermons breached sedition and incitement laws, and in January 2007 removed copies of the DVDs from the Global Islamic Youth Centre. Acting Attorney-General Kevin Andrews said: "The importation of hatred into Australia is totally unacceptable." The President of the Islamic Council of Queensland, Suliman Sabdia, said: "I agree that the comments are reprehensible" (ABC).
In 2010 he called for the "decapitation" of Dutch MP Geert Wilders.
In April 2013, after the Boston Marathon bombing, NBC News and CNN reported that a YouTube account linked to bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev included videos of Feiz Mohammad, described by NBC as an Australian preacher criticised for "calls to train children as jihadi warriors". Reporters noted at the time that the account had not been firmly confirmed as Tsarnaev's.

The Evidence Project is an independent, investigative timeline archive — every case, every document, every date, laid out in order so the full picture is there to see. Each entry links through to primary sources, footage, and documents so nothing here rests on our word alone.
We are not aligned with any political party, movement, or side. We hold every figure and organisation on this site to the same standard of evidence, regardless of who they are or what they believe — not because we're neutral on the issues, but because the facts, once verified, don't need us to take a side for them.
A note on what this site is — and isn't
Inclusion here documents a verified event, connection, or statement on the public record. It is not an accusation, and it does not imply guilt, association, or wrongdoing beyond what the cited sources themselves establish. Where a claim is contested, unconfirmed, or needs context for fairness, we say so.
What this is about: a small network of individuals and organisations who promote extremism, and the institutions that funded, platformed or overlooked them. It is not about Muslims. Most Muslim Australians reject these views, and many have spoken out against them at real cost to themselves. They are part of the solution.
This site exists so people can read, learn, and reach their own conclusions — not so it can be used as ammunition against anyone. Do not use it to harass, threaten or target anyone, whether a person named here, their family, or any community. If you're looking for a reason to target someone, you won't find it built into this site; you'll only find the record, and what you do with it is on you.
This is a conversation Australia needs to have, and we welcome that conversation.
If we got something wrong, tell us and show us the source — we'll check it and correct it publicly. Tips and documents are welcome too: contact@evidenceproject.au
