Security agencies and police are investigating an Islamic preacher who warned the Australian government was "pushing Muslims into a corner" over the conflict in Gaza, adding that jihad was the "solution".
Weeks after the nation's spy chief warned against the risks of divisive rhetoric, the man - identified in a video as "Brother Ismail" - accused the government of "creating a threat to the national security system".
In a sermon delivered at the Al Madina Dawah Centre in southwest Sydney, the man was filmed calling Prime Minister Anthony Albanese a hypocrite and comparing the Hamas attack on Israel to Indigenous Australians' response to colonisation.
