Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox organization Шаблон:Salafi The Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaah Association of Australia (ASWJA) was founded by Melbourne sheikh Mohammed Omran.[1] Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaah is a generic term referring to Sunni Islam. Those who adopt it as organisational name do so as adherents of the Salafi movement in Australia, US, UK, and Canada.[2][3]

Overview

ASWJA which is said to be both organised and influential, runs a number of programs for the community and for young people, with its followers striving to emulate Islam at time of Muhammad.[4]

The organisation is alleged to have established ties with Jemaah Islamiah and al-Qaeda.[5][6][7]

ASWJA is linked with the Islamic Information & Support Centre of Australia.[8]

The organisation supports Australian Muslim preacher Feiz Muhammad.[9] In 2007, Muhammad established the Dawah Central centre in Auburn, in a building, subsequently purchased in 2011 by the ASWJA, located behind the Bukhari House bookshop.[10][11]

ASWJA is associated with the Hume Islamic Youth Centre (HIYC) in Melbourne,[12] the Global Islamic Youth Centre (GIYC) in Sydney[13][14] and the Bukhari House bookshop in Sydney.[15] The Bukhari House bookshop has close links to Sydney's Street Dawah preaching group.[15][16] Members of the Street Dawah preaching group have died fighting for ISIS.[17][18][19]

A young Melbourne man who attended HIYC, planned to launch a series of bombings across Melbourne,[20] then travelled to Iraq[12] where he carried out an Islamic State suicide bombing mission in which only he was killed.[21] Another terrorist, now deceased, was one of at least five fighters who grew up close to, or attended the HIYC.[22]

Harun Mehicevic the leader of Melbourne's Al-Furqan Islamic Information Centre was a student of Sheik Abu Ayman. ASWJA provided the funds to establish the centre and installed Mehicevic as leader. There has been a subsequent falling-out between the groups.[23][24]

In May 2015, Mustafa Abu Yusuf, a spokesman for the ASWJA described terrorism as a, "fabricated issue".[25]
