Queensland police are investigating offensive graffiti, including a Nazi symbol, which was spray-painted onto a wall of a Brisbane mosque.
Offensive words including "F**k Allah" and "No Muslims = peace" were written on the wall of the Bald Hills Mosque in Brisbane's north.
Police said initial information indicated an unknown person had graffitied the building between 8pm on Wednesday and 3am on Thursday.
It is understood the graffiti was discovered by members of the mosque attending prayers in the early hours of Thursday.
Anyone with any relevant information was being urged to contact police.

Labor MP for Sandgate Bisma Asif, the first Muslim politician elected to Queensland parliament, condemned the act in a post on social media.
"This on the back of 15 innocent people losing their lives at the hands of extremists in an antisemitic attack on Sunday," she wrote.
"Frankly, I'm sick of the constant antisemitic, Islamophobic and racist incidents we've had in our community."
Asif said everyone deserved to feel safe in their homes, places of worship and work, and called for people to "stand together" against division.
Cricketer Usman Khawaja re-shared Asif's post in an Instagram story, along with the comment "don't let the haters divide us".
Police investigations are continuing, with about 400 people expected to attend Friday prayers at the mosque today.
In Queensland, it became illegal under state law to publicly display Nazi hate symbols last year.
On Thursday, Attorney-General Deb Frecklington indicated the government was also looking at expanding that ban to other symbols.
