Alex Stewart claimed he was hitting back at the reaction by Muslims to US pastor Terry Jones's threat to burn Islamic books.
The 29-year-old, who works at a university in Queensland, posted his clip on YouTube and said the cleric's stunt was "no big deal" and people "should get over it".
But Aussie Islamic chief Ikebal Patel said: "It's highly offensive what he did to these holy books." Stewart insisted the video was a joke.
