The Delegate Greens pioneer took Representative Hanson to Government Court guaranteeing her tweet, posted in September 2022 on the day Sovereign Elizabeth II passed on, penetrated the Racial Segregation Act.
The tweet was in light of a post by Representative Faruqi, who remarked that she was unable to grieve somebody who she portrayed as "the head of a bigoted realm".
Recently, Representative Hanson gave proof that she didn't know Congressperson Faruqi was a Muslim at the hour of the tweet, and her legal counselors said the answer didn't have anything to do with religion or variety.
They told the adjudicator the tweet fell inside a legitimate exception taking into consideration fair remarks on a question of public interest.
Equity Angus Stewart on Friday dismissed that contention, and said Congressperson Hanson's tweet was an "furious individual assault" with no perceptible remark connected to the issues Representative Faruqi raised.
Equity Stewart inferred that the post was "against Muslim or Islamophobic" and that Congressperson Hanson's huge following engaged others to post comparable messages on X, previously Twitter.
"Representative Hanson tends to make pessimistic, overly critical, separating or derisive explanations according to about or against gatherings pertinently recognized as people of variety, travelers to Australia and Muslims, and to do so due to those attributes," he told the court.
Congressperson Hanson has been requested to erase the tweet in the span of seven days and pay Representative Faruqi's expenses for the procedures.
Faruqi and Hanson respond to judgment
Outside court, Ms Faruqi named the judgment as "milestone", "noteworthy" and "momentous" and that it "will start a recent fad for how prejudice is seen in this country".
"The present decision lets us know that telling somebody to 'return to where they came from' is areas of strength for an of prejudice," she said.
She said, "it defines a boundary that disdain discourse isn't free discourse and the individuals who subject individuals to racial maltreatment won't move away without any consequence".
"It is no time like the present Pauline Hanson confronted the outcomes of the bigotry that she has been executing against Muslims, against minorities, against First Countries individuals for a long time upon many years."
In any case, Ms Faruqi said she didn't anticipate a statement of regret from Ms Hanson.
"It will be a re probation to people like Representative Hanson and others that they will be viewed as liable for the scorn talk that rises out of their mouths," she said."
Accordingly, Congressperson Hanson posted on X that she was "frustrated" by the judgment and that she would pursue it.
"The result shows the improperly wide utilization of area 18C, especially to the extent that it encroaches upon opportunity of political articulation," her post read.
Faruqi's legal counselor says resulting misuse caused 'restless evenings'
Congressperson Faruqi's insight, Saul Holt KC, said the expressions of the tweet told an individual they were not wanted, and it "typically" released comparative tweets from others.
The tweet was making a brown, Muslim transient a lesser individual," he said.
It likewise made Congressperson Faruqi have "restless evenings" because of a flood of misuse.
The court was informed Congressperson Hanson was a notable and productive "sayer of bigoted things" and the adjudicator saw a few recordings in which she offered pessimistic comments about Islam.

Her legal counselors contended Congressperson Faruqi's tweet was intended to incite a reaction. They said their client without a doubt might have communicated her thoughts in an unexpected way, and the reaction wasn't intended to be respectful.
She was talking "logically" when she advised the congressperson to return to Pakistan, they contended.
The court likewise recently heard from a Deakin College master in race relations, Yin Paradies, who finished up the tweet was probably going to adversely affect perusers who shared any or some gathering credits of Congressperson Faruqi, including travelers.
He said it was "very exclusionary" and went to the core of "who has a place and who doesn't have a place".
