Umran Javed father-of-one — who was living on benefits in Birmingham was also convicted of using words likely to stir up racial hatred at the February 2006 protest by the jury at the Old Bailey.
Remanding him in custody, Judge Brian Barker said he would not pass sentence until several other trials relating to the protest had concluded - expected to be in April.
The maximum penalty for soliciting murder is life in prison.
A small rally took place in front of
court at the start of Javed's trial.
David Perry QC, prosecuting, said: "This was not simply a demonstration, it was a recruitment for terror."
Anjem Choudary, a former spokesman for the now banned Al-Muhajiroun organisation, said Muslims were treated as "second class citizens" and could not get a "fair trial".
He said: "Muslims are demonised and vilified.
"This is a failure of capitalism, of democracy and the freedom of speech."
