Pavlo Lapshyn stabbed Mohammed Saleem in Small Heath, Birmingham on 29 April, five days after arriving in the UK.
On Monday, Lapshyn, 25, admitted murder as well as plotting to cause explosions near mosques in Walsall, Tipton and Wolverhampton in June and July.
At the Old Bailey, he was told he would be jailed for life.
Mr Saleem was stabbed to death, just yards from his home, after attending prayers at his local mosque in Green Lane.
Lapshyn, from Dnipropetrovsk in Ukraine, was living in Birmingham while on a temporary work placement in the city when he killed Mr Saleem, a grandfather of 22.
He later planted three bombs near mosques in the West Midlands as part of a campaign he said was motivated by racial hatred.
He was arrested almost a week after an explosion in Tipton. 'Hated non-whites' » | Friday, October 25, 2013
