"There is no other choice, taking into account the agreement of the Libyan people and government and that they call on us to act," he told France's Europe 1 radio in an interview aired on Tuesday.
Asked if it would recommence its own action: "We need to do it again, and all of us together."
ISIL released a video on Sunday showing the decapitation of 21 Egyptian Christians, drawing Cairo directly into the conflict across its border.
Referring to the 2011 Libyan war in which France was part of an international coalition backing forces that deposed former leader Muammar Gaddafi, Sisi called it an "unfinished mission".
"We abandoned the Libyan people as prisoners to extremist militias," he said.
Sisi called on militias to hand in their arms but urged weapons to be supplied to Libya's internationally recognized government, based in the eastern city of Tobruk after rivals seized power in Tripoli.
