Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: Are the security personnel who are killed by these bombers considered martyrs?

Answer:
This depends on their intentions and purposes. Allah knows best. However, we hope for them the best if their intention is to defend the Muslims and the sanctities of the Muslims, then we hope for them martyrdom. But we do not assert with certainty that they are martyrs. Allah knows best. Yes.
