Do the security forces inside cities qualify for the virtue of the muharib (the one stationed at the border)?

Question:
May Allah reward you, Your Eminence, father. The questioner says: We previously mentioned the concept of ribat (stationing at the border) and the muharib. Regarding our brothers, the security forces inside cities who provide protection, does the hadith apply to them that if one of them dies, the reward continues for him, and the saying of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that two eyes will not be touched by the Fire?

Answer:
Yes, these people defend the sanctities of the Muslims and protect the lands of the Muslims, so they have the reward of the mujahideen (those striving in the path of Allah). If one of them is killed, he is a martyr. As for the reward of the muharib, that is specific to the one stationed at the borders. However, these people are recorded with the reward of the mujahideen if their intentions are sound and their aim is to protect the Muslims and defend the Muslims. So they have the reward of the mujahideen, and if one of them is killed, he is a martyr in the cause of Allah, Mighty and Majestic.
