Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: When a military employee is ordered to proceed to the border, and he does not know the exact mission, but it could be to participate in war, or to gather prisoners, or refugees, or to protect the state, what is he required to do? Does he refuse or participate? And what is your guidance?

Answer:
He must obey and listen, and as long as he does not know, the default, if Allah wills, the default is that he did not go except for something that has no harm. He is required to listen and obey. Yes.
