Do the mujahideen who receive salaries receive a share of the war spoils?

Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, do the mujahideen who receive continuous salaries receive a share of the war spoils, or are the war spoils exclusively for those who fight for the sake of Allah and volunteer?

Answer:
They have a right to them; the war spoils belong to the mujahideen who were present at the battle or were in the service of the mujahideen. The war spoils are theirs, a reward for their action. As for zakah in the cause of Allah, it means that the mujahideen have a share of it. They said: If they do not have salaries from the public treasury, they have salaries from the public treasury, so they are not given from the zakah. But if they do not have salaries from the public treasury, they are given from the zakah.
