Supplication for the Security Forces and Cooperating with Them

Question:
This man says: The security forces are making blessed efforts in this country, especially in dealing with this misguided group. We want a word of encouragement for them and a supplication for them. May Allah preserve you?

Answer:
We ask Allah to assist everyone who supports Islam and the Muslims and defends their sanctities. There is no doubt that the security forces have performed, or are performing, the duty of defending the Muslims and the sanctities of the Muslims. They are among the sons of the Muslims, praise be to Allah, so they will receive reward, if Allah wills. It is our duty to make supplication for them. Then we know that security is for everyone; in reality, we are all security forces. We cooperate with them. What is security? It is for us all. So why do we not cooperate with them in what we are able to do to repel evil and ward off harm from the Muslims? Security is for everyone, and it is the duty of everyone. Yes.
