What is your guidance regarding the purchase and sale of weapons in the current situation?

Question:
The weapons we took from Iraq are being burned, so we took them from there. We are the army. Is this permissible if the American commander is aware of it? And what is the ruling if he is not aware? Is it permissible for us to take them because they are being burned? Is it permissible to sell them? Is it permissible to buy them? And what is the ruling if we sell them, if the battalion commander, that is, the general commander, has given permission? Is it permissible for us to do so, to give them away and sell them? All of it.

Answer:
Or anything else that the enemies impose, the matter is referred to the army commander. So, if one follows the American army, and they permit it and give the weapons to the soldiers and distribute them among them, there is no harm. Or if they are being burned, there is no harm in taking them. And the one who follows the Egyptian army, it belongs to the Egyptians. And the one who follows the Saudi army, it belongs to the Saudi army; it is referred to the Saudi army commander. And the one for the army of the UAE, or Bahrain, or Qatar, it is referred to him. Whoever has any weapons or other items belonging to the army, it is referred to the army commander. He is the one who handles it, because if he takes it without right, it would be from ghanimah (spoils of war) taken illicitly.
So, it is obligatory for the one who took that or found that to return it to the good commander, and the one in charge of the army, so that he may take charge of distributing it among everyone, or do with it what he has been ordered to do from the side of his command.
