I always wanted to know what in the world makes Muslims join worthless causes such as joining the forces of the kuffar? Would you join? Why? Do you have muslim friends/family in the forces? be it canadian, uk, american, german, french…
Do you have any feelings for those who lose their lives fighting on the side of kuffar? Yes/No? Why?
A group of Muslim women have laid a wreath at the National Memorial Arboretum in honour of those who died fighting for the UK.
I am a Muslim who served Pakistan proudly. But on many occasions i thought about accepting a role in a Kuffar army. The temptations are great mind you... not just financially but also supposed benefits of dual nationality etc...
Anyway i was posted to foriegn zones but never served the Kuffar. My cousin was with the Pakistan Army united nations task force in Somalia that saved the USA troops from being overwhelmed.... in Mogadishu.
As for those of my people who serve the kuffar armies i dont want to make any offensive comments but my views towards them are not good.
The only time i would serve a kuffar army was if that army was defending itself against unfair invasion by another enemy.
I always tended to be with the weaker side and i always seem to support the underdogs.
This is an interesting topic and i would love to see what others have to say on the matter.
Just for the record, though i qualified to serve other armed forces on two occasions i turned down my postings... and not long after my career ended so i have never served for a kuffar army despite thinking about it and coming close to it.
Many people do not see it as kuffar vs Muslims....................maybe thats why..............they are just fighting for thier country..................
why do Muslims fund kuffar armies then CP? Im assuming ofcourse that you pay your taxes.
i know im guilty of paying taxes on my income but the question is did i do it voluntarily? do i pay taxes voluntarily when I put gas in my car? clothes? i am forced to pay taxes. there's a difference see, one voluntarily signs up to join the ranks vs forced into paying. though for the past couple of years im happy with my situation... (psst there's always ways to live **legally **without paying tax on income). *and no im not justifying anything and neither should **you*.
to the one liner clowns(yes you queer): got anything to add?
shak: why do you find it "demeaning", sorry i don't follow your pc mentality.

i dont know what you mean by living without paying tax... but anyway thats a red herring argument. presuming you pay taxes you do acknowledging funding the same army that you object people serving in. well theres a simple solution isnt there, just dont live there.
presumably you do because it gives you an education or better employment prospects etc. those are often reasons for Muslims who join armies in countries they live in.
