内部安全、传播伊斯兰教（da‘wah）的能力以及抵御外敌入侵等问题，都由军队负责处理。

The issues of internal security, the ability to spread da‘wah, and repel foreign attacks are taken care of by the army.

安拉（SWT）命令我们将伊斯兰传播到全世界，并规定了其方法为宣教（da‘wah）和圣战（Jihad），而圣战是法尔德（fard，个人义务）。因此，每位年满十五岁的穆斯林男子都有义务应征入伍，接受军事训练，为圣战做准备。安拉（SWT）说：

Allah (swt) has obligated us to spread Islam to the world and has specified the method as da‘wah and Jihad, and that Jihad is fard. Accordingly, every male Muslim who reaches the age of fifteen is obliged to enlist in the army and undergo military training to prepare for Jihad. Allah (swt) says,.

“你们当与他们战斗，直到不再有迫害，宗教全归真主。”{《古兰经》8:39}

“And fight them (on) until there is no more tumult or oppression, and there prevails justice and faith in Allah, altogether and everywhere.” [TMQ 8:39].

先知ﷺ说："你们要用财产、双手和舌头，去与以物配主的人们作战。"

The Prophet (saw) said, “And fight the people who associate (things) with Allah with your wealth, your hand and your tongue.”.

军队分为两个部分。第一部分是“常备军”，即受雇为国家军队士兵、并从国家预算中领取薪饷的人员。第二部分是“后备军”，由所有有能力作战的穆斯林组成，在需要士兵时被动员起来。

The army is divided into two sections. Firstly, there are the ‘regulars’, who are employed as soldiers of the State’s army and who are paid salaries from the State’s budget. Secondly, there are the ‘reservists’, who comprise of all the Muslims who are capable of fighting, and are mobilised when the demand for soldiers requires it.

一般而言,军队的领导者是哈里发;他任命总司令、每个旅的将军以及每个师的指挥官。旅长和指挥官任命军队中的其余军衔。总参谋部的成员由总参谋长根据其军事素养任命。

It is generally the Khaleefah who is the leader of the army; he appoints the commander-in-chief, a general for each brigade and a commander for each division. The brigadiers and commanders appoint the remaining ranks of the army. Members of the general staff are appointed according to their military culture by the general chief of staff.

哈里发国的军队是一支军队，驻扎在特定的营地中。其中一些营地必须设在不同的省份（wilayaat）和战略要地，另一些则必须保持为常备机动的战斗力量。营地被组织成若干编队，每个编队都被赋予一个编号以配合其名称，例如第1军、第3军，或者也可以以省（wilayah）或区（‘imala）的名称来命名。

The army of the Khilafah is one army, which is located in specific camps. Some of these camps must be located in different provinces (wilayaat) and strategic locations, and some must remain permanently mobile fighting forces. The camps are organised in numerous groups, each one of which is given a number to accompany its name, such as the 1st Army, the 3rd Army, or it can be named after a province (wilayah) or district (‘imala).

在伊斯兰教中，军队的职能之一是履行圣战（Jihad）的义务，即在战场上与卡菲尔（kafiroon，不信者）进行身体上的战斗，无论是进攻还是防御，目的是使安拉（SWT）的宗教（deen）占据主导地位。安拉（SWT）在经文中命令为圣战做好准备：

One of the functions of the army, in Islam, is to fulfil the obligation of Jihad - the physical fighting (in the field of battle) against the kafiroon (disbelievers), be it offensive or defensive, in order to make the Name (deen) of Allah (swt) dominant. Allah (swt) ordered the preparation for Jihad in the ayah:

“你们当为他们（不信道者）准备你们力所能及的武力和战马，以威慑安拉的敌人和你们的敌人，以及你们所不知道而安拉知道的其他敌人。你们在安拉的道路上所施舍的任何财物，都将全数归还给你们，你们不会受到亏枉。”[TMQ 8:60]

“Make ready for them (the unbelievers) all you can of (armed) force and of horses tethered, that thereby you may strike fear into the hearts of the enemy of Allah and your enemy, and others beside them whom you know not. Allah knows them. Whatsoever you spend in the way of Allah it will be repaid for you in full, and will not be wronged.” [TMQ 8:60].

先知（ﷺ）在出征塔布克之前，让穆斯林军队在麦地那城内列队行进，以此展示国家的力量。这一举动使敌人感到恐惧。正如他（ﷺ）所说：“我借着敌人心中所生的恐惧获得了胜利，即使敌人身处相距一个月路程的地方。”

The Prophet (saw) showed the power of the State by marching the Muslim army inside Madinah before they went to Tabuk for war. This action frightened the enemy. As he (saw) said, “I have been given the victory by the terror thrown in the hearts of my enemies even from the distance of one month travelling.”.

这些军队的职能都与维护国家的对外安全有关。

These functions of the army are all related to maintaining the external security of the State.

伊斯兰国的对外政策是向全世界传播伊斯兰。国家传播伊斯兰所采用的方法是通过da‘wah（宣教）和Jihad（圣战）。因此，既然乌玛已将授权交予伊玛目或哈里发来负责这一圣战，那么军队的统帅就必须是国家元首，这一点非常重要。先知ﷺ以传播伊斯兰为基础与他人建立关系。他ﷺ缔结了侯代比亚条约，以便自己有机会在阿拉伯半岛各地传播伊斯兰。先知ﷺ是麦地那的国家元首，在他在世时发生的所有战役中，他ﷺ都指挥军队出征。此后，正统哈里发也同样是下达军队何时、何地作战命令的人。从这些论点可以清楚看出，国家元首是负责领导军队的人。

The Islamic State’s foreign policy is to spread Islam throughout the world. The method employed by the State to deliver Islam is through da‘wah and Jihad. Therefore, since the Ummah has given the authority to the Imam or Khaleefah to carry this Jihad, it is important that the leader of the army be the head of state. The Prophet (saw) established relationships with others on the basis of spreading Islam. He formalised the Treaty of Hudaybiyah in order to allow himself the opportunity to spread Islam throughout the Arabian peninsula. The Prophet (saw) was the head of state in Madinah and he (saw) directed the army to all the battles that took place, during his time. After that, the Khulafa‘a Rashidoon also were the ones to give the orders for where and when the army should fight. It becomes clear from these points that the head of state is the person responsible for the leadership of the army.

通常，军队是向其他国家推行伊斯兰da‘wah（伊斯兰呼唤）的工具。因此，军人必须在智识上得到提升。也就是说，他们必须对伊斯兰有良好的了解，并能够将这一信息传达给其他人。此外，军人必须具有政治觉悟，以便保持专注，不被对手操纵。

The army is usually the tool that opens up other countries to the da‘wah of Islam. Thus, the army personnel have to be intellectually elevated. Meaning, that they have to be well educated about Islam and be able to convey the message to other people. Furthermore, the personnel have to be politically aware so that they remain focused and are not manipulated by the opponents.

军队是向全世界传播伊斯兰信息不可或缺的一部分。因此，军队中的人员必须精通伊斯兰教知识，并拥有坚定的信仰（伊玛尼）。军队必须重视在其队伍中培养具备这些品质的人。拥有坚强信仰的军队必定能够战胜敌人。在先知ﷺ的时代，我们看到了这一点：穆斯林在许多早期战役中人数处于劣势，但在安拉（SWT）的帮助下仍然取得了胜利。例如在白德尔之战中，双方人数比例为三比一；在壕沟之战中，比例为四比一，穆斯林依然获胜。

The army is an integral part of delivering the message of Islam to the world. Its people must, therefore, be highly educated in Islam, and with firm iman. The army must place emphasis on building people with these characteristics within its ranks. An army with strong iman will surely be able to defeat its opponents. We find this to be the case in the time of the Prophet (saw). Muslims were outnumbered in many of the early battles, but with the help of Allah (swt) still achieved victory. This we saw in the battle of Badr where there was a 3 to 1 ratio and in the battle of Ahzab, where there was a 4 to 1 ratio.
