The highest level of military education has to be available to the army. The intellectual level in the army has to be raised as much as possible. In addition to that every individual in the army has to attain Islamic culture that enables Him to be aware about Islam even if in a general form.

However, military education becomes very necessary for every army and it is not possible for an army to carry out the war without it, nor can it engage in a battle unless it has been educated. Therefore, it becomes Wajib according to the principle: ‘That without which a duty can not be performed is itself a duty.’ As regards the Islamic culture, learning of what is necessary to perform the functions of Islam is a duty for every Muslim, while attaining further Islamic knowledge is Fard Kifaya. This is due to what Al-Bukhari and Muslim narrated on the authority of Muawiyah when He said; “I heard the Prophet (pbuh) say; ‘The one for whom Allah wants good, He gives Him knowledge in the Deen...’” This applies to the army that conquers countries to convey the Da’wah, as it does for every Muslim, though for the army it is of more importance. Regarding raising its intellectual level, this is a kind of awareness which is necessary to understand the Deen and life’s affairs. Perhaps the saying of the Prophet (pbuh)

“The one to whom the knowledge is conveyed may be of more awareness than the one who heard the message in the beginning”, is an indication of encouragement. Also the Qur’an says; “For people who contemplate” [TMQ Yunus: 24]

and He (swt) says “They have hearts (minds) by which they understand.” [TMQ Al-A’raf: 179]
