Working in government defense forces.

Q; I want to know Whether KAS, IAS are permitted in Islam or not......IAS = Indian Administrative service.....
KAS = Kashmir Administrative service.....
As the administration here isnt in accordence with the laws of Glorious Quran....so is it permussible to appear for such services as it includes police services as well.......
i will be eagerly waiting for your reply......

A; All-Praise is due to Allah,
Indeed those whom work in these jobs are Haraam (prohibited), because they all involve giving pledges and covenants to the government of that particular country. Thus all these actions are shirk (polytheism), hence such actions can only be directed to Allah because they are actions of worship and worship is Allah's right over His creation.

Allah says: And fulfill the covenant of Allah when you have taken it, [O believers], and do not break oaths after their confirmation while you have made Allah , over you, a witness. Indeed, Allah knows what you do.

[An-Nahl: 91].

Narrated Mu'adh bin Jabal: the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, "O Mu'adh! Do you know what Allah's Right upon His slaves is?" I said, "Allah and His Apostle know best." The Prophet said, "To worship Him (Allah) Alone and to join none in worship with Him (Allah). And Do you know what their right upon Him is?" I replied, "Allah and His Apostle know best." The Prophet said, "Not to punish them (if they do so)".

[Bukhari, Volume 9, Book 93, Number 470].

And Allah knows best...
