They ask why we’ve focused our efforts on weapons, drones, missiles, etc. The answer is that firstly, it is necessary: a country that has enemies must think of defending itself. Wisdom requires and Islam tells us, “and prepare against them what force you can" (Quran 8:60). Secondly, have other sectors worked less than the defense sector? The work done in manufacturing and infrastructure projects, roads, dams, and similar areas is several times more than the work carried out in the defense sector. Much work has been done.
