This question is pointless.
Enlisting in the United States Army means you are under contractual agreement to execute the orders of those appointed over you. It is specifically asked at key points in the recruiting process whether you have anything that would prevent you from deploying or taking another life in self-defense. Fraudulent enlistment is a punishable offense.
Islam does not restrict murder per se - Islam only restricts wars of aggression against other Muslims. Capital punishment is the norm in Islamic law.
This question is completely and utterly divorced from reality.

Your religion didnt restrict this before you joined? Just because you are in the Army it doesnt mean you will kill someone.

You should be able to get out if something is making you go against your beliefs, but I think that something would have had to change. Like, were you Muslim when you joined or did you just change your religion?

If your religion restricts you from killing another human, why did you enlist?
If muslims can't kill people by religious restriction, who the hell are we fighting?

well right now theres no draft so you are not obligated to be in there....I don't think you'd be able to get out they would be like WHy the hell did you join in the first place? If there was a draft I don't know if that would help because some people would use it as a ruse or something

How did you get in the Army? That has not stopped them from killing before!

If that were really the case, (Islam restricts killing of other human beings), then we wouldn't be at war with radical Islam at the moment.

Too late for that excuse, pal. Leavenworth Kansas has living arrangements for any towel head who thinks he doesn't have to abide by the UCMJ.
In Leavenworth, they have real special treatment for people of other religions. I believe they are real senitive to the needs of Islamic residents.
