12 strongest militaries in the 'Muslim World'

[500]

well i seriously doubt Egypt is stronger than Pakistan , I even doubt they are even as strong as KSA.
also i even doubt more if you can call Israel a Muslim country

Egypt's air force and army is much stronger than Pakistan's.

only militarily :-

Pakistan (with nukes, Chinese support, tries to mach up with Large India hence powerful military)
Iran (Robust and developing local defense industry, theocratic shia powerhouse with local allies in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Afghanistan ... and pretty successful regional influence)
Turkey (Local defense industry, proximity to western tech)
KSA (theocratic influence and cash)
Egypt

Reality :-

Iran or KSA ... Rich and theocratic countries with ambitions across borders. Both have strong allies, Iran can make, KSA can procure. Both can fight wars on other countries turfs.
Pakistan (nukes and support of China)
Turkey
Egypt
Morocco
Syria

In next 15 years:-

1) Iran (extremely powerful local defense industry with allies in form of a Shia empire or a crescent)
KSA (wont loose its influence unless MBS causes royal family to be dethroned)

2) Pakistan will have 300+ nukes by that time and extreme proximity to China in terms of military and politics will turn it into a nightmare for its enemies on battlefield.
3) Turkey

Iran has extremely weak air force. So basically all Iran can do is terrorism and bombing helpless Syrian peasants.

These lists are childish and the discussions that follow are also equally childish.

The truth is you cannot give militaries and overall ranking. They have different objectives, different capabilities. For example Afghanistan does not have a navy. Assumed for a minute they had an awesome airforce and army, like the best the world had ever seen, surveys like this would rate them lower for not having a navy, even though it's a land locked nation.

Pakistan has nuclear weapons, a strong army, but our navy and airforce are not that well equipped. Having said that we can hold off the much more powerful Indians, because of the consequences of a nuclear conflict. At the same time if the US wanted to attack us, our nuclear weapons would be next to ineffective, as we can't reach them. Does that make us strong or weak? Do you consider real enemies or hypotheticals?

It has a dynamic missile program Jew.

 

[Hakikat ve Hikmet]

As per the Kuran-i Kerim, all Prophets (PBUT) identified themselves as Muslims, and all of their True Followers also termed them as Muslims!!!

2: 131. When his Lord said to him, "Submit (i.e. be a Muslim)!" He said, "I have submitted myself (as a Muslim) to the Lord of the 'Alamin (mankind, jinns and all that exists)."

2: 132. And this (submission to Allah, Islam) was enjoined by Ibrahim (Abraham) upon his sons and by Ya'qub (Jacob), (saying), "O my sons! Allah has chosen for you the (true) religion, then die not except in the Faith of Islam (as Muslims - Islamic Monotheism)."

2: 133. Or were you witnesses when death approached Ya'qub (Jacob)? When he said unto his sons, "What will you worship after me?" They said, "We shall worship your Ilah (God - Allah), the Ilah (God) of your fathers, Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), One Ilah (God), and to Him we submit (in Islam)."

2: 134. That was a nation who has passed away. They shall receive the reward of what they earned and you of what you earn. And you will not be asked of what they used to do.

2: 135. And they say, "Be Jews or Christians, then you will be guided." Say (to them, O Muhammad Peace be upon him ), "Nay, (We follow) only the religion of Ibrahim (Abraham), Hanifa [Islamic Monotheism, i.e. to worship none but Allah (Alone)], and he was not of Al-Mushrikun (those who worshipped others along with Allah - see V.2:105)."

2: 136. Say (O Muslims), "We believe in Allah and that which has been sent down to us and that which has been sent down to Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob), and to Al-Asbat [the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)], and that which has been given to Musa (Moses) and 'Iesa (Jesus), and that which has been given to the Prophets from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and to Him we have submitted (in Islam)."

2:140. Or say you that Ibrahim (Abraham), Isma'il (Ishmael), Ishaque (Isaac), Ya'qub (Jacob) and Al-Asbat [the twelve sons of Ya'qub (Jacob)] were Jews or Christians? Say, "Do you know better or does Allah (knows better...; that they all were Muslims)? And who is more unjust than he who conceals the testimony [i.e. to believe in Prophet Muhammad Peace be upon him when he comes, written in their Books. (See Verse 7:157)] he has from Allah? And Allah is not unaware of what you do."

egypts airforce especially its f16 is no more than a dummy airforce
in a real war Egypt air-force will get destroyed partially due to its reliance on neutered western weapons and partially due to its reliance on west for its maintenance of its air-force.
more or less any weapon bought from the russkies and chinese would be the best assets for the Egyptian airforce as they will not be prone to any sabotage .
