What is the ruling on the imam and muezzin taking turns leading prayers in a mosque within a military unit, given the varying numbers of worshippers and the distance from the mosque, and what is the ruling on the compensation they receive?

It is permissible for someone entrusted with the call to prayer (adhan), leading prayers (imamah), or overseeing an endowment (waqf) to appoint a proxy to perform these duties if there is a need, and the proxy is qualified, and this does not lead to a disruption of the work. Jurists have differed regarding the permissibility of the principal receiving the entire wage, but the preponderant opinion is the permissibility of appointing a proxy due to an excuse. For the permissibility of deputization, it is stipulated that it must be for a genuine need and not for profit, that the work is amenable to deputization, that the proxy is competent, and that permission is obtained from the officials and the people of the mosque.
