Wa alaikum salaam, Given the unstable political situation in the Kingdom I'd suggest you obey your father, and perhaps once you finish NS Saudi would have sorted through its regional troubles.

As a citizen of Singapore you have responsibilities, you owe a debt to the rest of the city for the protection it has given you as you have grown up.

Doing your NS is not about how it will improve you but how you will be able to defend the city should it need to be defended.

Welcome to adulthood.

Assalamualaikum Brother :)

I think it would be better to listen to your father and take your NS first. I am 19 and currently studying in Yemen, but I have not yet taken my NS. I have a deferment from it for only 3 years. The rules from the MOD is quite strict now, so its almost impossible to not take your NS.

Especially since you plan on studying in the Middle-East, the MFA will continuously be checking and  keeping a close eye on you. They have been contacting me for the past 3 years till now. I believe that finishing your NS is much better since you wont have to face any other problems after that :)

I know its a 2 year course and a total waste of time.. >.> but Singapore is ( as always ) a very strict country and they will never leave you alone. Even if you manage not taking your NS, you will also have problems being an Ustadz once you get back. 

I think being disciplined through NS is not such a bad idea, as that may also be under Allah's Will. If your intention to enter NS is to discipline yourself for Allah's sake, then I find that perfectly fine. Besides, discipline is needed to properly seek knowledge.
As for shaving the beard, you can ask permission from MUIS to not have it shaved, but with a legit reason ( if I'm not mistaken ). 

This is my opinion, as a Singaporean like you. And Im glad that there is someone there who is passionate to study Islam. Work Hard! Big smile

Ps. Have you taken any Islamic Studies beforehand? Just wondering.. Smile
