Yes.
Numerous Muslims serve in the Israeli Defense Forces. The majority come from Bedouin families as opposed to the Palestinian Israelis, but there are some Palestinian Muslim Israelis who serve proudly in the IDF. Most Bedouins when asked about whether there is a Muslim injunction on fighting other Muslims, they respond by asking: And what about all of the wars between Muslim States? Circassians are another Muslim minority in Israel who serve in the army, but unlike the Bedouins who volunteer, Circassian males are conscripted mandatorily.
There is a requirement for all Jews, all male Druze, and all male Circassians to serve in the Israeli Army. Bedouins and Palestinian Israelis have the choice to enlist or not.
It is worth noting that although Druze are similar to Muslims, both Muslims and Druze believe that the Druze are a distinct religion.

How has Israel responded to the actions of Muslims?
It depends on what the Muslims in question did. Muslims who follow the laws of the State of Israel do not have adverse Israeli reaction. Many Muslims are actually part of the Israeli government and hold important jobs in the overall economy. Muslims who have tried to attack Israelis or have been successful in doing so are jailed. Whether they are tried in civilian or military courts depends on whether they are Israeli citizens or Palestinian residents respectively.
Is it mandatory for citizens to join the military in Israel?
Yes. Israeli and Druze males are required to serve for three years, and femals must serve for two.

Why do Haredi Jews have to serve in the Israeli Military?

Thankfully, the Israeli Military now has the Nahal Haredi Battalion, where Haredi Jews can join and serve Israel like everyone else.

What is the Israel Defence Forces made of?
The IDF is composed mostly of Jews, both since Jews are the majority ethnic/religious group in Israel and because both male and female Jews are forcibly conscripted into the Israeli Army (unless they have an Ultra-Orthodox exemption). Druze Israeli males and Circassian Israeli males also have mandatory conscription, but the Druze and the Circassians together make up around 1-2% of all Israelis. Bedouin Israeli males often serve by choice, but there is no requirement for them to serve. A few ethnic Palestinians, more Christians than Muslims also serve in the Israeli Defense Forces. There is currently a debate in Arab Israeli society concerning how much Arab Israelis should be contributing to the Israeli Defense Forces.

Can Arabs serve in the Israeli armed serves?
Yes, Israeli Arabs can served in the Israeli armed services. However, they are not required to do so, it's on a voluntary basis. Israeli Arab minorities like the Druze and the Circassians do have mandatory male service in the Israeli army. The Bedouins serve voluntarily, but have a relatively high service rate. It is ethnic Palestinians, especially ethnic Muslim Palestinians, who often do not serve in the Israeli Army. Many of them, especially in the older generation, see service in the Israeli Army as a betrayal of their ethnic Palestinian nature.
