Working for the Police Force - Abu Khadeejah 'Abdul-Waahid

Abu Khadeejah 'Abdul-Waahid (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) was asked whether it is permissible to work for the Police Force.

He (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) gave the following answer:
Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever invites to guidance will be rewarded like those who follow him in the guidance are rewarded, and that will not decrease the reward of those who have followed him." [Collected by Imām Muslim]

I just want to know if it can be said that it is haram to work for fir the police force. If one takes major precautions to avoid compromising the deen of islam.... And infact is sure that he is trying his best not to compromise.... Would it still be impermissible? From the job it follows many youth are cautioned, advised, etc to stay away from drugs, robbing, fraud etc, and many of them are Muslims, on the wrong path.... This is sometimes an opportunity to wake all of the youth involved, up, by the will of Allah through a police officer. Please let me have your response.
I have sent your enquiry exactly how it is written to Ustadh Abu Khadeejah. If I recieve a reply, I will post it here, in shaa Allah.
