The ruling on returning to a country where there are religious innovations (bid'ah) for the sake of one's family and children

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner says: I came from a Muslim country where religious innovations (bid'ah) and wrongs are widespread. I came here, but I was unable to bring my family and children due to financial reasons. Is it permissible for me to return to my country again, given that these religious innovations and wrongs exist there?

Answer:
Return to your wife and children; return for the sake of your wife and children. And try to emigrate from there, as much as you are able, to a country of Islam, yes, or to a country where, at least, you are able to manifest your religion, yes.
