Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
This questioner says: What is the ruling on living and working in the lands of the disbelievers, whether that is on a permanent or temporary basis, even though some of its people are Muslims?

Answer:
It is obligatory for the Muslim who is unable to manifest his religion to migrate to the lands of the Muslims if he is able. If he is not able, he must hold fast to his religion and be patient with what he suffers because of his religion. He must be patient with that until Allah brings him relief. It is necessary to hold fast to the religion in the lands of the disbelievers and elsewhere. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh,
