Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Sometimes I travel to the lands of disbelief to attend international conferences in my field of specialization, and I stay there for days. Does this fall under the prohibition of residing in the lands of disbelief?
Answer:
Traveling to the lands of disbelief is for calling to Allah, it is for trade, for the sake of trade contracts and dealings with companies. There is nothing wrong with that. Yes.
