Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: Is moving from a Muslim country where a servant is unable to establish the rites of Islam to a disbeliever's country where he is able to display the rites of Islam called hijrah?
Answer:
Yes, the hijrah to Abyssinia is of this type. They migrated from Makkah, the Mother of Cities, to the lands of Abyssinia because the polytheists were harming them in Makkah. So they migrated to Abyssinia because there is a king there who does not oppress anyone, as the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said. Yes, so they migrated. Yes, and it is the land of the Christians. Yes.
