Staying in lands of disbelief for work and earnings

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. This questioner from outside the country says: Is it permissible for me to stay in lands of disbelief for the sake of work and earnings, if this is the wish of my parents?

Answer:
Residing in lands of disbelief is not permissible. However, if you travel for trade and return, or to study a specialization such as medicine or the like and return, there is nothing wrong with that.
