Is it obligatory for Muslims residing in Western countries to display hostility toward disbelievers?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, the father, the questioner says: Muslims residing in Western countries work among disbelievers daily. So, may Allah reward you, do Muslims residing in Western countries who work among disbelievers daily have to display their hatred for the disbelievers they work with, or do they hide it for the benefit of their work?

Answer:
As much as possible, as we told you, as much as possible. If he is able to be frank and display it, he displays it. But if he is not able and fears for his life from them, he commits the lesser of two harms to avert the greater. However, as much as he is able, he should migrate to the Muslims, so he migrates. Yes.
