Is it permissible to migrate from a Muslim country to a disbeliever's country because of fitnah (trial, discord or temptation)?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : You know what is happening in Algeria here in terms of fitnah (trial, discord or temptation). A brother is asking about migrating to the lands of the disbelievers. He says: "In this country, there are groups that perform the rituals and there is a da'i (caller) whom he names, but the country is ruled by a disbeliever, as you know. Is it permissible for him to go to this country?"

The Shaykh : It is not permissible to migrate except to an Islamic country...

The questioner : Very well, O Shaykh. May Allah reward you with good.

The Shaykh : And may the same be for you, if Allah wills...

The questioner : May Allah reward you.

The Shaykh : And to you, if Allah wills, and peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings...

The questioner : And upon you be peace, and the mercy of Allah and His blessings and His forgiveness.

The Shaykh : You have done well.
