The questioner : Is it derived from the action of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), his retreat to the cave and his distance from the filth of shirk (associating partners with Allah), that a person should distance himself from the polytheists and their calling if he fears for his own safety?
The Shaykh : Yes, indeed, there is no doubt. This is of the same category as the obligation of hijrah (migration).
The questioner : But is he a person of knowledge and calling?
The Shaykh : If he prefers, he descends, he isolates himself sometimes and descends sometimes.
