Prohibition For Muslims Settling In Non-Muslim Countries
On the basis of the following verse of Quran and Ahadith could we utter that settling in A non muslim country is not permissible. What is Sir Ghamidis View on that.
Ayah:
Allah SWT says ‘To those whom the angels gather in death while they are still wronging themselves, the angels will say: “What were you doing?” They will answer: “We were oppressed on earth”. (The angels) will say: “Was not God’s earth so spacious that you might have migrated to settle elsewhere?” Such will have their abode in Hell, a certainly evil end.’
(4: 97)
The Prophet says:
‘I disown any Muslim who lives among the idolaters.’
(Related by Abu Dawud, hadith No. 2,645)
The Prophet also said to someone:
‘I will accept your pledge that commits you to worship God alone, to attend regularly to your prayers, to pay the zakat, offer good advice to Muslims and part with the unbelievers.’
(Related by al-Nassa’i, hadith No. 4,177)
