What is the Islamic opinion about people making Hijra to non-Muslim countries, other than it being a necessity?

Going abroad for an absolute necessity, as for a medical reason, trade, or education which is not available at all in your country, for a specified period and not having any niyyah to settle there, is justifiable and acceptable. However, people migrate because the facilities might be better in the other country; e.g. having means to an education in your country but rather, they say; “We have it, but it’s not that good as there...” The point is that over there, you have all kinds of other harms as well and this is what needs to be considered.

To accept what is available within a relatively Islamic environment, where your deen is safe, is better than putting your youth or children into a circumstance which is unsafe. Responsibility needs to be taken by both, the youth and parents about what decision is made by them, although the huge responsibility falls on the parents. This generally happens because of huge ignorance about Islam.

There are many cases that came forward where children have changed their deen for marriage, visas, or get trapped by the hidden agenda of missionaries. A huge sin is what they will carry, and what they will be accountable for on the last day.

May Allah safeguard our Emaan, guide us and keep us on the straight path. Ameen!
