English:

Question #1376:

Is it permissible for a Muslim to immigrate to a non-Muslim country?

Answer #1376:

There is no objection to it provided that it does not involve fear of detesting and deviating from one’s own religion. Having preserved his faith and observed caution, it is incumbent on the immigrant, to the best of his ability, to defend Islam and Muslims.
