Is hijrah obligatory for those who feel vulnerable in their religion?

Question: 3021

If a person is vulnerable and cannot feel safe
from temptation in his country, is hijrah obligatory on the Muslim in this
case, and to where should he migrate?

Praise be to Allah, and peace and blessings be upon the Messenger of Allah and his family.

If
the situation is as you describe, and a Muslim feels vulnerable with
regard to himself and his religious commitment in the face of temptations
in his own country, then it is prescribed for him to migrate – if he can
– to a land where he will feel safe.

And
Allaah is the source of strength. May Allaah bless our Prophet Muhammad
and his family and companions, and grant them peace.
