Choosing Between a Muslim Land and a Non-Muslim Country When You Can Relocate

Assalamu alaykum, I’m French-Algerian, born and raised in France, so it’s all I’ve known-my life is here. But my spouse and I both have Algerian passports, so we could move to Algeria if we wanted. I’m wondering, as Muslims, should we really try hard to make hijrah and settle there? Jazakum Allahu khayran for any advice.

Honestly, if your intention is for Allah, He will make it easy. Algeria isn't perfect but at least you don't worry about your daughter's hijab being banned.

Wa alaykum salam. Make istikhara, brother. I know brothers who moved to Algeria and found rizq, and others who stayed in France and kept their deen. It depends.

Brother, if you can make hijrah, do it. Raising kids in a Muslim land with adhan and Islamic values is priceless. I left France for Morocco years ago and never looked back.

It's not easy, akhi. I moved from Netherlands to Turkey and struggled with language and work at first. But my iman and my children's deen are way better now.
