Shaykh Ibn Baaz (may Allah have mercy on him) wrote:
I advise you that living in a land in which shirk and kufr, and Christianity and other religions of kufr are prevalent, is not permissible, whether you are staying there for work, business, study or some other purpose, because Allah says (interpretation of the meaning):
“Verily, as for those whom the
angels take (in death) while they are wronging themselves (as they
stayed among the disbelievers even though emigration was obligatory for
them), they (angels) say (to them): ‘In what (condition) were you?’ They
reply: ‘We were weak and oppressed on the earth.’ They (angels) say:
‘Was not the earth of Allah spacious enough for you to emigrate
therein?’ Such men will find their abode in Hell — what an evil
destination!
Except the weak ones among men, women and children who cannot devise a plan, nor are they able to direct their way.
These are they whom Allah is likely to forgive them, and Allah is Ever Oft-Pardoning, Oft-Forgiving”
[al-Nisa’ 4:97-99]
And because the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said:
“I have nothing to do with any Muslim who settles among the mushrikeen.”
Being pleased and content with that means loving Allah, giving precedence to seeking His pleasure, being very concerned about following His religion and keeping company with His close friends, which means that one must completely disavow and keep far away from the kaafirs and their lands. Rather, faith as defined in the Qur’an and Sunnah cannot coexist with these evils.
