I've seen some mischievous interviewers ask if Islam is so great why come here and not stay in Islamic countries. Now see Muslims packing up to go and look for an Islamic environment to live peacefully in. I wish you peace of mind in your search and new destination. Can I suggest Turkey or Singapore.

I may suggest you to live in GCC or Malaysia where you may find good jobs there .

I’ve lived practically my entire life in Canada and I have been thinking the exact same things you are talking about. I have started to look and am very interested in Turkey. I am planning a trip this spring Insha Allah. I would suggest you put Turkey on your list. May Allah guide us in our path. Ameen.

Alhamdulillah that's a good decision but where your heading too I can suggest middle east or india in india specifically Hyderabad first you visit then decide I hope you guys read this comment

May Allah Subhaanahu Wa Taala protect you guys, may He make this hijra easy for you, may He grant you what you seek, may He make you and your chilren from the ones He loves, Aameen! I am from Pakistan and can't ever imagine leaving my country to go live in foreign lands. Alhamdullilah, I feel very safe here. It is a Muslim country, alhamdullilah, although there is a major class of citizen coming up here who'd like it to be more 'open minded' like the West. May Allah protect us from that day. I would suggest that you move to Saudi Arabia, preferably into or around Makkah or Madinah. I believe that these two are the best cities in the world for Muslims. Imagine saying your five daily prayers in Masjid-e-Haraam or Masjid-e-Nabawi! You kids could study there and grow up speaking and understanding Arabic like Arabs. Imagine the understanding and appreciation they'd have of the Quran and Hadith moreover, they'd be able to reap benefits from the work of all major scholars. InshaaAllah. BUT, on the other hand, you guys are Allah's workers there in Canada. You could do dawah, spread Allah's word (you're doing that beautifully already). You'd be doing what the messengers of Allah did. Think of it this way, if you leave, there'll be one less family supporting Palestine and the Islamic way of life in Canada. Maybe, Allah wants someone like you to represent Him there. Allahu Aalam. There's this beautiful piece of Urdu poetry by Syed Sadiq Hussain, it goes something like this ' Tundi-e-baad-e mukhalif se na ghabraa ae uqaab --- Yeh to chalti hai tujhay ooncha uranay ke liye!' translation:- Do not fear the strength of the head-winds (opposing wind) O' eagle -- it but blows only to help you soar higher! All I'm saying is that there's another way of looking at your dilemma. You guys are like a small, bright light in a dark night and can help lost travelers reach safety. Cheesy, I know. Do Istikhara, let Allah give you His suggestion. Follow it and you can never go wrong innshaaAllah. What ever you decide, our dua'a are with you, uhhibukum fi'llah. Wassalam Wa Rahmah!!

Its good decision,may Allah bless ur family and whatever next country u choose to live I hope ur family life easier. I suggest the majority muslim country if u want hear adzan and practice islam.?

I Must solute your courage. I hope other people who are Paper tigers and misuse government benefits in Canada also think on these grounds. My suggestion move to Dubai

I suggest you go to turkey it is a good transition as they are a hybrid culture between Islamic and Western. If you go to a fully Islamic country, you might have some issues with the locals, as an American friend of mine struggled when he experienced living in North Africa, he noticed that people had terrible manners and were dishonest. Maybe Dubai as a second choice, because they enforce rules and regulations... I don't know what else to suggest ?

They want alcohol away because it caused crime. In Denmark and Sweden prisons are full of Muslims and Muslims are causing so much crime that military is suggested to assist police. So let us follow these guys logic...and what do we do with Islam?

May Allah protect your Family.\nI suggest you to Hijrah to Indonesia.\nTropical Country (Rainy and Dry), hundred thousand Mosque, 5 times adzan guaranteed, hundred thousand Islamic school and Uni.\nExciting Ramadhan Tradition, Extra Salary for Employees (THR) etc.

Suggestion for you that you should visit Pakistan i know there is inflation i know the roads have poor condition nut In sha Allah Pakistan will become a better county

Assalamualaikum, i'm your new subscriber, admire you guys a lot for sacrificing the comfort living in Canada for the sake of humanity. If i may suggest you to go check my country Indonesia or my neighbor Malaysia. You can hear calling for pray 5x a day, mosques are everywhere, halal food also everywhere. A lot of choice of education for your children, generally or Islamic ones. And most important thing is the people and government against genocide. We don't have any diplomatic relationship and never acknowledge the state of IsNotReal. Also 1 more thing, living cost here is relatively low compare to Canada or any other countries. Well good luck guys, will follow your journey from this moment on ????

I would suggest South Africa except that the crime rate is too high here.

If you want a citizenship I don't suggest you go to any gulf countries, of course ignore any war countries, Malaysia and Indonesia have nice people and I think you can get a citizenship there, Jordan might be a good choice you might be able to get a citizenship and there are diverse groups of people but the economy and civil status laws aren't exactly that great, now Egypt is definitely a choice but the country is kinda drifting off of Islam in the recent years, terrible economic conditions and I don't think a citizenship is possible really, I'm not much aware of the Arab west countries but they have their pros and cons definitely, lots of people there speak other languages and there's some beautiful culture and a considerable amount of political safety compared to other countries in the region, other than the occupation Palestine would've been a great choice lots of foreigners live here but I'm not sure what requirements you need for that and I'm pretty sure they probably wouldn't let you do so as Muslims, I have very little knowledge but I wanted to share what I can, I hope it helps.

I would like to suggest to you the country of Tunisia located between Algeria and Libya in Northern Africa. It is a beautiful and safe country that while it is an Islamic country it still is a democracy. And moving there from Canada you can live like royalty. Wherever you choose may Allah protect your family always.

May Allah SWT make it easy for you. Amin. I suggest Qatar, UAE or Turkey

Where are you going to move to? So proud of you guys! I totally agree- I so much want to leave the US. We are a couple that are around your parents’ age. We’re encouraging our kids to move away as well. Some health issues are holding us back. But we hear you! The situation in the US is just as horrible. \nMay Allah bless you wherever you go- if I were to suggest places- I’d say Qatar or Türkiye or Morocco \nMay Allah guide you to where is best for you.??????

Assalamualikum \nI couldn’t agree more. \nMy suggestion for countries are Qatar, Abu Dhabi, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia. Morocco, South Africa

As salamu alaikum, may Allah guides you to the best decision and place for your family and use you in the goodness whatever wherever and accept your good deeds ameeen ?\nJust to not be shocked some of your reasonable reasons for looking for more Islamic environment are not available as you wish in lot of Islamic countries.\nOf course there's more daily Islamic things that people in these countries take for granted while Muslims in western countries suffer to get/live and though the gap in cultures is shrinking, which should be a good thing in its principle, but with time of more fetan it sometimes means faster spread of fetan between countries to find some of what your suffering from is there also but maybe alhamdullelah still not in same pace or widness.\nIt hurts do much being in countries whose governments support obviously the wrong side, just keeping mind it's hurting (regardless now of whether hurts more/same/less) when you are in some Islamic countries and not free to express your opinions freely.\nIt's worth mentioning that moving while kids are not yet old enough to get familiar with anti-islamic things around is better in timing.\nOne suggestion that I'm not sure whether is affordable or time wise is good or not or whether you've gone this all the way of trying or not is to continue living in Canada with more surroundings of people of similar core values (by the way not all of whom I mean have to be Muslims, lot of non-Muslims are conservative about education and society pushing their kids to ideas and behaviors against their core values) if you've tried this already and even tried moving within Canada for that purpose and didn't work, then may Allah help you to go for the best.

no..??? Palestine wants to leave??? or are they just all Hamas terrorists is what you suggesting??

The reporter seems to be an agent of Netanyahu. She is suggesting that Gazans should leave Gaza. However, she got the right answer. I am she is angry.

He is not concerned and careless. He did not answer the question. He passed the buck.\n\nHe did not blame Hamas as the instigator who is continuously holding hostages, and using Palestinians as human shield. He should call hamas out who has to lift the weight. How ignorant is he?\nKeep pushing for your own agenda God will push you back.\n\nSo, why are US and UK taking in any refugees, why are they not using this Turkish man's idea and suggestions?\n\nMost of the refugees around the world are coming from Muslim countries. So they should be using this guy's idea. ?????? Israel for ever.

Interesting that his veiled suggestion targets a country they want to commence diplomatic relations with. No Arab country wants to deal with the issue. Syrians are Arab also, why isn’t the Arab world reigning in Assad. Saudi Arabia arms one group of Arabs to fight another group of Arabs. They all have their hands dirty.

How cunning the evil west is to suggest Arab countries take Palestinians. Perhaps the one that needs to be removed from Palestine are the colonial Israelis who stole Palestine.

The absolute nerve to suggest these people should just leave their homeland to bring peace. What a world we live in..?

He has made a good suggestion, but the problem here is that Hamas has control of the West Bank, and they continuously fire rockets on Israel. The real culprit is not Israel, but it is Hamas.

The arrogance of suggesting other Arab countries take these people in when they have a country of their own it's called PALESTINE

Then at least help what you suggested sake of Allah, what kind of muslim leaders you are?

While much of the content of this video is correct, much of it strikes me as opinionated without sources to back up what is being said. For example, I have not seen any evidence that suggests that municipal gouvernements are intentionally preventing the construction of new homes in an effort to prevent the values of older homes from dropping. Certainly not enough new homes ate being built, but for a myriad of reasons, including inflation.

The Audacity of suggesting that they move elsewhere, displacing the burden of them on the neighbors, so that the settlers can grab their land

Absolutely delusional to suggest to simple lift the blockade after what happened on October 7th. These people don't live in reality, I swear.

Canada let in 430,635 people in July and sep population went up 1.1 percent sense 1957 were hey let in 198,000 people Canada keeps letting so many people in and yet can’t fix the housing shortage. Stop letting so many people in government just wants to tax people to death welcome to Canada were homes are overpriced and y are taxed heavily. Cost of everything is skyrocketing. People do come into Canada but u also have to count how many people are also leaving . After living here for a 1-2 people leave . Houses are overpriced most of the time it’s cold. I suggest come here if you can find a good high paying job . Rents also crazy high . New comers leave after they can’t afford to buy a house . When they say there are plenty of jobs they mean like Uber driver or labour jobs. Know Trudeau even said we let in to ma y people the system can’t take it anymore .. heck even I could have told u that ????

WHY DOES NEWS MEDIA THESE DAYS SEND REPORTERS WHO ARE SUPPOSEDLY EDUCATED but Not Intelligent and DOES NOT READ HISTORY before they ask dumb questions and make a fool of themselves ? We all know that Palestinian have some rights based on their Caanan ancestors in that land and so are the Jews ( Israeli Prophets ) ... WHY and How on earth does the Arab world need to accept Palestinians as refugees in their countries ? For what ? The only way is 2 state independent and sovereign . I suggest the News Media get their reporters to learn about Middle East history before coming forward ?

Wow... First time I hear the views of Arab world. Can anyone suggest a good news channel or group?

Lot of educated Indians with degrees go to Canada only to do unskilled low wage jobs. They pay heavy taxes and rent and can't afford food. Living a paycheck to paycheck life. And USA is no better. They have strict anti immigration laws now. So i suggest you educated Indians to stay in India do the kind of jobd that fits your qualifications. And pay your income tax correctly. You know only 2% of Indians pay their income taxes. Tax evasion is preventing the development of India. If you love your country don't do that. Because you ain't cheating your govt but cheating your country and ultimately cheating yourself

Very good suggestion

Thank you for the video. I am looking for an accountant position, any suggestions where to look ? Thank you

Kick these bastards out of Britain. Let them pick their Muslim country of choice then send them there it’s only natural. Muslims never intergrate never and that’s why non Muslims of all faiths and ethnic backgrounds need to stand up and kick them out. BS at its worst when these religious nut cases are allowed to even suggest Sharia BS be allowed in any form. Tolerance is one thing outright intolerance is another.

In a climate when you cannot trust anyone, a digitized global citizen ID or SIN (System Identification Number) will become the norm. If the Vaccine Passport was not suggested, the Digital ID system would have gone unnoticed. Its just now a matter of the seperation of the smart people and the lazy ones. Those who are smart will chose decentralization while the lazy and greedy will choose the centralization.

It's abhorrent to think that anyone suggests Palestinian seeking refugees, it's the very thing this conflict was all about -to displace Palestinian

What kind of upside down insanity are we living in, where criticism is leveled at a state for not doing enough to take in refugees fleeing indiscriminate warfare deliberately aimed at civilians - but zero questioning or accountability is placed on the violent perpetrators creating the refugees, and to even suggest they be criticized makes you a villain….\n\nThe gaslighting is on a whole other level…

This reporter is essentially advocating ethnic cleansing. Imagine, JUST IMAGINE FOR ONE MINUTE if a journalist had suggested the Israelis move en masse to Miami - seeing as the US loves them so much. Just imagine the hysterical response by the pro apartheid and pro occupation mob.

I agree with him.. western nations and others keep saying take them as refugees but Arab nations are not stupid.. they know they are only suggesting take them as refugee so Israel can steal/take the land from Palestinians. Like he said they don’t-want to leave !!

Try to imagine the reporter suggesting ukrainians should leave their land

West try to bring us more problems like how they suggested Malaysia accept the Rohingya refugees.

When so many Palestinian Houses have been decimated by the bombing and the infastucture destroyed there will be thousands in desperate need of rapidly but well built homes if they are to remain on their land. I'd like to suggest something. The Chinese have recently come up with a way to extremely quickly build modular homes that can both be stably stacked high and dissassembled and moved to another location. If the design is made appropriate for the regions climate this could be a great solution. I hope it could be done ecologically and with healthy materials. The longer they go without housing the higher the mortality rate will be. This solution means people could be housed even before any final agreement is made on where the houses will be in 10 or 20 years time.

What a stupid question! Why should you call the Palestinians a weight to be forwarded to other states as refugees? They have their land and should be given their rights in their country. Why don't the sympathetic european nations take away the Israelis and free Palestine? \nWhat arrogance to suggest that the Arabs should take the Palestinians as refugees!

I am from Pakistan and I suggest India economy is very strong so I would suggest to work and stay In your country. India is a good place and if you earn good you will love beautiful life same in Pakistan if you earn good life is good here tok
