mashallah on you brother and sister you understood a lot that ''candian'' muslims dont get...i love canada and its people but the decline is obvious...anyway...wish the best inchallah

Americans are suffering as well with inflation. It's sad. Wish there was a true answer to how to resolve this. But, so far no one's been able to solve the issue. ?

I love Canada ?? I enjoy its winter and summer and try to make use of each day. Now, you are right with so many things you have mentioned in the video, and if you can’t see a change you wish to happen, then it’s your choice to stay or leave. I hope you all the best and hope peace for all.

I would say try Turkey if you can purchase a house you could get your citizenship there and it is mostly a Muslim country. Something to think about it might be a place to look at . I’m from the US not a Muslim but have many Muslim friends who live in Turkey it safe and clean and I’m not sure of the education but safe is always a big one for me. And a place that respect who you are . I wish you both all the best in finding the right place. May you always be blessed.

Wish you all the best , and all the ummah may Allah make it easy for us this temp journey

Wishing you the very best in life.

Why do people move to a Christian society, and expect a muslim society? I hope muslims move back to their Islamic countries, the culture is too different. The west has had its Christian culture destroyed by mass immigration and multi-culturalism, it’s sickening. I wish you the best.

I wish your family all the barakah and khair.

I’m just a stranger but I wish you all the best and may God bless your next step/ journey ??

William, going back to Pakistan? Which City are you going to? I live in Lahore. Wishing you and family goodness and health.

I am a Christian, and I have been married to an amazing North African (a practicing) Muslim woman for the past 17 years. By the way, we have lived in five different majority Muslim countries, but Malaysia is by far the best one of all. We have friends who moved to Europe from North Africa and the Middle East. However, Canada is definitely better than Europe, the Middle East, or Pakistan or any other Muslim country for any Muslim man or woman. We have very close Pakistani friends who moved to Canada from Dubai, and they will never consider moving back to either the Middle East or Pakistan. I don't agree with the Saleh family's reasons for leaving Canada, other than the cold weather. I wish them happiness and safety wherever they go. FREE PALESTINE!!

Best Wishes for Family My Allah Bright Future and More Sucsse you and Allah Bless you ❤\nFrom: Pakistan

Salam am a Muslim 16 year old and I lived in Saudi ever since I was one but moved to Australia at 11 because of how expensive the residence card was my dad lived there for over 20 years and mum for around 11 and we viewed it as a truly amazing country its very safe and people are very helpful and kind everything id also islamiclly led when you're walking in the streets you can litterly feel the islamic spirit am talking about 4/5 years ago I dont know about now but it was the best we used to go madina every eid mecca was close so we went when we could went roude trips around Jeddah and jizan its the best think about it your kids growing up in a society where there is no alchahol, lgbtq,dr**s and islamaphobs its a qiute exspensive place but its truly amazing. I wish you all the best Your sister from Eritrea

I’m in United States right by Florida is very hot I wish I Was in Canada lol but the inflation part is the same here my family in Bosnia which is a predominantly Muslim country tells us about how much cheaper everything is food housing health insurance n the sense of community over there compared to here

Assalamu alaykumu Saleh family Alhamdulillah a well thought through decision. May Allah SWT make it easy for you insha'Allah. I strongly advise you to look into moving to Brunei Darussalam in Southeast Asia. We lived there for 21 years teaching English in a government school and my wife teaching in an international school. I'm quite happy to send you links and contacts if you're interested. Wishing you the best of luck brother. Wasalam

Just a note, if the countries that you are considering, you have only visited as a tourist, a longer stay (maybe 6 months or so) may give you a better idea on what it actually is like.\n\nI am from (or rather, my family is, and I still have a majority of my family in) one of the countries you mentioned, and while every single thing you mention about it is true, many of the reasons you are choosing to leave Canada for is also applicable, though it may not be apparent to a visitor.\n\nPulling out and setting new roots are never easy, even if it may be the right choice. Wish you the best of luck in the next step of your journey.

I was born here. I'm not of a particular religion. Rather I choose to accept everyone's right to believe what they want. I too see the deterioration of this country and I especially don't want to be under a government such as ours. I would very much like to learn more about the Muslim faith in English if possible. I wish I could come with you!

Good decision, I wish you the best inchalah

I'm canadain as well and we moved 101/2 yrs ago for the same reasons from 5 to 2. Wish u best of luck. Putting ur kids first is the right thing to do.

All the five points are okay. Where ever you move there are challenges. If one is getting a job in the middle east, go ahead for short term. Muslims have still different problems in every Muslim country. Good luck and best wishes and prayers.

Wa Alaikumussalam \nWish you all the best to Saleh Family. Can't disagree with you on all the points you raised. I wish I could leave too with my Family but have some serious constraints that don't allow me to leave.

Subhan Allah, I am deeply touched by all your 5 reasons ❤❤❤❤❤\nMay Allah subhanhu wa Tala give you success and make your children coolness of your eyes ❤\n\nI wish to move back to my home country too ?

I leaved in Canada for over 20 years and noticed the drastic changes you mentioned. I still have 4 of my kids in Canada, They are grown up and have their own families now. As I traveled to few places for professional raison I always been on family status because I wanted to be close to my wife and 6 children. The best place I liked is the sultanate of Oman. It’s a conservative Islamic environment and people are very respective, very nice and welcoming. The only thing that bothers a bit is the heat in summer time but other than that it’s the best place in the world. By the way 3 of my children are planning to leave Canada to one of the gulf countries and I wish them good luck. May Allah guide you to the right path and place to rise your kids and practice your faith at ease.

Qatar? Kuwait? Turkey? Malaysia? UAE? These are on my wish list. I live in The Republic of Ireland.

Totally agree\nI took the jump and left the uk and back home to libya. I have 5 kids and its a step i wish id taken years ago.\nTotally worth it\nGood luck

Subhanallah. I feel lucky to have been born in Indonesia. Even though there are so many people who live as Islam ID, not practicing Islam as a Muslim should do things like pray and so on. But we have an Islamic environment here, with many mosques (except in Bali, where the majority of the people are Hindus).\nIt's cheap to live here, but not with the education. Even international Islamic boarding schools are so expensive here. If you can get a good job in Jakarta with a good company, you better stay here. \nI'm not sure it's cheap or not, but you can pay min 250 to 430 dollar per month for nanny or helper to clean the house. \nAnd for the weather, we only have two. Summer and rain. Sometimes it rains in the summer. And sometimes it's very hot during the rainy season. Hahahaha. Best wishes for your family.\nOr in Malaysia, they also have a good environment for Muslim children. I have some friends in Malaysia. Food is also cheap and similar to the Middle East. I like Malaysian food. In general, I enjoy halal food. ❤\nBismillah, I hope the best for you guys.

May the almighty Allah bless you all and your family's insha'Allah this will be the best decision and sacrifice you are making I just wish I to living in the Western it will never be too late for me and my family especially the kids toooo???????.....

I'm not Muslim but I have family and extended family that are. I'm in Ireland, there is a large Muslim community in Dublin. My grand nephew's is named Salah. He is adorable, they spend most of the year in Kuwait and school breaks in Ireland. Can I just say, most 'normal' people, regardless of religion share the views you have expressed here, on every count. Best wishes on your travels. Maybe you could check out Ireland. However, I think you will find what you are leaving behind exists to a greater or lesser degree throughout the world now. You may only find home and peace within. Take care. ❤️??

Where are you going though? Wish you and your family all the best. Sending you best wishes.

Wish you all the BEST in life ❤️ plz pray for me n my family, too. may ALLAH make it easy for us too.\nWaiting for your next vdo.

It's so sad that you even have to consider this, but you need to do what you feel is right for you and your family. This world is so scary right now and it's only going to get worse before it gets better. I wish you the best of luck in your search and I hope that you can find a safe and inviting place to move.

Alsalam Alykom Saleh family,\n\nI totally understand your reasons. And wish you the best in your life.\n\nI recommend the following countries:\n* Arabic speaking countries\nQatar - Saudi Arabia- Egypt \n\n* Non Arabic speaking countries\nTurkey- Malaysia- Indonesia - Albania\n\nMay Allah do the best for you.

Assalam o alikum brothers and sisters,\nI am from Pakistan. i was planing to move to USA, Canada or Australia but now after seeing the situations there and hearing you guys out. i think i should reconsider it. I really want to thank you both for sharing your personal experience and wanna wish you a very happy, safe and healthy life. May the Almighty ALLAH help us and guide us towards the right path.\nThank you so much.

Please wherever you go, do not come to Pakistan. Even we hear and love Azan on speakers throughtout the day but the political conditions here are so perverse and uncertain that no one's safe. The leadership, political and military, have sold their imaan for the gain of this world. Outlook is very bleak but we Alhmadolillah put our faiths in Allah SWT and understand that He has a plan. But we are used to living in these conditions and will survive inShaaAllah. However, I really do not wish for my brethren in Islam to move here in good faith only to be disappointed. \nI have heard good things about Oman. And of course Dubai is a good option for you guys. Wish you best ❤️

What a great decision ❤ wish you guys all the BEST ❤❤

Masha'Allah! I truly wish you the best in your life! May Allah Subhanahu wa ta'ala protect you wherever you are! ?❤ & Free Palestine ???️?

You two seem like some cool people who I would want to hang out with! I am a white Christian American. I cannot fathom the struggles and fears you face daily. I wish you the best on your travels and finding the perfect place that feels like home!

This is the best decision you made guys, I wish I could make the do the same

Good for you!!!\nWe have been considering moving too and are now pretty determined. But we don’t know where to as it seems that soo many muslim countries have taken a disappointing stance regarding this genocide. Wishing you all the best and may Allah protect you

This is really eye-opening. I wish a lot of those in Nigeria screaming out loudly that Canada is the new greenest pasture could watch this clip and get educated on the realities of those who have lived all their lives in Canada. \n\nSeriously, one or two of the high points of the reasons given for me is the issues of children indoctrination and societal decay of long-cherished values in Canada.\n\nI wish you and your family the best as you make decision to leave Canada. May Allaah (SWT) ease the tasks ahead of you, strengthen your Eemaan and bless your family with a strong and untied home.

I met you at RIS, Toronto. 100% agree with everything you said.\n\nI wish I could take the same step as you. I came to Canada from Pakistan hoping for a better life and career, and I've been in a constant emotional struggle myself if moving to Canada was the right decision for myself and my family. Staying and fighting inflation and indoctrination is hard, and packing my bags and heading back is just as hard, if not harder. \n\nMay Allah make all of this easier for all of us. Ameen!

Sad to hear. We're actually moving as PRs soon there. I have plans to move again in the long run to a better Muslim country than I'm currently in (Bangladesh). I wish you guys the best. May I ask which province you are currently residing in?

I wish I could do that too for the seek of Allah!

If we could afford to, which I am so glad you are able to, my heritage and dad's home land is Ukraine, if it wasn't ravaged by war, that's where I would love to go, or my moms dad came from Scotland, another place we wish we could afford to go, prices are through the roof and we are bringing up our grandson on disability, he's autistic and adhd, so has meds that cost alot of money, also have a disabled daughter, not grandsons mom, so ya money doesn't go far enough so all we can do is move to a small town, so glad you are able to follow your dreams, personally I agree with your stance on freeing the Palestinians, thanks for listening

It's great that you're going to explore counties before making the final move destination. I'm looking forward to finding out which country you'll settle in. Best wishes ❤️

I wish you all the best, I believe that Allah will help you all the time ?

Ma sha'a Allah I'm with you guys , we are leaving Switzerland ?? with my converted wife to a Muslim country, For our kids and for us . I wish all the Muslim families will have the courage to do the same .wish you and your family the best . ?

May Allah provide your family with ease as you make this journey, and may he open up rizq and sustenance for your family in abundance-ameen. Wishing I had the courage and insight to have made this decision 10 years ago to leave.

I'll be interested in knowing where you decide to move to that doesn't have inflation. Good luck finding somewhere. I was also unpleasantly surprised with some of your other points, but nonetheless wish you all the best. Overall you seem like lovely people.

wishing you the very best.
