I'm jn the US and me and my family live paycheck to paycheck

I've been saying to friends and family of my exploration to move also. While my life is most comfortable in Canada, the double standards of democracy and free speech is mind boggling.

Don't come to the US... it's the same here. We've pulled our kids out to homeschool bc of the things being allowed and taught, as well as the number of threats my kids schools have received this year. The COL is terrible, amount of time you spend away from your family just to pay bills paycheck to paycheck is terible...

Good for you guys! To answer your question….Yes! We are currently living in Egypt (6 months now) from the USA. Left for many of the same reasons. All the Best to you and your family in this next chapter .

welldone beautiful family..❤\nMay u have utmost ease and blessings in ur life.

I am a Christian in America so for your last issue I’m opposite from you politically because I believe that my God promised his people (the Jews) that land. With that said, your family is the type of Muslim that would be extremely welcome in America by the Christian community because of your views on LGBT+. There are Muslim YouTubers, have you considered reaching out to some of them like BakemydayMimo? It might be easier if you had someone who had your faith and unique job to introduce you to a new community. Even though I disagree with you on some things, I wish you the best of luck, and if you move to my community in Pennsylvania you will be welcomed (even though it’s still cold)

Mashallah May Allah make the proces easy for your family

Checkout kuwait i live there with my family its is a small beautiful country. The pay is relatively high its on the ok side and its affordable

Allah bless you all family members

Best wishes for you to find the perfect home for your family. Being in a very liberal state here in the U S. I understand all you say ( even the winter reason...I'm in the northeast lol). ❤️

My peace be with you in your family

May the salleh family continue to be protected by Allah Taala always Amen ??

Family doctors choose how busy they want to be.

You guys don't forget to take a trip to Puerto Rico. You will love it. They will respect you and value you. As a Lebanese/spanish I love it. Blessings to you and your family. ?

I am a teacher. Just wondering what they are teaching in Canadian schools that worries you. I had a Muslim boy in my class this year that I would have bent over backward to accommodate. The family ended up moving to another school, but I really enjoyed getting to know them.

My prayers and well wishes are with your family . May Allah swt make it very easy for you and open great doors . I just have one question your number one concern was politicians support of genocide but what are the arab countries doing . Are they not supporting this as well ?

I am from Bosnia and while yes we had great opportunities here, we are really wanting to move back home, its so nice to hear ezan, eat halal, eat healthy food , less stress, more walking, but it is hard to make the decision to leave family here.

Wa'alaikumsalam Saleh fam. I am a Malaysian, specifically from Kuala Lumpur (KL), who has been living in the States for 25 years. I share your concerns and problems. For years, my American husband has been suggesting for our family to permanently relocate to KL. And for all those times, i ignore him, but this Isnotrael-Palestine war has made me consider it.\nMalaysia is very beautiful, people are friendly, food is amazing! Just wait til Ramadan, you'll love it. If you have any questions, let me know. I'll help the best i can.

May Allah make it easy for you as a family.

I was born in the UK but went to Canada as a young child with my emigrating parents in the early 1950’s. Later we emigrated to the US in 1963. I know I would not enjoy the cold winters of Canada at all anymore if I lived there. I lived in FL for 20 years which I enjoyed except for the hurricanes and rapidly increasing home insurance. I live in North Carolina now where the winter is very manageable. I hope you are able to find a place that meets most of the needs you want to find in a different environment. I am very sorry for what is happening in Gaza and like you I believe it is a terrible Genocide by the Israelis. I am not Muslim and do not belong to any organized religion. I just try to live my life in kindness and with love for others. I love nature, animals and our beautiful earth. May you and your family be blessed in the decisions you are making for your future and very best of luck to you.

Wow Mashallah. You're guys are such a real muslims thinking about the future about your children for islamic environment. I'm married to a muslim Pakistani family my wife was born in Germany, i moved to germany from Pakistan and seeing here new muslims generation is moving towards atheism which is so heart breakign, and they are ignorant for muslims values because they are being impacted by western culture and they turn their faces and ashamed of their deen, i am so happy for you guys and I know Allah will put so much barakat in your decision. Not so many people think about this, they just wanna move to 1st world country just because of luxury and security and better environment but ignore the cons of non islamic countries.

Wow. Had no idea you are homophobic. I guess it had to come out eventually. Before anyone snaps at me - my father is Muslim, I grew up with Muslim family and there are many Queer Muslims who are in Muslim countries. Saying you can't be Muslim and Queer is as wrong as when fundamentalist Christians spread homophobia.

God bless you and your family. Barakallah lakum..

Wallahi, it’s like the US. Everything they mentioned happens here as well. My husband and I are the only Muslims in our families. We want to move to a majority Muslim country but all our family is in the US. May Allah protect this ummah. Ameen ❤

Great reasons, may you be blessed and safe! We are so happy for you and your family ❤

I have so much respect for you guys. Staying true to your faith and your values is so admirable. I'm in the US and I can't wait to get out of here. I'm looking at the immigration process for several countries. I'd love to hear about your experience and watch your journey finding your new home. Sending you and your beautiful family love and light ❤

That I found this video is a sign from Allah I am on the right thought and path❤❤\nI am a Single Muslimah working mother of a young kid and InshaAllah will do Hijra for the sake of practising Islam easily. ??\n\nWas looking for options and came across this video. JazakAllah! Saleh family❤️❤️\n\nMay Allah make it easy for all of us to follow our deen. \nInshaAllah will do Hijra in 2025 and raise a child who will be a wonderful Muslim above everything else. Aameen! ??

Choose Indonesia or Malaysia is good for your family

can i just say how much i AGREE on the drag queens and not wanting our future kids or children to understand? i grew up in a Russian family and we never knew about drags or lgbtq until i was 13. i fear for my future as a young women and my future kids. i fear for my baby sister.

May Allah make it easy for you and your family

I have enjoyed your videos and learning about islam. I am not of your faith but I respect your faith. You and your family are in my prayers in finding a place to live that will be good for you guys.

Jordan ?? is a great option for family life Islamic values and good education (private schools but affordable in Amman), the only downside is income and economy. Need about $5000 for a family of 4-5 to live comfortably in Amman.

If l lived in a country that supports the Genocide in Palestine l would relocate my family too. You've made the right decision May Allah swt protect and guide you always Ameen much love from South Africa ❤

Alhamdulillah, may you find the best place that you can raise your family and grow the ummah ameen.\n\nAlhamdulillah, we are blessed in South Africa with good Islamic teachings, lots of places to pray.\n\ndown side is crime, corruption.\n\nbut there are many pockets of communities and also pockets of safety... Inshallah Allah paak knows best.

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

May Allah make things ease and reward abudantly to both of you and your loved kids and make this your Niyyah and efforts to be most successful and most blessed for your family here in this temporary worldly life and the permanent Aakhirah life too..\n\nWe are really waiting and looking forward to see your further videos on this topic, seeking inputs about the best possible Muslim county to get settle with the citizenship..

MashAllah, May Allah always bless your family with health, happiness and Iman.

Qatar is a really good country to live for Muslims. I grew up in Qatar, and my family still lives in Qatar. I moved to Canada after I got married.

Salaam alaykum brother and sister, I am a Muslim and I live in the US, and totally agree and understand your decision, I feel the same way too, however I just wanted to let you know that if you are considering Dubai or anywhere in the UAE, Saudi or the Gulf area for that matter, then don't since the final reason you stated will be a reason there as well, unfortunately but yes, I have a family members that live in these countries and myself have visited there, otherwise, keep us posted with your findings and may Allah guide us all, jazakum Allah kheiran

Totally agree with your decision!!! Find a safe home for your family, so it can grow in peace and love!!!?????

Absolutely spot on and totally understandable!!!! I respect u for the decision u are making and i would surely do the same! It will be one of the best decisions u have ever made! Good luck.. may Allah make it easy for u&your family!! May u always be happy! ❤

May Allah protect you and your family. I totally agree on what you said. I hope your hijrah is accepted and rewarded abundantly by Allah. Amen

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.

Alhamdulillah. May Allah surround you and your family with blessings upon Blessings. You are a beautiful example of faithful, loving and caring spouses and parents. I pray Allah blesses you with a comfortable new home. Thank you for sharing. ❤❤❤❤❤

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.

Best decision a Muslim can make for there growing family ❤\nIm still hoping to retire in a Muslim country \nIn Shaa Allah ?

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 Allah guide you to what is right for your deen and family. It is an ongoing thought I’ve been struggling with as well

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. ❤️??
