Surah Al Baqara Verse 218

Verily, they who have attained to faith, and they who have forsaken the domain of evil (alladhina hajaru) and are striving hard in God's cause - these it is who may loo forward to God's grace: for God is much Forgiving, a Dispenser of Grace.

Allama Muhammad Assad comments "The expression Alladhina Hajaru (lit. "those who have forsaken their homelands") denotes, primarily, the early Meccan Muslims, who migrated..........Ever since the early days of Islam the term Hijrah has had a spiritual connotation as well - namely, a "forsaking of the domain of evil" and turning towards God: and since this spiritual connotation applies both to the historical Muhajiroon ("emigrants") of early Islam and to all the believers of later times who forsake all that is sinful and "migrate unto God", I am using this expression frequently."

God knows what type of 'Allama he was, more like the classic apologist uncle tom face required by the colonialists and saudi mafia during times of unrest whose fame was splashed all over the place by the zionists before embarking on his mission, he appeared more like the jewish version of lawrence. Then he ended up helping to create the Islamic state of pakistan run by secular kafir laws while the british and americans created the jewish state of israel run by secular kafir laws.

During his stay in*Saudi Arabia, he spent time with*Bedouins*and enjoyed close company of*Ibn Saud—the founder of modern*Saudi Arabia.
He also carried out a secret mission for*Ibn Saud*to trace the sources of funding for the*Ikhwan Revolt.
Due to these activities, he was dubbed in a*Haaretz*article as "Leopold of Arabia"—hinting similarity of his activities to those of*Lawrence of Arabia.
On his visit to*India, Asad became friends with*Muslim*poet-philosopher*Muhammad Iqbal*who persuaded him to abandon his eastward travels and "help elucidate the intellectual premises of the future*Islamic state".

He also spent five years in*internment*by the*British Government*at the outbreak of*World War II.

On*14 August*1947, Asad received*Pakistani citizenship*and later served at several*bureaucratic*and diplomatic positions including the*Directorof Department of Islamic Reconstruction, Deputy Secretary (Middle East Division) in the*Foreign Ministry of Pakistan*and*Pakistan's*Envoy*to the United Nations.

In the West, Asad rose to prominence as a writer with his best-selling autobiography,*The Road to Mecca.
Later, after seventeen years of*scholarly*research, he published his*magnum opus:*The Message of the Qur'an—an*English translation*and*commentary*of theQuran.*The book, along with the*translations*of*Pickthall*and*Yusuf Ali, is regarded as one of the most influential translations of the*modern era.
An ardent proponent of*Ijtihad*and*rationality*in interpreting*religious texts, he dedicates his works:لِقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَto People who Think.
In 2008, the entrance square to the*UN Office*in Vienna was named*Muhammad Asad Platz*in commemoration of his work as a "religious bridge-builder".

Asad has been described by his*biographers*as "Europe's gift to*Islam"
and "A*Mediator*between*Islam*and the West".
“Islam should be presented without any fanaticism.
Without any stress on our having the only possible way and the others are lost.
Moderation in all forms is a basic demand of*Islam.”
—* Muhammad Asad


With statements like that, no wonder the media paint people who state that those who die without accepting Islam after having been presented it will go to hell - as fringe extremists. How do you think they'll answer before Allah on the day of judgement having misled people who will hold them to blame?


Narrated Abu Huraira (RadhiAllahu anhu):
The Prophet (SAW) said, “While a man was riding a cow, it turned towards him and said, ‘I have not been created for this purpose (i.e. carrying), I have been created for sloughing.” The Prophet added, “I, Abu Bakr and ‘Umar believe in the story.”

The Prophet went on, “A wolf caught a sheep, and when the shepherd chased it, the wolf said,

‘Who will be its guard on the day of wild beasts, when there will be no shepherd for it except me?’

“After narrating it, the Prophet said, “I, Abu Bakr and ‘Umar too believe it.”
Abu Salama (a sub-narrator) said, “Abu Bakr and ‘Umar were not present then.”.....

Funny, i didn't saw Tunisia in the list! not even TuniSyria!

Be a traveller in this world, and a resident in the next.

England or America or Bangladesh, maybe France since the weather's good - if they repent and establish the rule of Allah in it's entirety now that they've learnt how to run an Islamic caliphate and have the ability to implement it. Then we'd all be able to travel through the earth if we ever felt bored.
Primarily, any place where the rule of Quran is fully implented and the courts rule with shariah rather than corrupt lewdness, middle east seems likely in the case of differences since they're the majority Muslim countries. It really hot there though, but hey, the fire of hell is hotter.
