[@Yourpropertiesguru]

May Alllah guide us aright. Masjid abroad are much cleaner and deen easier abroad we just need to pray for a better company. With better planning.

[@JkaysCorner]

Well said 👏🏾

Do u now have time to pray zhuri and asri in jamaah?do u now see symbol of Islam, ask what prophet say about muslim living in non Muslim land

[@akeemadisa1748]

Jazakumullah khairan, I'll have loved doctor to throw more light on the issue of the reverse Hijra that happens when you japa. Though it's controversial about the other types of fitnah we encounter in Nigeria that doesn't allow us to practice properly. In the UK for example, there are several mosques but many people might not be opportuned to live close to one which inevitably draws one away from the mosque. May Allah guide us right

[@taiyesheu8660]

Prophet even disown Muslim living among Muslim, because u can't practice ur religion very well check surat nisa 97

[@konefine3626]

It is a good advice, but the situation of Africa, mostly Nigeria does not encourage anyone to stay. I passed through a predicament to come to abroad with many many more, today I am happy, give glory to God almighty, I have helped a lot from family and friends, I attended school here and now working as a IT specialist. If I was in Naija, I don't think there is hope cos many that I left behind not all of them are OK, if you can't be a ritualist, thug, politician, tout etc, you are nobody. I travelled to Naija my country for just 1 month with panic of kidnapping thieves etc, I entered back to Europe then I started feeling comfortable all the way from the airport. Talk to the government and, people like you are the speakers of the poor, you should keep doing sermon that will point to our bad leaders

Please provide your email address, I want to write you. I am a Nigerian in Abroad too.

Are you a Muslim? and did you listen to what he said. Reason for asking is because the Sheik is referring to practicing the deen not in a general economic sense and for a Muslim this takes priority every time. Insecurity and Kidnapping is not everywhere in Nigeria

[@konefine3626]

@@b326yr I am Muslim, but don't be blind, deaf or brainwashed with religion, read the Quran and study it yourself. What is the conveniency of religion when you are living in a paranoid life. Religion is 100% priority, but food to eat, life to live is also important. There is no kidnapping everywhere, yes of course, but what is the important of life while migrating because of kidnapping. The people that also kidnap uses the name of Allah, is that a country to stay because you want to increase your deen. I have been in many Arab world for religious purpose, life first before religion. How can you even serve God properly when your life is not save

[@b326yr]

@@konefine3626 Alhamdulillah I am living well in Nigeria (well above average) and I know friends and Family who are striving and also living well and I am trying my best with religion knowingAllah comes first, things are always easy for me. Obviously I am not the one deaf, blind and brainwashed by an ideology. So, Goodluck brother. Asalaam alaikum warahmotullah.

@@konefine3626 I have been to other countries by the way, so maybe my profile doesn't fit your narrative. But, I will still tell you, choose Islam first and every other things will be subservient for you.

Very sincere advice.

Jazakumlah kayran sir

[@greatmindstv1049]

Hmmm Allah's the guidance of all. This speaker is talking like this because he is financially okay. Anybody that have the opportunity to JAPA should do oooo.

[@kazeemadeleke7979]

I always told them to think of Canada America or Australia as the same as the new Sodom and Gomorrah. Lut chose this fertile land too and it took Abraham who chose desert to save him from losing everything.

[@adiotayo2964]

This Mallam is talking about me no one can tell me otherwise, before I moved to America I pray five times daily, do askar every night between maghrib and ishai. Now, no mosque is close to me, my 5 times daily prayer is affected, no more askar. May God almighty forgive and help me situation

[@AbuAbduLlaahAbdulKareem]

I also live in America and I can relate 100% even though I have masajids all around me. I once lived in a state with few masajids. Na person wey no give priority to deen or wey never live america no go understand wetin sheikh dey talk. Uk na small place and their own reality may be a little different from America

[@adiotayo2964]

@@AbuAbduLlaahAbdulKareem America have atleast multiple of UK population and UK is dominated by Pakistanis and mosque can be find everywhere yet developed country doesn't help closeness to religion.

[@AbuAbduLlaahAbdulKareem]

@@adiotayo2964exactly you’re right. I just said that because someone in UK might argue that their situation is better. It is true that the situation in the west makes people learn more about the deen sometimes but this is not true for most of the people and Islam caters to all. The vast majority of people don’t practice as much as they did back home and some even leave Islam altogether especially the women.

[@taiyesheu8660]

​@@adiotayo2964this is not true how many job in uk that give time for zhuri and asri

[@JejeLaiye]

Alhamdullilah Robil Alamin, Jazzakhallahu khair for the word of advice. I have learned and understood Islam better since I relocated years ago. It's a bit challenging everywhere to practice religion anywhere around the world if you don't put your mind at it. If you live in Canada, for example, so many factors affect you going to the masjid for prayers in addition to distance. One of these factors is changing in time of prayers for summer and winter months. Another observation from this lecture is that taking care of older people or washing plates in restaurants is not the only job you can do abroad. There are so many professional and trades jobs and out there that earn you good money. For me, I seek financial security and peace of mind for my family over everything.
