Commentary
Things are dictated by the turn of time and circumstances. At times, emigration is superior, at other times the Jihâd, and sometimes one thing and at another time another thing. Likewise, persona too differs from man to man. For someone, emigration is meritorious, for someone else something else; as the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ had prevented the Bedouin from emigrating, see Ahâdith 4168-69.
