In the Qur'an, Allah suhana wata Allah encourage every believer to travel through the land and see what was the end of those who persisted in disbelief. But, Allah did not specify emigration or migration. In fact, Moses was tasked to lead back his countrymen to Palestine from Egypt. Perhaps, this is the reason why Saudi Arabia for one, does not accept foreign nationals who intend to stay as permanent residents in the country.In many occassions and in many sources, I have learned and understood the fate of those who apparently did not get the instruction, as clear as it was. Others were simply insolent. As a result, some of them found themselves in desolation. But, those who remained steadfast, who returned after seeing places, they all have gained a satisfactory portion of the blessing in this transitory life, especially when iman became stronger after the short trip.
