Never compromise on faith
You may encounter a situation in life where your freedom of religion is curtailed or you are pressured to renounce some aspect of your faith. Never settle for such a compromise, and be willing to take substantial measures to defend your freedom to live according to Allah’s word. Just as the young men rejected their society and hid in a cave, we should be bold enough to adopt a strong stance, and migrate to a different place if we have to, for openly practising our faith. Allah informs us that those forced to adopt polytheistic ways will say to the angels in the afterlife, 'We were weak in the land.' (4:97) However, this excuse shall not be accepted, and the angels will reply, 'Was not the earth of Allah spacious, so that you should have migrated therein?' (4:97)
