She wants to make Hijrah from USA and does not want to wait as her marriage proposal suggested
3-3-2005 | IslamWeb
Question:
I have always wanted to make Hijra to a Muslim country but I never had a Muhrim. I young man proposed to me and promised that he would have me to an Islamic country after two or three years. I really don't want to stay two or three more years because my Imaam is decreasing everyday. I make Istikhaarah and I wanted to consult someone but I am too shy to talk to anyone. What you do believe is the best thing to do in this situation?
Answer:
All perfect praise be to Allaah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allaah, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. We ask Allaah to exalt his mention as well as that of his family and all his companions.
First of all we ask Allaah to increase your zeal in holding tight to your religion and to facilitate for you your affairs in the right way.
Our advice is that if you know that the man who proposed to marry you is religious and has a good moral character, and know that he is determined to migrate from the non-Muslim country to a Muslim country, then it is more appropriate for you to accept to marry him, and Allaah knows best. As he will help you in performing good deeds until both of you will be able to migrate to a Muslim country. However, if you notice that he is not really determined to migrate or that you are sure that he will not migrate, then you can migrate even without a Mahram (an unmarriageable relative). The evidence about this permissibility, is that some female companions 
migrated without a Mahram, like Um Kalthum Bint 'Uqbah Abu Mu'ayt 
and others.
Imaam An-Nawawi
[from Shaafi'ee school] quoting Al-Qaadi 'Iyaadh said: 'The scholars
agreed that a woman cannot travel without a Mahram except for 'Umrah and Hajj, however, they agreed that it is permissible for her to migrate form a country in war against Muslims to a Muslim country even if she does not have a Mahram.'
Therefore, if a woman fears to be tempted and afflicted in her religion in a non-Muslim country, then she can travel to a Muslim country even without a Mahram.
However, we advise you to constantly supplicate Allaah and invoke him earnestly to enable you and facilitate this matter for you. Besides, you should take all the measures to be safe from being tempted when travelling and in the place of your residence in the Muslim country where you want to live. You may also, if you can, refer your case to trustworthy Islamic centres as they might find a pious husband for you who has the same wish to migrate from the non-Muslim country. This is better as in this case you would combine marriage and migration, and there is nothing wrong about this. Moreover, there is no harm for a woman to propose herself to whoever she is confident about his religion and good moral character.
Allaah knows best.
