Dont mess with the Saudis. I think Middle Eastern politics is a comprehensive game of chess that has been going on for centuries. The western world cannot comprehend the game because it missed the first 100 moves. All they can see now is who is left and not what moves got the ME there. The chaos is not as chaotic if you live it daily and they have been.

Assalamualaikum guys! I have been following your channel for awhile and as a Muslim living in Toronto, I definitely understand the reasons you mentioned in the video. One suggestion I have is not to move to the Middle East, at least to Gulf Nations. There is indeed a strong Muslim presence there but I found it deeply problematic how these countries are run by the exploitation of migrant workers, and I'm not sure if that would align with your values. I think somewhere like Malaysia would be a much better option!

Move to middle east... qatar, saudhi , kuwait and no dubai

Aslaamu aleykum,I have moved from UK ?? to Nepal ?? Kathmandu.\nNepal is safe country,cheap to livet hey are very respectfull to all regions infact Eid is public holiday.\nYou can go out in the middle of the night and no one will bother you, there is Masjids every corne reven though 4% are muslims.\nNepali people are genuinely friendly

It’s not their job and they carnt do that this isn’t a Muslim country you want to live under sharia law go live in the Middle East

Masha'Allah, I really love the reasoning. When you visit the middle east and Asian Muslim countries, u love the peace and belonging

I m middle eastern and after 35 years I want to leave Canada I can’t handle anymore the cold weather and loneliness all my friends left Canada

From a 12 year old girl, who wanted to explore London, study in UK and constant and full heartedly prayers... I came to UK when I was 27... But I had to face a new me here.. after my course completion, where I stand now, and still having the opportunity to continue here . I decided to choose a middle eastern country .. most importantly for my Imaan and my child's good upbringing. Though I get questioned from everyone around here for choosing to leave this country, I know what I want.. and I need what I seek.. Allah has answered my prayer and gave me the chance to be here and he also gave me all the lessons for me to understand what I need and I chose to leave UK. So proud of my decision

Ok i fully support your decision to leave canada since its your choice and not mine but I would just like to say that please choose a stable country with good quality of life and bright future i live in Pakistan and we literally are running out of gas blackouts happen practically everyday sometimes short some times long and im middle class so just choose somewhere where you feel comfortable and has s bright future \nIm not telling you guys that you are wrong im just pointing out somethings you guys should keep in check again its your life you should somewhere you feel comfortable

It’s very hard to realize our government and most western governments are supporting genocide. I do see some minds being changed by what’s happening in Gaza and the West Bank right now due to the internet and sites like Democracy Watch Now. \nThe part you said about drag queens telling stories at the library being bad is a bit hypocritical if you are suggesting that we should be tolerant of how others live. Tolerance should not stop at certain groups of people . I doubt that a drag queen telling a story would hurt your children. You could find out, when those events are happening and not go. \nI’ve travelled in at least 12 Muslim countries in the Middle East and there is plenty of things wrong in every country. No country is perfect because they are ran by humans \nI wish you all the best where ever you land.

You should do what is best for your family. But I don't really understand your first reason. As much as Western countries are complicit in what is happening, so are many Muslim countries like UAE, Saudi, Bahrain. And I assume you are definitely planning to move to one of the countries in the Gulf. Leaving aside the government, I have seen more support for the Palestinian cause among the general population in the West that in my whole life in a Middle East country. I was born and brought up in the Middle East. I learnt more about the Palestinian cause infact living in a Western country now. Living in a gulf country, I have infact seen less regards for the underprivileged amongst my Arab friends that I see amongst western people. It is true I am a good Muslim living in a Middle East country, but I realise I am a better human being because I live now in a Western country.

May Allah guide you and your family. We are truly living in difficult times and it is even hard to find a place which is safe for muslims to bring up their young. I would suggest somewhere like qatar as their schooling does not have include what muslims fear, although many schools in qatar and the middle east use the western curriculum and are being westernised. Perhaps homeschooling in a muslim country is the best and ideal solution. I know even non muslims who are fear for their kids now and are moving away ….

Just be careful on your country of choice you choose to move to. We lived in the Middle East loved it however certain people/nationalities are treated very badly as well as the rich get better health care well the poor gets not the best health care which is hard to witness I found especially in a Islamic country

Hi, we live in Luxembourg and are practising muslims and have a kid. yes, indeed it is very difficult to raise a kid with Islamic values in this society. also, it's challenging to practise for ourselves as well. we don't want to be liberal muslims, rather a true muslim. but that's difficult. so we are considering to move to a middle eastern country in a couple of years InshAllah. thanks in advance for sharing your journey, good luck to you wherever you choose to live❤?

Bang on!!! I’m currently in the Middle East and this trip is solely for the purpose of exploring the options. \nInsha’Allah it is all for the better. \n\nGood luck to you guys.

Alhamdulillah that's a good decision but where your heading too I can suggest middle east or india in india specifically Hyderabad first you visit then decide I hope you guys read this comment

I always felt I would be happy living in the west and my plan was to migrate to canada or Australia one day. Now that I have children of my own I will not replace the middle east with anywhere else. In today's world I want my kids to grow up In a Muslim country away from the west and filth there

GUYs.... some Middle East/mentioned muslim countries & KSA are 200% with Isreal at Gov. level !! ... we are from that world and DONT be fooled. Things are drastically & disgustingly changing in that arab world. Unfortunatly the non-arab natives do get easily foold that these Muslim countries are proudly representing Islam which is not the case !

Salam, I was born and raised in Canada but I knew one thing ever since I was young, I knew that I wanted to get married and raise my children in my home country, Lebanon. So, I did get married back in 2003, raised my children there until 2021. This is when I made the conscious decision to move back to Canada for a “better life” ? only because there were lots of problems with our economy…. \nDuring this past summer I knew that Lebanon was a “better life” lol \nAgain after living and witnessing first hand everything you mentioned in your video, I too made the conscious decision to leave Canada and move back to stunning Lebanon. Best decision I have made! \nI completely agree with everything your saying and may Allah show you a better life for you and your family in the Middle East. \nWelcome to come to ??❤

I have lived in Malaysia (5 yrs), Bahrain (7 yrs), Pakistan (born and raised), and now in Canada (4 yrs). Each have had their own pros and cons. \n\nMalaysia has some of the nicest people in the world. Beautiful country, lots of rain, temperatures usually between 28-30C, all year round. Laid back office culture. Lots of work holidays! In the last one decade Pakistani community has grown steadily esp in Kuala Lumpur. English is widely spiken and understood in major cities.\nAs for the cons, very expensive international schools and daycare centers, that would take a huge chunk out of your income. Pakistani food not that easy or cheap to find, but that may have changed since we left. Relatively high cost of living, if you need to live near city centers.\n\nBahrain sees both winter and summer. Not much of other 2 seasons. A large Pakistani, Indian community, so much so that I rarely ever used English to communicate with cab drivers or shop seles reps!. Regular Arabs struggle a bit with English though. Pakistani/ Indian food very easily available n affordable. Again a laid back work culture. Maids and domestic help easily available. \nAs to the cons, you may encounter racism sometimes. Arabs are generally nice ppl but u may sometimes find them condescending in their dealings with you. Probably bc most of Pakistanis, Indians, Bangladeshi and Nepalis form the labour force (and we all know how worker strata is treated in the Middle East). International schools are again quite expensive (lesser than Malaysia though).

I wish I could leave the West. I live in Australia and people are against anyone that isn't from here. Especially middle easterners and Muslims.

In Toronto ,wherever I worked , all races mingle together quite well, discrimination is just not there. I worked with people from all over the world and native Canadians. Summary: regardless they were from USA,Nigeria,Middle East, Asia,Russia, Ukraine,Denmark ...Or local Canadians, all so nice , hard working that the working environment were not stressful and very enjoyable

You want to practice slavery Sharia law go back to the Middle East where you started

Yes stopping war and aid for suffering people is necessary .very true.\n*But at least why can't yu take few* vulnerable population inside,there are so many middle east countries and the **rest people staying can safeguard their land \n*Why yu cant yu stand against hammas like yu stand against Israel.\n*Jews and judiasm existed right before 70 BC ,they are the origin of Palestine right from beginning and they were named as Palestine by Romans empire .although many Jews who migrated out during Roman empire ,came back during British rule ,there were Jews right there from beginning in Palestine and Jews are ancestors to Christians which originated * 1 st century and ** Islam which originated 7 th century .we need to accept first both ISRAEL AND PALESTINE has the right to exist.only peace can bring this on either sides.All cultures ,all religions have Their \nRights.

capitalism systems will always fail the poor and the middle classes, that's why

Why cannot European leaders be like these Arab leaders instead of taking in whole the Middle East and African and the world....

Who are they to lay the law down, if they want there own religion then go to a country in the Middle East and they can have all there religions as much as they want, this is a Christian country, get use to it

Kinda like how the Arab world has displaced Jews from every country in the Middle East

translation - it's ok for the west to take everybody from the middle east but not ok for the middle east to take in fellow people from the middle east

Guys you are watching the fallen western society, canada is not the only one. Do you want invest your life in another country? Asia and middle est are goint to be the future.

There will never be peace in the Middle East...

History has taught them not to accept them. They want them to stay there in Palestine. Look at Lebanon, it used to be the Paris of the Middle East. Once they took Palestinian refugees, the country was half destroyed and turned into a terrorist zone. Look at Jordan, the King welcomed them in and later a war followed within his nation and he was forced to take action because they wanted him dead.

The answer was perfect. I've never been into geo politics or the dispute between Israel and Palestine but, the more I learn of it I'm stuck in the middle just now as I still don't know enough facts about everything, but I definitely think his answer is correct unless there's an underlying agenda that Israel sees which I don't. At the end of the day its all about power and each side will fight to the death for that power.

If Hamas really cares about its people then they would stop taking the foreign aid and hoarding the supplies for themselves. \n\nHamas hates Jews more than they love their own people. And the whole Arab world is inline with Hamas. \n\nThe only way anything changes in the Middle East is if the rest of the Arab world condemns this hatred of Jews and allows for the Palestinians to have a government that cares about them rather than cares about the destruction of Israel.

I live in Ontario Canada. Generally; I vote Liberal. I voted Trudeau in twice.... now regretting it a little bit. He has done some good for me; but also bad.\nCanada started plummeting after COVID hit; and it has gotten worse. The main errors made by this government are with both the Liberals and Conservatives agreeing to 'grown' big corporates into HUGE monopoly corporates. TO compete with the USA. Due to this; we are now paying food prices through our ears!! Crazy. Also; there seems to be a level of corruption regarding the housing issue. No affordable housing. Not enough homes built. Only the rich can afford homes now. Government gets to tax that; and they love it! The rich class have more clout in voting for a government that aids them in making more and more money that they rob from the POOR house renters. The lower and middle class. As the Middle class in Canada is now becoming poor. The rich get much richer. This government is trying to bring in thousands of immigrants to stimulate the economy. But mostly; the immigrants have taken over all the lower Canadian jobs. We can't get them anymore. Because immigrants work cheap here; and sign onto contract deals with mega-corps that ensure they keep working for 2 years. Job entry level Canadians (are left without). There are also not nearly enough houses for immigrants to live in anyway! This government did not anticipate that we simply do not have enough homes for immigrants, nor Canadians alike!! What a fail. Healthcare is also failing huge... mostly thanks to the Conservatives who love to block almost every good healthcare BIll possible.

Great, With that argument Sweden can return 1mil Arabs to middle east and say that its an Arab weight that needs to be lifted

Maybe the Europeans can take back their fellow Europeans aka the chosen ones that was once expelled from the Europeans countries and planted in the middle Eastern Germany and Poland especially ?

What about the millions of Jews that throughout the Arab nations for millennia who were thrown out by the Muslim people - they didn’t want to leave their land either. But, they moved on with life and built the best economy in the Middle East. The Palestinians would rather continue with their victim mentality and stoke the fire of antisemitism than make something of themselves.

Drive away them from Europe. Europe must crussade for drive away them back to middle east. Protect all indigenious European people from this foreign immigrants

How about middle eastern countries stopping funds to hamas? It would stop every violence.

Meanwhile the whole entire situation was started by Hamas. It is Hamas hiding in the hospitals and schools and homes. Maybe the Palestinians need to kick Hamas out and the attacks will stop. You think there weren't any civilian casualties during WW1, WW2, Korea, Vietnam, the 100 year war in the Middle East?

Well said..this a israeli media pushing..to divide the countries in middle east..

UK has brought this on to itself by creating all the mess in Middle East with Jordan and Iran.Iranians have been dealing with this for the past 45 years. \nIranian Jew

Im sorry but he’s saudi no? So is no one questioning the fact that he said that SA wouldn’t work with anyone that would force them or want the Palestinians to leave their land? It’s Saudi Arabia…arguably the United States biggest ally in the Middle East other then the state that is forcing the Palestinians off their land has been doing so since the post WWII Era. The US is a power that has and continues to support Israel and Israel is forcing the Palestinians off their land so if the Saudis are not gonna support a country or work with a country that supports the removal of Palestinians then they need to stop taking American money and stop being the US biggest ally, also idk why you all praise him, talk is cheap and the Arab world hasn’t done much about israel continuing to eat away at the Palestinian state, if SA truly believes that Palestine isn’t going to be forced off the world map then SA should start supporting Palestine, he didn’t even agree to let in refugees..not sure where all the praise is coming from he talks like a politician, he avoided the actual question and says what the people wanna hear despite not making efforts to make that happen.

Many people flew from arab countries after islam rise to middle east and asia.\nBut only difference is that these people are more concerned about the land than the life.

deport them all to middle eastern countries, that's their home with their people who share their same values, religion, and culture.\nStop voting for political parties that promote all that shit about refugees. You see China, Japan, and South Korea having those issues? nope.\nThen why cannot be the same in western countries? why should western countries accept refugees?\nStop the left bullshit.

In the another word that arab worlds don’t accept refugees. So many wars were in middle east (iran, iran, syria, lebanon etc) but Saudi did not open their country for refugees.

This gives Millions other to migrate to Canada ??. Not for middle class but for poor its still dream come true. Your analysis is wrong as if you do cash work like driving TAXI ? you pay ZERO 0⃣ TAX.You do resemble SUNNY LEONE Indian movie star ?.

Last time Palestinians refugees taken in, they tried to overthrow the Jordanian government. 1969-1970. Non of the Middle Eastern countries want them.

Gotta love it when these people think their opinion matters to middle eastern anymore lol.
