Emigration in the way of Allah is extolled here: the verses stress the merit of the emigrants and their reward, secured even for one who dies on the way, and see in it proof of sincere belonging and allegiance. They describe the Emigrants and the Helpers as allies of one another and true believers, and mention the fate of one who accepted oppression without emigrating.
Verses gathered from a topical index of the Quran, in Mushaf order; every verse is quoted in full.
Indeed, those whom the angels take [in death] while wronging themselves - [the angels] will say, "In what [condition] were you?" They will say, "We were oppressed in the land." They [the angels] will say, "Was not the earth of Allāh spacious [enough] for you to emigrate therein?" For those, their refuge is Hell - and evil it is as a destination.
