Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) says: If any man among you goes to a settlement where you have no relatives, what do you call such a man? I said: We call such a man 'Aluj' or 'Saqat'. Lady Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) said: In the time of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), we used to call them 'Muhajireen' (emigrants).
