Hadith 4177
اُردوEn
أَخْبَرَنَا عِيسَى بْنُ مُسَاوِرٍ ، قَالَ : حَدَّثَنَا الْوَلِيدُ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ الْعَلَاءِ بْنِ زَبْرٍ ، عَنْ بُسْرِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِدْرِيسَ الْخَوْلَانِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ وَقْدَانَ السَّعْدِيِّ ، قَالَ : وَفَدْتُ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فِي وَفْدٍ كُلُّنَا يَطْلُبُ حَاجَةً , وَكُنْتُ آخِرَهُمْ دُخُولًا عَلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنِّي تَرَكْتُ مَنْ خَلْفِي وَهُمْ يَزْعُمُونَ أَنَّ الْهِجْرَةَ قَدِ انْقَطَعَتِ ، قَالَ : " لَا تَنْقَطِعُ الْهِجْرَةُ مَا قُوتِلَ الْكُفَّارُ " .
´It was narrated that 'Abdullah bin Waqdan As-Sa'di said:` "We came in a delegation to the messenger of Allah, each of us with a question to ask him. I was the last of them to come in to the Messenger of Allah, and I said: 'O Messenger of Allah, I have left people behind me, and they are saying that emigration (Hijrah) has ceased.' He said: 'Emigration will not cease so long as the disbelievers are being fought."'

Urdu marginal note:
"It cannot end" because as long as the conflict between Islam and disbelief persists, Muslims will continue to be oppressed and subjugated in some region or another. Therefore, the journey from the abode of war (dar al-harb) to the abode of Islam (dar al-Islam) will continue, and this is what constitutes migration (hijrah). Or, it may mean that for the sake of jihad, Muslims will continue to temporarily leave their homes and families. With the help of these two meanings, it becomes possible to reconcile the narrations reported regarding whether migration (hijrah) has ended or not.
