As Salamu Alaykum A Salafi Brother from Kosovo is interested to study abroad in Europe, close to a Salafi community so he can benefit in the dunya and akhira. Which University would be closest to Salafi Publication? I assumed Birmingham City University, if so, how far is this university away from the Salafi Masjid? Please give any information and advice which might be helpful in this regard. Jazak Allahu Khair Abu Maryam Al-Albanee

as Salaamu 'alaykum wa rahmatullaahi wa barakaatuh, Akhee, Maybe the brother should consider studying with one of the numerous online schools where you can study from the comfort of your home without mixing and still acquire the appropriate degrees and certifications that are needed so succeed in landing a decent job. We won't be advertising any of those schools, but a simple google search for such institutions will give him many options. A Salafee should not put himself into a situation where he may compromise his deen in a environment that is not suited for a man of Sunnah. See the below quoted fatwa for further clarification. May Allaah make it easy for the brother, aameen! akhook, Hamza al-Busnawee Question: Is it permissible to for a man to study in a university in which men and women mix in one place, bearing in mind that the student has an active role in calling to Allaah? Answer: It is my view that it is not permissible for a person, man or woman, to study in mixed schools; this is because of the great danger to his modesty, reputation and morals, because a human being, whatever may be his reputation, morals and innocence, if there is a woman sitting next to his chair, and especially if she is beautiful and revealing her beauty is unlikely to be safe from temptation and evil and everything which leads to temptation and evil is forbidden and is impermissible. So we ask Allaah , Most Glorified, Most High, for our Muslim brothers that they protect them from such matters as these which bring nothing but evil, temptation and corruption to their young men. And if no other university is found except this one, he should leave his studies in order to study in another country in which there is no such mixing. So I do not consider it permissible, although someone else might hold another opinion.
