What is the ruling on a Muslim's emigration to non-Muslim countries to seek livelihood, if he is compelled to resort to bribery to obtain work in his own country, and he is diligent in preserving his religion?

The harms of residing in disbelieving countries are greater than the harm of giving a bribe out of necessity in Muslim countries. With regard to the details concerning giving a bribe to obtain a permissible job for which the applicant is qualified and no one else is more deserving, there is no harm in paying money if obtaining the job depends on it.
