The answer

For a Muslim to reside in non-Muslim countries, generally, it is a condition that he is secure in his religion and capable of openly practicing its rituals. If these two conditions are met, then residence is permissible; otherwise, it is not. The matter hinges on the Muslim's situation in the city and the extent to which the aforementioned two conditions are fulfilled.
