Receiving good news and advice...yaay

I was speaking with a sister that I love very much as she has taught me much at that crucial time during the beginning of my Islam into the present. I have known and respected her opinions for like 11 or 12 years now. WOW it seems like it was just yesterday but rather so long ago lol. 

Anywho back to "my good news", I was speaking to her and she informed me that she will be leaving the country as well but the good news is that she will be close to me just like we were in the same neighborhood before by the Permission of Allah we will again. I was excited to hear the good news about her and her family as well as hearing that a couple other families we both know are leaving as well for the same land. Its always important to have good people in your circle. Especially when being in a different place, I won't say an unfamiliar place bcuz Ive been there once before but at the same time its different now than it was when I lived there years ago.

She was advising me to create a circle of sisters who are on the same page as myself, sisters who are there for good reasons and intent, who are there to change their lives for the better. She advised me "not to go to the fool; for advice", lol. Meaning don't surround myself with those who have migrated but have not increased, benefitted or learned anything about that place during their time there. This is a struggle all around the board Masha Allah, I don't want to have untrustworthy sisters as company but at the same time, I don't wanna be affected by loneliness or Fright. However I don't wanna be affected by those who migrate for selfish reasons or just to say they've Migrated to a muslim land and they keep trouble or negativity with them at all times.

Her advice was to seek out sisters who have been there and know the land, maybe sisters who are natives to that land and they know the current events as well as speaking the language, those who are positively productive in speech and actions (I agree). In my opinion I think in situations like Migration, its Imperative to have Positive people around to whom you can depend on in time of need and positive, productive company to refrain from the lonely state that you could easily fall into allowing shaytaan to play on your emotions and fears...Be safe akhawaat and may Allah make your Migration an easy and beneficial one. ameen

The Noble Quran 4:97

إِنَّ ٱلَّذِينَ تَوَفَّىٰهُمُ ٱلْمَلَٰٓئِكَةُ ظَالِمِىٓ أَنفُسِهِمْ قَالُوا۟ فِيمَ كُنتُمْ ۖ قَالُوا۟ كُنَّا مُسْتَضْعَفِينَ فِى ٱلْأَرْضِ ۚ قَالُوٓا۟ أَلَمْ تَكُنْ أَرْضُ ٱللَّهِ وَٰسِعَةً فَتُهَاجِرُوا۟ فِيهَا ۚ فَأُو۟لَٰٓئِكَ مَأْوَىٰهُمْ جَهَنَّمُ ۖ وَسَآءَتْ مَصِيرًا

Inna allatheena tawaffahumu almalaikatu thalimee anfusihim qaloo feema kuntum qaloo kunna mustadAAafeena fee alardi qaloo alam takun ardu Allahi wasiAAatan fatuhajiroo feeha faolaika mawahum jahannamu wasaat maseeran

Verily! As for those whom the angels take (in death) while they are wronging themselves (as they stayed among the disbelievers even though emigration was obligatory for them), they (angels) say (to them): "In what (condition) were you?" They reply: "We were weak and oppressed on earth." They (angels) say: "Was not the earth of Allah spacious enough for you to emigrate therein?" Such men will find their abode in Hell - What an evil destination!
