[Machine] The wife of the Prophet ﷺ , Sawdah, said, "When Mecca became narrow for us and the companions of the Messenger of Allah ﷺ were persecuted and afflicted with trials and they saw the afflictions and trials they were facing in their religion, and that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ could not protect them from it, and the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was in a state of boycott by his people and his relatives, where nothing reached him that he disliked but affected his companions. The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said to them, 'Verily, in the land of Abyssinia, there is a king who does not oppress anyone under his rule. So go there until Allah opens for you a way out and a place of refuge from what you are in.' So, we emigrated to it in groups until we gathered and settled in a good land, with a good neighbor. We were safe in our religion and did not fear any injustice from him." And the hadith mentioned its entirety.
