Hijrah (Migration or Immigration) was established by Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) as he twice ordered his Companions (Sahaba)to immigrate to Abyssiniato preserve their faith when the disbelievers in Makkah began torturing them severely. Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him), however, remained in Makkah calling people to Almighty Allah, in spite of the great harm he received. Then Almighty Allah permitted him to immigrate to Madina. Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) allowed his Companions (Sahaba) to go to Madina, and, accordingly, they began immigrating, leaving their homes and properties, seeking the bounties and satisfaction of Allah, and helping Allah's cause and His Messenger. Almighty Allah praised those Muhajirun (immigrants to Madina) and promised them great reward. That is why Hijrah (Migration or Immigration) is mentioned in the Noble Qur'an associated with Jihad. Further, the Muhajirun (immigrants) became the best of the Prophet Muhammad's Companions (Sahaba), as they sacrificed everything one may cherish; namely home, property, family, and relatives, in order to preserve their faith and to please Almighty Allah (SWT).
Immigration has become an established fact that will not cease until Judgment Day. Hence, whoever cannot declare or practice his religion in a particular place must move to another place where he can freely declare or practice his religion. Moreover, Almighty Allah has threatened whoever can immigrate for the above mentioned reason and does not: "Surely (as for) those whom the angels cause to die while they are unjust to their souls, they shall say: In what state were you? They shall say: We were weak in the earth. They shall say: Was not Allah's earth spacious, so that you should have migrated therein? So these it is whose abode is hell, and it is an evil resort." Noble Qur'an (4:97)
This is, in fact, a strongly worded threat to whoever neglects Immigration, when needed, without a legal excuse. Allah's earth is spacious, and without doubt, there are many good places where one may practice one's religion freely.
