The Ruling on Bringing Non-Muslims to work in the Muslim Countries, especially the Arabian Gulf

Question :

Is it permissible to bring in workers from among the non-Muslims?

Answer:

There is no doubt that the Prophet ordered the expulsion of the polytheists from the Arabian Peninsula and he (likewise) ordered the expulsion of the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula, saying:
Verily, I will expel the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula, until I leave none but Muslims.

The Hadiths prove that the guidance of the Prophet was that the Arabian Peninsula should remain free from non- Muslims, due to the danger posed by the presence of Christians and other disbelievers. From this Peninsula, Islam began and spread to the farthest corners of the world and to it, it will return, as it is confirmed in authentic Hadiths that faith will recede to Madinah as the serpent returns to its hole. Based upon this, bringing non-Muslims to this Peninsula carries a great danger, and even if it were not for the potential danger and harm that they pose, it is also possible that the one who brings them here may become close to them and rely upon them, and he may even come to love them, becoming devoted to them. Allah, the Most High says:
You (O Muhammad) will not find any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, making friendship with those who oppose Allah and His Messenger (Muhammad) even though they were their fathers or their sons, or their brothers, or their kindred (people). For such He has written faith in their hearts and strengthened them with Ruh (proofs, light and true guidance) from Himself.

It may be that the distinction between truth and falsehood become blurred to him, so that he comes to believe that they are our brothers and he may consider them as such; and he may claim, due to the whisperings of Satan to him, that they are our brothers in humanity. This is not correct, for brotherhood in faith is the true brotherhood, and as long as there is a difference in religion, there can be no brotherhood. So much so that, when Nuh said:
O my Lord! Verily, my son is of my family! And certainly, Your Promise is true, and you are the most Just of judges.

He said:
Surely, he is not of your family. The Prophet cut off the relations between the believers and the disbelievers, even in matters of inheritance after death, saying:
The Muslim does not inherit the disbeliever, nor the disbeliever the Muslim.

Since the matter is thus, then living close to the non-Muslims, bringing them here and cooperating with them in work, sharing food and drink with them, coming and going with them all of this may lead to the death of (religious) zeal in the hearts of the Muslims, so that they become close to those about whom Allah said:

O you who believe! Take not my enemies and your enemies (i.e. disbelievers and polytheists etc.) as friends, showing affection towards them, while they have disbelieved in what has come to you of the truth (i.e. Islamic monotheism, this Qur'an and Muhammad).
