Muslim refugees
Muslim refugees are Muslims who have been expelled from or forced to leave their homes due to persecution, wars, invasions, and occupation of Muslim lands, becoming refugees.
Muhajir or Mohajir (Arabic: مهاجر muhāǧir) is an Arabic word meaning immigrant.[1] The Islamic calendar Hejira starts when Muhammad and his companions left Mecca for Medina in what is known as Hijra. They were called Muhajirun. The Arabic root word for immigration and emigration is Hijrat. Over centuries, the term has been applied to a number of other Muslim refugee and emigrant groups.
