Benefits and Issues:
➊
The Islamic state takes a tax from its non-Muslim subjects.
This is taken in exchange for their convenience, residence, and the protection of their lives, wealth, and honor.
And they are not obligated with responsibilities such as guarding the borders and (defense) fighting.
This tax is called jizyah.
In the Noble Qur’an, it is stated:
(QĀTILŪ ALLADHĪNA LĀ YU’MINŪNA BILLAHI WALĀ BIL-YAWM AL-ĀKHIRI WALĀ YUḤARRIMŪNA MĀ ḤARRAMA ALLĀHU WARASŪLUHU WALĀ YADĪNŪNA DĪN AL-ḤAQQI MIN ALLADHĪNA ŪTŪ AL-KITĀBA ḤATTĀ YU‘ṬŪ AL-JIZYATA ‘AN YADIN WAHUM ṢĀGHIRŪN) (al-Tawbah: 29)
Fight those who do not believe in Allah, nor in the Last Day, nor forbid what Allah and His Messenger (sallallahu alayhi wa sallam) have forbidden, nor follow the religion of truth, from those who were given the Book, until they pay the jizyah with their own hands while they are humbled.
Muslims pay zakat for the welfare of the Muslim society.
This is an honor.
Zakat is not collected from non-Muslim subjects.
Rather, jizyah is collected from them in a lesser amount.
➋
Ukaydir of Duma was a Ghassani Arab.
And this is evidence that it is necessary to take jizyah from non-Muslim Arabs as well,
just as it is taken from non-Arabs.
