Majma al-Zawaid 9797 — Reports on the jizyah

عَنْ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ عَوْفٍ قَالَ : لَمَّا خَرَجَ الْمَجُوسِيُّ مِنْ عِنْدِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - سَأَلْتُهُ فَأَخْبَرَنِي أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - خَيَّرَهُ بَيْنَ الْجِزْيَةِ وَالْقَتْلِ ، فَاخْتَارَ الْجِزْيَةَ . رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ ، وَسُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ مُوسَى لَمْ يُدْرِكْ عَبْدَ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنَ عَوْفٍ .
Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates: When the Magian came out from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), I asked him, and he told me that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had given him the choice either to pay the jizyah or be killed, and he chose the jizyah.
This narration has been recorded by Imam Ahmad. The narrator Sulayman bin Musa did not live in the time of Sayyiduna Abd al-Rahman bin Awf (may Allah be pleased with him).
