Hadith 3769
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، قَالَ: «إِذَا أَسْلَمَ الرَّجُلُ مِنْ أَهْلِ السَّوَادِ، وَأَقَامَ بِأَرْضِهِ أُخِذَ مِنْهُ الْخَرَاجُ، فَإِنْ تَرَكَ أَرْضَهُ رُفِعَ عَنْهُ الْخَرَاجُ»
Sayyiduna Ibrahim (may Allah have mercy on him) says: "If a person from the people of Sawad (Iraq) accepts Islam and remains on his land, then kharaj (land tax) is taken from him, and if he leaves the land, then the kharaj ends for him."
Hadith 3770
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا هُشَيْمٌ، عَنْ سَيَّارٍ، عَنِ الزُّبَيْرِ، عَنْ عَدِيٍّ، أَنَّ دِهْقَانًا أَسْلَمَ عَلَى عَهْدِ عَلِيٍّ، فَقَالَ لَهُ عَلِيٌّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: «إِنْ أَقَمْتَ فِي أَرْضِكَ رَفَعْنَا الْجِزْيَةَ عَنْ رَأْسِكَ وَأَخَذْنَاهَا مِنْ أَرْضِكَ، وَإِنْ تَحَوَّلْتَ فَنَحْنُ أَحَقُّ بِهَا»
During the time of Sayyiduna Ali bin Abi Talib (may Allah be pleased with him), a villager accepted Islam. Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) said: "If you remain on your land, the jizya will be lifted from you and kharaj will be taken from the land, and if you leave the land, then we are more entitled to it."
Hadith 3771
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ مَعْمَرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ طَاوُسٍ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، قَالَ: فِي كِتَابِ مُعَاذٍ " مَنِ اسْتَخْمَرَ قَوْمًا - قَالَ ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ: يَعْنِي مَنِ اسْتَعْبَدَ قَوْمًا أَوَّلُهُمْ أَحْرَارٌ وَجِيرَانٌ مُسْتَضْعَفُونَ - فَمَنْ قَصَرَ مِنْهُمْ فِي بَيْتِهِ حَتَّى دَخَلَ الْإِسْلَامَ فِي بَيْتِهِ فَهُوَ رَقِيقٌ، وَمَنْ كَانَ مُهْمَلًا يُؤَدِّي الْخَرَاجَ فَهُوَ حُرٌّ، وَأَيُّمَا عَبْدٍ نَزَعَ إِلَى الْمُسْلِمَةِ مُسْلِمًا فَهُوَ حُرٌّ "
It is stated in the letter of Hazrat Mu'adh (may Allah be pleased with him): "Any people who enslave someone while they were previously free and weak neighbors—so whoever is confined in someone's house and brought into Islam in this way, he is a slave; and whoever has continued to pay tribute while being free, he is free. And any slave who comes running towards Muslim women in Islam becomes free."
Hadith 3772
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ عَيَّاشٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، قَالَ: كَتَبَ عُمَرُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ: «مَنْ أَسْلَمَ مِنْ أَهْلِ الْأَرْضِ فَلَهُ مَا أَسْلَمَ عَلَيْهِ مِنْ أَهْلٍ وَمَالٍ، وَأَمَّا أَرْضُهُ وَقَرَارُهُ فَهِيَ كَائِنَةٌ فِي فَيْءِ اللَّهِ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ»
Hazrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz (may Allah have mercy on him) wrote: "Whoever among the people of the land accepts Islam, his family and wealth are protected for him, however, his land and his dwelling will be counted among the spoils (fay’) of the Muslims."
Hadith 3773
حَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدٌ قَالَ: نا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ وَهْبٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ الْحَارِثِ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ، عَنْ عَوْفِ بْنِ حِطَّانَ، أَنَّهُ كَانَ. . . . . لَهُ مِنْ مِصْرَ مِنْهُمْ أَمْرَدُ، بَيْنَهُ وَبَيْنَ بَلْهِيبَ عَهْدٌ، وَأَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ لَمَّا سَمِعَ ذَلِكَ كَتَبَ إِلَى عَمْرِو بْنِ الْعَاصِ «فَأَمَرَ أَنْ يُخَيِّرَهُمْ فَإِنْ دَخَلُوا فِي الْإِسْلَامِ، فَذَاكَ، وَإِنْ كَرِهُوا فَارْدُدْهُمْ إِلَى قُرَاهُمْ»
When Sayyiduna Umar bin Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) received the news that some people had come from Egypt to Balahib under a treaty, he wrote to Sayyiduna Amr bin al-As (may Allah be pleased with him) instructing him to give them the choice of either entering Islam or returning to their villages.
