Yahya related to me from Malik from Zayd ibn Aslam from hisfather that he said to Umar ibn al-Khattab, "There is a blind she-camel behind the house,'' soUmar said, "Hand it over to a household sothat they can make (some) use of it." He said, "But she is blind."Umar replied, "Then put it in a line with other camels." He said, "Howwill it be able to eat from the ground?" Umar asked, "Is it from thelivestock of the jizya or the zakat?" and Aslam replied, "From thelivestock of the jizya." Umar said, "By AIIah, you wish to eat it."Aslam said, "It has the brand of the jizya on it." So Umar ordered itto be slaughtered. He had nine platters, and on each of the plattershe put some of every fruit and delicacy that there was and then sentthem to the wives of the Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant himpeace, and the one he sent to his daughter Hafsa was the last of themall, and if there was any deficiency in any of them it was in Hafsa'sportion. "He put meat from the slaughtered animal on theplatters and sent them to the wives of the Prophet, may Allah blesshim and grant him peace, and he ordered what was left of the meat ofthe slaughtered animal to be prepared. Then he invited the Muhajirunand the Ansar to eat it." Malik said, "I do not think thatlivestock should be taken from people who pay the jizya except asjizya." Translation Not Available

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Umar ibnAbd al-Aziz wrote to his governors telling them to relieve any peoplewho payed the jizya from paying the jizya if they became muslims. Malik said, "The sunna is that there is no jizya due from women orchildren of people of the Book, and that jizya is only taken from menwho have reached puberty. The people of dhimma and the magians do nothave to pay any zakat on their palms or their vines or their crops ortheir livestock. This is because zakat is imposed on the muslims topurify them and to be given back to their poor, whereas jizya isimposed on the people of the Book to humble them. As long as they arein the country they have agreed to live in, they do not have to payanything on their property except the jizya. If, however, they tradein muslim countries, coming and going in them, a tenth is taken fromwhat they invest in such trade. This is because jizya is only imposedon them on conditions, which they have agreed on, namely that theywill remain in their own countries, and that war will be waged forthem on any enemy of theirs, and that if they then leave that land togo anywhere else to do business they will haveto pay a tenth. Whoeveramong them does business with the people of Egypt, and then goes toSyria, and then does business with the people of Syria and then goesto Iraq and does business with them and then goes on to Madina, orYemen, or other similar places, has to pay a tenth. People ofthe Book and magians do not have to pay any zakat on any of theirproperty, livestock, produce or crops. The sunna still continues likethat. They remain in the deen they were in, and they continue to dowhat they used to do. If in any one year they frequently come and goin muslim countries then they have to pay a tenth every time they doso, since that is outside what they have agreed upon, and not one ofthe conditions stipulated for them. This is what I have seen thepeople of knowledge of our city doing." Translation Not Available
