Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. Is the jizyah taken now from the non-Muslims who live in the lands of the Muslims in place of the zakah that is taken from the Muslim?

The Shaykh:
We seek help from Allah. If they are under a treaty, the jizyah is taken from them. Yes.

The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, the questioner says: If a person has a farm

The Shaykh:
The jizyah is in exchange for their protection. If they are under a treaty and the Muslims have protected them and defended them, the jizyah is due from them. Yes.
