The Permissibility of the Blood of the Mushrik and the Wealth of the Dhimmis
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
This questioner says: You said, Honorable Shaykh, that a mushrik (one who associates partners with Allah) who commits major shirk (associating partners with Allah) may have his blood and wealth made lawful. There are mushrikin among us who are designated as dhimmis (non-Muslims under Muslim protection). Are their blood and wealth made lawful?
The Shaykh:
The People of the Book, the Jews and the Christians, it is permissible to conclude a dhimmah (protection) treaty with them, take the jizyah (tax on protected non-Muslims) from them, and subject them to the rule of Islam. As for other mushrikin, nothing is accepted from them except Islam or killing, or they are killed in jihad (struggle in the path of Allah) in the path of Allah. It is not that everyone is killed and everyone is not; this returns to jihad in the path of Allah. And it returns to the rulers. It is not that everyone kills and everyone rules over the people while he does not know or is ignorant of these matters. These are not matters of chaos; matters have their regulations. Yes.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you. That concludes it.
The Shaykh:
Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad, and upon his family and his Companions.
