Question:
May Allah reward you with good, and may He do you good. What about the dhimmis, Shaykh Salih? May Allah reward you with good.
Answer:
The dhimmis are those who come under the rule of Islam and pay the jizyah, from among the Jews, the Christians, and the Zoroastrians. It is permissible to leave them in the lands of Islam, provided they pay the jizyah, submit to the rule of Islam, and do not display their disbelief. These are the dhimmis. Certain conditions must be met regarding them. The Imam, the precise scholar, the distinguished scholar Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) has a famous book titled *Ahkam Ahl al-Dhimmah* (The Rulings of the People of the Dhimmi). It consists of two large volumes in which he mentioned the rulings concerning the people of the dhimmah. Yes.
