Question:
He says: We would like clarification on when the jizyah is paid?
Answer:
The jizyah (the tax on protected non-Muslims) is taken from the Jews, the Christians, and the Zoroastrians. Yes, provided they do not enter Islam and submit to paying the jizyah with humiliation and degradation, it is taken from them. Allah the Exalted said:[At-Tawbah 9:29] And the same applies to the Zoroastrians, because the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) took the jizyah from the Zoroastrians and said, "Treat them as you treat the People of the Book." Yes.

Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - [fight] until they give the jizyah willingly while they are humbled.
قَاتِلُوا الَّذِينَ لَا يُؤْمِنُونَ بِاللَّهِ وَلَا بِالْيَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَلَا يُحَرِّمُونَ مَا حَرَّمَ اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ وَلَا يَدِينُونَ دِينَ الْحَقِّ مِنَ الَّذِينَ أُوتُوا الْكِتَابَ حَتَّىٰ يُعْطُوا الْجِزْيَةَ عَن يَدٍ وَهُمْ صَاغِرُونَ
