islamic war laws violated by isis / isil

And the final one

"Book 17, Number 17.24.46:

Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard that Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz wrote to his governors telling them to relieve any people who payed the jizya from paying the jizya if they became muslims.
Malik said, "The sunna is that there is no jizya due from women or children of people of the Book, and that jizya is only taken from men who have reached puberty. The people of dhimma and the magians do not have to pay any zakat on their palms or their vines or their crops or their livestock. This is because zakat is imposed on the muslims to purify them and to be given back to their poor, whereas jizya is imposed on the people of the Book to humble them. As long as they are in the country they have agreed to live in, they do not have to pay anything on their property except the jizya. If, however, they trade in muslim countries, coming and going in them, a tenth is taken from what they invest in such trade. This is because jizya is only imposed on them on conditions, which they have agreed on, namely that they will remain in their own countries, and that war will be waged for them on any enemy of theirs, and that if they then leave that land to go anywhere else to do business they will haveto pay a tenth. Whoever among them does business with the people of Egypt, and then goes to Syria, and then does business with the people of Syria and then goes to Iraq and does business with them and then goes on to Madina, or Yemen, or other similar places, has to pay a tenth.
People of the Book and Magians do not have to pay any zakat on any of their property, livestock, produce or crops. The sunna still continues like that. They remain in the deen they were in, and they continue to do what they used to do. If in any one year they frequently come and go in muslim countries then they have to pay a tenth every time they do so, since that is outside what they have agreed upon, and not one of the conditions stipulated for them. This is what I have seen the people of knowledge of our city doing."

Christians might use Surah 9:29 to show that Muslims must fight them until they pay the Jizyah, so this shows discrimination. However, this also applies to the Muslims who do not pay their Zakat. Abu Bakr fought against the Muslims who didn't pay Zakat."

That really doesn't answer my question.Are minorities equal....can a tree worshipper be a caliph ?How do minorities stand in a court of law vs a muslim ...on equal terms ?

Two separate questions... Is everyone equal in Islamic Law? Absolutely! A muslim has no superiority whatsoever in the court.

Allah (swt) says in the Holy Qur’an:

And if you judge, judge with justice between them.
Verily, Allah loves those who act justly.

The most famous example of this justice is in the legal trial of a Jew who stole the coat of armour of Ali (ra) as he was travelling to a battle. The judge Shurayh made no exception for Ali (ra) even though he was the Khaleefah, a Muslim and also off to fight in a battle so was in desperate need of his armour. Shurayh ruled in favour of the Jew and accepted his testimony in court.

Now the second part of the question, Who can be a Caliph?
The Caliph is the Guardian and implementor of Islamic Law(can only be a Muslim) and is "chosen" by Muslim delegates, Chiefs or decision makers. Caliph doesn't run for election!

Except that Jizya and Zakat aren't the same.


These people are literally 3 centuries behind the rest of us. There's believing in religion, then there's belief in some sky god and then there are these geniuses.

You are continue to show your idiocracy. Muslims pay 2.5 percent Zakat yearly . Jizya ranges b/w 1.5-2 Percent. You shouted Jizya is discrimination. Discrimination is Non-muslims paying smaller or higher taxers while Muslims sits idle on their arses. But it is the opposite here. There are glaring examples in our history where Rightly guided caliphs went after those muslims, (hugh wars) who didnt pay Zakat. So you cant shout discirimination that Musilm rulers doesnt force muslims to pay Zakat. And then there are exceptions in Jizya tax as mention in post 60

Like I said, try harder next time in proving Jizya is discriminatory tax.

I dont think Jizya was lower than Zakat and secondly,this could be the islamic principle on paper but may have never been followed properly and this whole thing of a different tax for muslims and non muslims is by itself a tool for discrimination at every level.

Secondly,non muslims had absolutely no share in political power,so it doesnt really matter if they shared half a percentage point less tax.

Non muslims didn't get so many rights,their temples being destroyed,they cant work in the army etc etc.
