Abstract: This research explores the concept of Jizya in Islam as a financial and legal system governing the relationship between the Islamic state and the non-Muslim citizens (Ahl al-Dhimma) living under its protection. The study examines the origins of Jizya in the Qur’an and Sunnah, its religious, political, and social purposes, and the juristic rulings related to its application throughout various Islamic eras. In addition, the research addresses other financial interactions with Ahl al-Dhimma, including taxes, trade, and treaties. The aim is to present a balanced scholarly and historical analysis that highlights the justice and humanity of Islam in dealing with non-Muslims, while also correcting widespread misconceptions found in Orientalist and modern discourse.
