ahmad:1685ʿAbd al-Razzāq > Ibn Jurayj > ʿAmr b. Dīnārʿan Bajālah al-Tamīmī > Lam Yurid ʿUmar > Yaʾkhudh al-Jizyah from al-Majūs Ḥattá Shahid ʿAbd al-Raḥman b. ʿAwf

Amr ibn Aws and AbulSha'tha' reported that Bujalah said: I was secretary to Jaz' ibn Mu'awiyah, the uncle of Ahnaf ibn Qays. A letter came to us from Umar one year before his death, saying: Kill every magician, separate the relatives of prohibited degrees from the Magians, and forbid them to murmur (before eating). So we killed three magicians in one day, and separated from a Magian husband his wife of a prohibited degree according to the Book of Allah. He prepared abundant food and called them, and placed the sword on his thigh. They ate (the food) but did not murmur. They threw (on the ground) one or two mule-loads of silver. Umar did not take jizyah from Magians until AbdurRahman ibn Awf witnessed that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ had taken jizyah from the Magians of Hajar. (Using translation from Abū Dāʾūd 3043)

أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ أَخَذَهَا مِنْ مَجُوسِ هَجَرَ

bukhari:3156ʿAlī b. ʿAbdullāh > Sufyān > ʿAmr

I was sitting with Jabir bin Zaid and ʿAmr bin Aus, and Bjalla was narrating to them in 70 A.H. the year when Musʿab bin Az-Zubair was the leader of the pilgrims of Basra. We were sitting at the steps of Zamzam well and Bajala said, "I was the clerk of Juz bin Muawiya, Al-Ahnaf's paternal uncle. A letter came from ʿUmar bin Al-Khattab one year before his death; and it was read:-- "Cancel every marriage contracted among the Magians between relatives of close kinship (marriages that are regarded illegal in Islam: a relative of this sort being called Dhu-Mahram.)" ʿUmar did not take the Jizya from the Magian infidels till ʿAbdur-Rahman bin ʿAuf testified that Messenger of Allah ﷺ had taken the Jizya from the Magians of Hajar.

"I was a scribe for Jaz' bin Mu'awiyah at Manadhir when 'Umar's letter came to us (saying): 'Inspect the Zoroastrians around you to take the Jizyah from them. For indeed 'Abdur-Rahman bin 'Awf informed me that the Messenger of Allah ﷺ took the Jizyah from the Zoroastrians of Hajar.'"
