[Machine] "Do not buy the slaves of the Ahl al-Dhimmah, for they are the inhabitants of the tax land (kharaaj) that they pay from one another, and they please them. So, do not purchase them. And do not marry any of you with the minors after Allah saved him from it. Abu 'Ubayd said: What we see is that when he has slaves, land, and visible wealth, his jizyah would be more, and it was the practice of 'Umar with them that he would impose the jizyah in proportion to their ease and difficulty. So, for this reason, he disliked that their slaves be bought. As for the purchase of land, it goes towards kharaaj and he disliked that this should be on the Muslims. Don't you see him saying, 'And do not marry any of you with the minors after Allah saved him from it?' Abu 'Ubayd said: And he permitted it, after 'Umar, for certain men among the senior Companions of Muhammad ﷺ, including Abdullah bin Mas'ud, who owned land in Ratha'an, and Hubbab bin al-Aratt, and others."
