[Machine] Ash-Shafi'i said: The Messenger of Allah ﷺ demanded the jizyah from Ukaidir al-Ghassani and they considered him to be righteous men from the Arabs regarding the jizyah. As for Umar ibn al-Khattab and those who came after him from the caliphs until today, they have demanded the jizyah from the Banu Taghlib, Banu Tanukh, Bahra, and mixed tribes of the Arabs, and they have remained upon Christianity to this day, and the sadaqah is doubled for them. And that is the jizyah. Indeed, the jizyah is imposed on religions, not on lineages. And if it weren't for the invalid delusions, we would have wished that Abu Yusuf would have said as he said, and that minors should not be charged on an Arab. But Allah is more worthy in our eyes than us loving anything other than what He has decreed.  

قَالَ الشَّافِعِيُّ قَدْ أَخَذَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ الْجِزْيَةَ مِنْ أُكَيْدِرَ الْغَسَّانِيِّ وَيَرْوُونَ أَنَّهُ صَالَحَ رِجَالًا مِنَ الْعَرَبِ عَلَى الْجِزْيَةِ فَأَمَّا عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ ؓ وَمَنْ بَعْدَهُ مِنَ الْخُلَفَاءِ إِلَى الْيَوْمِ فَقَدْ أَخَذُوا الْجِزْيَةَ مِنْ بَنِي تَغْلِبَ وَتَنُّوخَ وَبَهْرَاءَ وَخُلْطٍ مِنْ خُلْطِ الْعَرَبِ وَهُمْ إِلَى السَّاعَةِ مُقِيمُونَ عَلَى النَّصْرَانِيَّةِ يُضَاعَفُ عَلَيْهِمُ الصَّدَقَةُ وَذَلِكَ جِزْيَةٌ وَإِنَّمَا الْجِزْيَةُ عَلَى الْأَدْيَانِ لَا عَلَى الْأَنْسَابِ وَلَوْلَا أَنْ نَأْثَمَ بِتَمَنِّي بَاطِلٍ وَدِدْنَا أَنَّ الَّذِي قَالَ أَبُو يُوسُفَ كَمَا قَالَ وَأَنْ لَا يُجْرَى صَغَارٌ عَلَى عَرَبِيٍّ وَلَكِنَّ اللهَ أَجَلُّ فِي أَعْيُنِنَا مِنْ أَنْ نُحِبَّ غَيْرَ مَا قَضَى بِهِ
