[Machine] "And that Muhammad is His slave and His Messenger, and that you establish prayer and give zakah and obey the rulers of the Muslims, for you have the same rights as they do and the same responsibilities. Then he said, 'What if I refuse to do that?' He said, 'Then you will have to pay the jizyah (tax) with your own hand.' He said, 'What if we refuse to do that?' He said, 'Then I will fight you until death becomes more beloved to you than life.' He said, 'Give us until tomorrow night to think about it.' He said, 'I have already made my decision.' When the people woke up in the morning, he (the companion) said, 'Indeed, we have all agreed to pay the jizyah.' So come and make peace with me.' Khalid said to him, 'How can you, as Arab people, prefer the jizyah and humiliation over fighting and dignity?' He said, 'We looked at the number of people who will be killed among us, and they will never return. And we looked at the wealth that will be taken from us, and it is unlikely that we will have it back unless Allah grants it to us.' Khalid then made peace with them for ninety thousand (dirhams)."
