Furthermore:

"From the point of view of the Muslim rulers, jizya was a material proof of the non-Muslims' acceptance of subjection to the state and its laws,"

These day we have our employment contracts as material proof

"In return, non-Muslim citizens were permitted to practice their faith,"

Do you think KSA will allow this one? Think again.

"to be entitled to Muslim state's protection from outside aggression,"

But no mention of inside agression ....

So, basically you expect the GCC to tax non-muslims working here. Very good. Either of 2 things would happen:

a) You will quickly lose a lot of non-muslim workers who are only here to avail a tax free salary, or

b) companies would increase the salaries by the amount of tax levied in order to keep the staff they already have and desire.

Assalamualaikum Habib,

When arabs allowed the other qaum to live here and work(with out tax), then why these people are showing partiality. Why do they cheat us? I know many people who had suffered because of these migrants.
