What is the ruling regarding the Jizya (poll tax) liability for a person possessing a mixture of free status and servitude?
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Jizya
Primary text
For an individual containing a mixture of freedom, the ruling based on the school's analogy dictates that they owe Jizya proportionate to the degree of freedom they possess. This is because the ruling concerning the Jizya is divisible and varies according to the state of being free or enslaved. Therefore, it must be divided according to the proportion contained within the person, similar to the division of inheritance.
