The view of Abu Hanifa regarding the nullification of a covenant due to violation.
General Chapter
Al-Mughni
Book of Jizya
Primary text
Abu Hanifa holds that the covenant is not nullified except by refusal to submit to the Imam in a manner that makes collecting Jizya impossible.
Supporting text
The supporting evidence is a narration that Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) dealt severely with a man who attempted to force a Muslim woman into adultery, stating this was not what the treaty permitted. Furthermore, violations causing harm to Muslims resemble refusing to pay Jizya.
