The Shariah imposes four kinds of rights and obligations for all those who will be governed by it:
-
The Rights of Allah (Huquq-Allah).
-
The Right of an individual towards himself (Huquq-al-Nafs).
-
The rights of all human beings over him (Huquq-ala-Ibad).
-
The rights of putting to proper use all Allah resources and bounties which Allah has placed in his service. (Khalifat Allah alal ard).
-
There is so much guidance in respect of each one of the above classifications in Islamic scriptures that they would form a subject of voluminous books. But for the purpose of this book, we shall dwell upon numbers three and four to discuss the rights of non-Muslims under Shariah, the subject which has generated so much doubts and misgivings in the minds of Muslims and non-Muslims alike.
