Hazrat Sha'bi, regarding the verse of the Holy Qur'an { وَإِنْ کَانَ مِنْ قَوْمٍ بَیْنَکُمْ وَبَیْنَہُمْ مِیثَاقٌ}, says that he should be from among the Ahl al-Dhimma, not one who comes under protection (aman).

Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) regarding the verse of the Holy Qur'an { وَإِنْ کَانَ مِنْ قَوْمٍ بَیْنَکُمْ وَبَیْنَہُمْ مِیثَاقٌ} says that it refers to a person who enters into a covenant and his people are also included in the covenant; his blood money will be given to his heirs, and his slaves will be set free.

Ibrahim, regarding the verse of the Holy Qur'an { فَإِنْ کَانَ مِنْ قَوْمٍ عَدُوٍّ لَکُمْ وَہُوَ مُؤْمِنٌ}, says that if a man is killed and his people are polytheists, and there is no treaty between him and Allah's Messenger صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم , then a believing slave will be freed. And if a Muslim kills such a polytheist with whom there is a treaty between him and the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم , then a believing slave must be freed, and the blood money will be given to his people with whom there was a treaty with the Messenger of Allah صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . His inheritance will go to the Muslims, and his blood money will be upon the Muslims for his polytheist people with whom there is a treaty with Allah's Messenger صلی اللہ علیہ وسلم . The Muslims will inherit his inheritance. His blood money will be upon his people because they pay the blood money on his behalf.

Hazrat Sa’d bin Abi Dhibab (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I presented myself before the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and accepted Islam. I submitted,“O Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him)! Appoint something for my people so that they may be willing to accept Islam.”The Prophet (peace be upon him) appointed something for them.

Hazrat Sakhr bin Ailah narrates that I apprehended the uncle of Hazrat Mughirah and brought him to the service of the Noble Prophet (peace be upon him). Meanwhile, Hazrat Mughirah bin Shu’bah (may Allah be pleased with him) arrived and inquired about his uncle. He was informed that he was with me. The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) called me and said: O Sakhr! When a people accept Islam, they safeguard their wealth. He says that we gave it to him. The Prophet (peace be upon him) granted me water for Banu Sulaym, so they accepted Islam and came to the service of the Prophet (peace be upon him) and requested water. The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: O Sakhr! When a people accept Islam, they save their lives and wealth, so return it to them. Thus, I returned it to them.

Hazrat Hasan bin Salih (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that I asked Hazrat Ubaidullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) about the Islam of the people of the wilderness and villages. He replied: Whoever among the people of Sawad became Muslim, if he was a dhimmi (one who had a covenant), the land and wealth remain his. And whoever embraced Islam who had no covenant (no agreement or treaty), and he was conquered by force, then his land belongs to the Muslims. Hazrat Ubaidullah says that this was written in the letter of Hazrat Umar bin Abdul Aziz.

35677 - Ubayd Allah said: This is in the book of Umar ibn Abd al-Aziz.

Hazrat Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) says that any city which is conquered by force, then if its inhabitants accept Islam, they will be free and their wealth will go to the Muslims.

Hazrat Hani bin Yazid narrates that I appeared before the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, along with the delegation of my tribe. When the delegation intended to return to their region, he, may Allah be pleased with him, granted each person among them, in his region, the land he preferred as a fief.

Hazrat Zuhri says that whoever becomes a Muslim will safeguard his life and wealth except for land, except for the case that he became a Muslim without any action or fighting.
