Hasan bin Salih said: I asked Ubaydullah bin Umar about the acceptance of Islam by the people of the countryside and villages. He said: "Whoever accepts Islam from the people of the Sawad, if he was a dhimmi (one who had a covenant), then his land and property are his. And whoever accepts Islam having no covenant of protection (no covenant or treaty), and it was conquered by force, then his land belongs to the Muslims."
