Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو كُرَيْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنْ قَابُوسَ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ نَحْوَهُ ‏.‏ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ زَيْدٍ، وَجَدِّ حَرْبِ بْنِ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ الثَّقَفِيِّ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ قَدْ رُوِيَ عَنْ قَابُوسِ بْنِ أَبِي ظَبْيَانَ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم مُرْسَلاً ‏.‏ وَالْعَمَلُ عَلَى هَذَا عِنْدَ عَامَّةِ أَهْلِ الْعِلْمِ أَنَّ النَّصْرَانِيَّ إِذَا أَسْلَمَ وُضِعَتْ عَنْهُ جِزْيَةُ رَقَبَتِهِ ‏.‏ وَقَوْلُ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم ‏"‏ لَيْسَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ عُشُورٌ ‏"‏ إِنَّمَا يَعْنِي بِهِ جِزْيَةَ الرَّقَبَةِ وَفِي الْحَدِيثِ مَا يُفَسِّرُ هَذَا حَيْثُ قَالَ ‏"‏ إِنَّمَا الْعُشُورُ عَلَى الْيَهُودِ وَالنَّصَارَى وَلَيْسَ عَلَى الْمُسْلِمِينَ عُشُورٌ ‏"‏ ‏.‏

Abu Kurayb told us: Jarir told us, from Qabus, with this chain, a report similar to it. Reports on this subject are also related from Said ibn Zayd and the grandfather of Harb ibn Ubaydullah al-Thaqafi. Abu Isa said: The hadith of Ibn Abbas is also narrated from Qabus ibn Abi Zabyan, from his father, from the Prophet, as a mursal report. Most scholars acted upon this: when a Christian accepts Islam, the personal jizyah tax is waived for him. The statement of the Prophet, “There is no tithe on Muslims,” refers to the personal jizyah tax. Another hadith explains this, saying: “The tithe is only upon Jews and Christians; there is no tithe upon Muslims.”
