"Jizya" (often misspelled as jysiah) is a historical tax levied on non-Muslim subjects (known as dhimmis) living under Islamic rule. It was a yearly, per-capita tax that permitted non-Muslims to practice their religion, protected them from foreign aggression, and exempted them from military service.
