What is the status of the Dhimmis in the present age, and are they obligated to pay Jizya and Kharaj, or have these been replaced by other terms? Are there any books or websites that have addressed the status of the Dhimmis in the present age?

Some Sharia rulings, such as the jizya, cannot be applied during times of Muslim weakness, especially since they were originally legislated during times of Muslim strength. Some scholars believe that theia jizya should be waived for non-Muslims residing in Islamic countries, out of consideration for the situation of Muslims in non-Islamic countries. Others have argued that jizya is a substitute for defense and protection, and it is waived for dhimmis if they participate in defending the abode of Islam. He believes that such issues require collective ijtihad from jurisprudential councils.
