Dhimmi refers to non-Muslims living in an Islamic state who are granted protection and certain rights in exchange for paying a tax known as the jizya. This status allowed dhimmis to practice their own religion and maintain their own religious institutions while living under Islamic rule, reflecting a complex relationship between Muslims and non-Muslims during the early Islamic period.
