Hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ إِسْمَاعِيلَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو عَوَانَةَ، عَنْ حُصَيْنٍ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ مَيْمُونٍ، عَنْ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ وَأُوصِيهِ بِذِمَّةِ اللَّهِ وَذِمَّةِ رَسُولِهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنْ يُوفَى لَهُمْ بِعَهْدِهِمْ، وَأَنْ يُقَاتَلَ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ، وَلاَ يُكَلَّفُوا إِلاَّ طَاقَتَهُمْ‏.‏

Narrated `Amr bin Maimun:`Umar (after he was stabbed), instructed (his would-be-successor) saying, "I urge him (i.e. the new Caliph) to take care of those non-Muslims who are under the protection of Allah and His Apostle in that he should observe the convention agreed upon with them, and fight on their behalf (to secure their safety) and he should not over-tax them beyond their capability

Amr bin Maimun bataate hain: Umar ne (chhura maare jaane ke baad) hukum diya, "Main unhe (yaani naye Khalifa ko) mashwara deta hoon ke woh un gair-Musalmanon ka khayaal rakhen jo Allah aur uske Rasool ki panah mein hain, aur unke saath kiye gaye ahad ka paalan karen, aur unki taraf se jung karen (unki surakshaa ke liye), aur unpar unki taakat se zyada tax na lagaen."
