وَ مَتَى لَمْ يَكُنِ الْيَهُودُ وَ النَّصَارَى وَ الْمَجُوسُ عَلَى مَا عُوهِدُوا عَلَيْهِ مِنَ الشَّرَائِطِ الَّتِي ذَكَرْنَاهَا فَعَلَى مَنْ قَتَلَ وَاحِداً مِنْهُمْ ثَمَانُمِائَةِ دِرْهَمٍ وَ لَا يُقَادُ لَهُمْ مِنْ مُسْلِمٍ فِي قَتْلٍ وَ لَا جِرَاحَةٍ كَمَا ذَكَرْتُهُ فِي أَوَّلِ هَذَا الْبَابِ وَ الْخِلَافُ عَلَى الْإِمَامِ وَ الِامْتِنَاعُ عَلَيْهِ يُوجِبَانِ الْقَتْلَ فِيمَا دُونَ ذَلِكَ كَمَا جَاءَ فِي الْمُؤْلِي إِذَا وَقَفَ بَعْدَ أَرْبَعَةِ أَشْهُرٍ أَمَرَهُ الْإِمَامُ بِأَنْ يَفِيءَ أَوْ يُطَلِّقَ فَمَتَى لَمْ يَفِئْ وَ امْتَنَعَ مِنَ الطَّلَاقِ ضُرِبَتْ عُنُقُهُ لِامْتِنَاعِهِ عَلَى إِمَامِ الْمُسْلِمِينَ.
If the Jews, Christians, and Magians fail to uphold the conditions they were bound by, then whoever kills one of them must pay eight hundred dirhams in compensation, and a Muslim is not executed for killing them nor for injuring them, as I mentioned earlier in this chapter. However, rebellion against the Imam and refusal to comply with his authority can warrant execution even for lesser offenses, similar to the ruling on the man who swears to avoid his wife (Al-Mu'li). If after four months he neither reconciles with his wife nor divorces her, the Imam orders him to choose, and if he refuses, his neck is struck for defying the authority of the Muslim leader.
