Don't Be A Dhimmi

  1. Islamic law assigns non-Muslims to an inferior status known as Dhimmitude
  2. A poll tax, called Jizya, is exacted from Dhimmis and imposes various rules like:
  • No churches or public worship allowed
  • Distinctive clothing is required - Dhimmis cannot dress like a Muslim
  • Curtailed job opportunities, such as a Dhimmi cannot supervise a Muslim
  • Dhimmi men cannot marry Muslim women
  • Muslims must be quartered on demand
  • And others

Partially imposed in Islamic Theocracies like Saudi Arabia and Iran. Takes the form of ordinary discrimination and hostility in others.
