Chapter on Taxation (kharaj) and Jizya (poll Tax)
وَ رَوَى طَلْحَةُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ عَنْ أَبِي عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ قَالَ: «جَرَتِ اَلسُّنَّةُ أَنْ لاَ تُؤْخَذَ اَلْجِزْيَةُ مِنَ اَلْمَعْتُوهِ وَ لاَ مِنَ اَلْمَغْلُوبِ عَلَى عَقْلِهِ.
Talha ibn Zayd narrated from Abu Abdullah Imam Jafar ibn Muhammad Al-Sadiq عليه السلام who said: "The established practice (sunnah) is that jizya is not taken from the mentally ill or those whose intellect is impaired (maghlub ala 'aqlihi)."
