Hadith.1678 - The Magians (Majus) are subject to the payment of jizya because the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him and his family, said: "Treat them as you treat the People of the Book." They had a prophet named Damasb, whom they killed, and a scripture called Jamasb, which was inscribed on twelve thousand pieces of ox hide, and they burned it.
1678 - وَ اَلْمَجُوسُ تُؤْخَذُ مِنْهُمُ اَلْجِزْيَةُ لِأَنَّ اَلنَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اَللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَ آلِهِ قَالَ «سُنُّوا بِهِمْ سُنَّةَ أَهْلِ اَلْكِتَابِ وَ كَانَ لَهُمْ نَبِيٌّ اِسْمُهُ دَامَسْبُ فَقَتَلُوهُ وَ كِتَابٌ يُقَالُ لَهُ جَامَاسْبُ كَانَ يَقَعُ فِي اِثْنَيْ عَشَرَ أَلْفَ جِلْدِ ثَوْرٍ فَحَرَّقُوهُ ».
