In a short article forthcoming in the George Mason University Civil Rights Law Journal, I examine the work of the scholar Ba’at Yeor, the leading scholar of dhimmitude (the inferior status of Christians, Jews, and, sometimes, other religious groups) under traditional Islamic law. The article looks in particular at the effect of the Shari’a rule that the dhimmi are forbidden to possess arms, or to defend themselves against a Muslim. The final section of the article suggests that at the many American educational institutions where pretend “gun-free” zones have been created, law-abiding adults have been rendered as defenseless against marauders as were the dhimmi of earlier centuries.
