Umar's Pact

Umar's Pact was an agreement made during the early Islamic period, where Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab promised to protect the rights and properties of non-Muslims, particularly Christians and Jews, living under Muslim rule. It established fair treatment, ensuring they could practice their religion and maintain their communities without fear of persecution. This pact helped foster peaceful coexistence and protected minority rights within a predominantly Muslim society, laying foundational principles for justice and tolerance in Islamic governance.
