Amid Zanjani wrote the book *Rights of Minorities* to provide a jurisprudential explanation of the relations and interactions of the Dar al-Islam with non-Muslim nations and groups in both civil and international dimensions (page fourteen) and organized it into six chapters. The first chapter explains the concept and extent of protection for minorities in international positive law, and the second chapter details the rights of minorities within the framework of bilateral contracts and political and international treaties. The third through sixth chapters are dedicated, respectively, to the jurisprudential examination of the dhimma contract, the responsibilities of the parties, especially the financial obligation of jizya and [[taxation|kharaj]], the duties of the Islamic community towards its allies, and the termination and breach of the dhimma contract.
