And if they deny you O Muhammad (s) with regard to your coming with the message of God’s Oneness resurrection reckoning and punishment verily other messengers before you were denied in this respect so be steadfast as they were steadfast; and to God all matters are returned in the Hereafter when He will requite the deniers and grant victory to the messengers.

The Prophet (ﷺ) stood before Musailama (the liar) who was sitting with his companions then, and said to
him, "If you ask me for this piece (of palm-leaf stalk), even then I would not give it to you. You
cannot avoid what Allah has ordained for you, and if you turn away from Islam, Allah will surely ruin
you! "
"Abu Ahmad narrated to us from Sufyan (who said): "Alqamah bin Marthad narrated to us' - and it is similar in its meaning, but he added in it: "if they refuse, then take the Jizyah from them, and it they refuse then seek aid from Allah against them."
This is how it was reported from Waki' and others from Sufyan. And other than Muhammad bin Bash-shar reported it from 'Abdur-Rahman bin Mahdi, and he mentioned the matter of the Jizyah in it.
