Notes on the Muslim System of Pensions
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 24 December 2009
Extract
Every history book describes the system of registration and pensions (dīwān) set up by 'Umar I and the reform attempted by 'Umar II. Wellhausen set out the causes of dissatisfaction with it, the larger sums given to the Syrians, the desire of converts to share equally with the Arabs, and the resentment of the Arabs at the government keeping much of the money instead of handing it all over to the fighters who had earned it. These notes do not claim to be exhaustive but throw some light on the working and intricacies of the system.
