Malaysian elections are over about a month or so back and it was really exciting. The results very much favoured the opposition parties due to several reasons, one of them being marginalization of the minorities in Malaysia. Part of the complaint is the perceived Islamization of the country and subsequent erosion of the minority rights.
That point got me thinking about what are the actual laws in Islam regarding non-Muslim minorities. A good article about this issue can be found here where it discussed about non-Muslim minority rights according to the Islamic Shari'ah. I'm going to try and read up some more when I can find the time...will update when I do.
