Hazrat Umar Farooq established a land system where conquered territories weren't individually owned, but held in common trust by the Muslim community. Revenue generated from this land was designated for the welfare of Muslims, both contemporary and future generations. Those working the land, regardless of religion, were required to pay land revenue. This revenue-generating status of the land would remain perpetual, even under non-Muslim rule, and revert to its original status upon regaining independence.
