qaṭī'a (English spelling) qatia

… The initial principle was that the land and peasants of conquered territories were not to be distributed to Arab warriors. However, from the beginning of the Umayyad dynasty (661-750), caliphs began to grant private land, called qaṭī'a, to their relatives and favorites, and larger private estates (da'i'a) were established one after another by reclamation of wasteland and enclosure of land. Thus, from the 8th to the 9th centuries, large landholdings by soldiers, bureaucrats, and merchants developed significantly, based on qaṭī'a and da'i'a. …

Based on this tradition of private land ownership, from the 18th and 19th centuries onwards, large landowners and tenant farmers became widespread in the Arab, Iranian and Turkish regions.

 イスラム法においては,土地はすべて信徒共同体(ウンマ)のものとされ,農民はムスリム,非ムスリムの別なくハラージュ(地租)を国家に納めることを原則とし,耕地の私有は認められていなかった。しかし現実には,カリフやスルタンから授与される分与地(カティーアqaṭī‘a)や荒蕪地などの開発によって得られる私領地(ダイアḍay‘a)には,所有権(ミルク)が認められ,これらの土地では奴隷や小作人などを用いた経営が行われていた。この私有地所有の伝統を基礎にして18~19世紀以降,アラブ,イラン,トルコの各地域において,広く大土地所有と小作人を用いた経営とが見られるようになる。…
