Force the non-believing world to submit to Allah?

Sharia means the word path or way,Allah says in ch 45 v 18-Follow the path of your religion not the way of those who know not.for eg division of property rules by Allah is mentioned in ch 4 v 11-12,so we say division of property should be according to Shariah,Prophet Muhammad S.A.W(pbuh) said that the zakah should b 2.5% of savings equal to 85 gms of gold,if we implement shariah law in Sha Allah crime rates will decrease,another example we know in this era situations of rape,molestations are increasing,but if one is God fearing he will always lower his gaze when he sees a non permissible women if all men follow this in sha Allah crime rate will decrease,there R several examples that how shariah will bring peace in this world.

Can you clarify this? I assume that when you say "God's law" you're referring to Sharia, is that correct?

From my understanding Sharia is an essential aspect of Islam, is that not the case?

The Jizya Tax basically excuses the non-muslims from having to fight in the Muslim Military, and ensures that their rights are protected by the ruling Muslim government. The Muslim civilians pay Zakat, Sadaqah, Ushr, and other sorts of religiously determined ''taxes'' (although they are not exactly like taxes, more a religious obligation) which non-muslims are excused from. Non-Muslims need not even be part of the muslim military because may not want to fight nations that belong to their faith.
