Art. 15 of Qānūn al-Filāḥa passed in 1830 stipulated that In the event of a fellah hiding himself among the bedouins, wearing their clothes, and being discovered among them afterward . . . the tribesman who hides him will be conscripted into the military service if he is a young man (shabb), and if an old man (ikhtiyār), he will be sent to jail (Liman) for six months.

XREF: Connects to the earlier claims about conscription resistance (loc 471, 472, 593) — here the state legislates against third parties who hide fugitive conscripts, expanding the net of liability. Builds on: "Conscripts universally resisted through desertion and self-inflicted wounds."
