The term taqiya refers to permitted dishonesty about one's beliefs if faced with persecution. The term dhimmitude is a modern neologism implying servility or submission to Islam by non-Muslims and is used polemically by Islamophobes.

DEFINE: Clarifies two loaded terms: taqiya as permitted dissimulation under persecution, and dhimmitude as a modern Islamophobic neologism.
