So God goes around taking things from some and giving them to others? Wouldn't it be better for Him to speak into the heart of one person so they give to others of their own free will?

why ur faith says non-muslim must pay up a tax for not being a muslim in  an occupied/captured  zone. Dem say Allah demands dat. I am sure those dat paying is nah doing it of free will.

Nobody wants to pay for anything freely. Those non-Muslims were paying a tax for certain social services which were being performed by Muslims. The ummah was new and it seemed that the Muslims were willing to perform those services for a fee. In today's world, that is still regarded as a tax and is paid by people all over the world for similar services so Muslims and non-Muslims alike pay those taxes nowadays. Muslims and non-Muslims alike also receive those taxes. Allah doesn't demand things from anyone because Allah doesn't need anything from anyone. The Qur'an teaches what people can do to elevate their standings both in this world as well as the hereafter. The situation you cited is completely different from your comment on how "God operates".
