Takhrij:
«أخرجه مسلم، الجهاد، باب إخراج اليهود والنصارٰي من جزيرة العرب، حديث:1767.»©Explanation:
From this hadith, it is understood that the Noble Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam desired to expel the disbelievers and the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula.
This could not be fully implemented during his lifetime; however, Umar radi Allahu anhu acted upon the wish and command of the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam (that two religions should not remain in Arabia), and during his caliphate, he exiled the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula.
