Guidance on the hadith: Expel the Jews from the Arabian Peninsula

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you. He says: The hadith "Expel the Jews
the Jews from the Arabian Peninsulaاليهود من جزيرة العرب
Al-Mustadrak lil-Hakim 39:43
" — what is the guidance regarding this hadith?

Answer:
The hadith is authentic and true, but the address is to the rulers. It is the rulers who expel the Jews, the Christians, and the polytheists from the Arabian Peninsula if they are able to do so. Its meaning is that they do not allow them to settle and reside in the lands of the Arabs. However, if they come for work, for embassies, or for the interests between them and the Muslims, there is no harm in that. They came to the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) and entered his mosque and negotiated with him. Their coming for temporary matters and mutual interests, from which the Muslims benefit, is permissible. This does not conflict with expelling them from the Arabian Peninsula, because the intent is that they do not settle and reside there permanently, and that they do not become residents of the Peninsula. That is what is forbidden. However, this is within the authority of the ruler and the one in authority. Yes.
