Sahih al-Bukhari 2338 (Book 41, Hadith 19) #2240
Expulsion of Jews and Christians from Hijaz

SUMMARY: The hadith is about the expulsion of Jews and Christians from Hijaz by Umar, and how they were allowed to stay in Khaibar on the condition that they would do labor and get half of the fruits.

Narrated Ibn 'Umar: 'Umar expelled the Jews and the Christians from Hijaz. When Allah's Messenger had conquered Khaibar, he wanted to expel the Jews from it as its land became the property of Allah, His Apostle, and the Muslims. Allah's Messenger intended to expel the Jews but they requested him to let them stay there on the condition that they would do the labor and get half of the fruits. Allah's Messenger told them, "We will let you stay on thus condition, as long as we wish". So, they (ie Jews) kept on living there until 'Umar forced them to go towards Taima' and Ariha.
حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْمِقْدَامِ، حَدَّثَنَا فُضَيْلُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى، أَخْبَرَنَا نَافِعٌ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ كَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏.‏ وَقَالَ عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ قَالَ حَدَّثَنِي مُوسَى بْنُ عُقْبَةَ عَنْ نَافِعٍ عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ أَنَّ عُمَرَ بْنَ الْخَطَّابِ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ أَجْلَى الْيَهُودَ وَالنَّصَارَى مِنْ أَرْضِ الْحِجَازِ، وَكَانَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ لَمَّا ظَهَرَ عَلَى خَيْبَرَ أَرَادَ إِخْرَاجَ الْيَهُودِ مِنْهَا، وَكَانَتِ الأَرْضُ حِينَ ظَهَرَ عَلَيْهَا لِلَّهِ وَلِرَسُولِهِ وَلِلْمُسْلِمِينَ، وَأَرَادَ إِخْرَاجَ الْيَهُودِ، مِنْهَا فَسَأَلَتِ الْيَهُودُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ لِيُقِرَّهُمْ بِهَا أَنْ يَكْفُوا عَمَلَهَا وَلَهُمْ نِصْفُ الثَّمَرِ، فَقَالَ لَهُمْ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ نُقِرُّكُمْ بِهَا عَلَى ذَلِكَ مَا شِئْنَا ‏"‏‏.‏ فَقَرُّوا بِهَا حَتَّى أَجْلاَهُمْ عُمَرُ إِلَى تَيْمَاءَ وَأَرِيحَاءَ‏.‏

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith talks about how Umar expelled the Jews and Christians from Hijaz. When Prophet Muhammad conquered Khaibar, he wanted to expel them as well but they requested him to let them stay there on the condition that they would do labor and get half of the fruits. Prophet Muhammad agreed to this condition as long as he wished. They stayed until Umar forced them out towards Taima' and Ariha. This hadith teaches us that we should be fair in our dealings with others, even if we are in a position of power or authority over them. We should also be willing to negotiate with people when it is beneficial for both parties involved, rather than resorting immediately to force or violence.
