Sahih al-Bukhari 6687 (Book 89, Hadith 5)
So we went along with him till we reached Bait-al-Midras (a place where the Torah used to be recited
and all the Jews of the town used to gather). The Prophet (ﷺ) stood up and addressed them, “O Assembly
of Jews! Embrace Islam and you will be safe!” The Jews replied, “O Aba-l-Qasim! You have
conveyed Allah’s message to us.” The Prophet (ﷺ) said, “That is what I want (from you).” He repeated his
first statement for the second time, and they said, “You have conveyed Allah’s message, O Aba-l-
Qasim.” Then he said it for the third time and added, “You should Know that the earth belongs to
Allah and His Apostle, and I want to exile you fro,,, this land, so whoever among you owns some
property, can sell it, otherwise you should know that the Earth belongs to Allah and His Apostle.”
