Right, despite Mo's prediction, Umar only cleansed them (and all the other non-Muslims) from the Hijaz area. We have gone over this already Gandalf. It took until modern times for Muslims to fullfill Mo's prophecy for all the Jews in Arabia.
Do you understand nothing? There are still Jews in Arabia. There are Jews today in Yemen, Qatar, Iraq, Morocco, Algeria, Palestine, Syria and probably elsewhere.
The prophesy is understood to have meant the Arab heartland which is accepted as either the Hijaz region.
The only Jews in the Arab heartland lived around the settlement of Madina. This was because they were waiting for a promised prophet to arrive there.
When a prophet arrived, only half a dozen rabbis accepted him. The rest of the Jews did not want to accept a prophet who was not from their own tribe. The remaining Jews around Madina, despite making peace treaties, continuously demonstrated hostility to the Muslims and the Islamic state.
