What is the rebuttal to the specious claims that Islam persecutes non-Muslims and contradicts the principle of "there is no compulsion in religion," which are based on the hadith about expelling Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula, and the hadith "I have been commanded to fight the people until they testify that there is no god but Allah"?

Justifying the fight against Jews, Christians, and polytheists who warred against Islam and its people, and attempted to kill the Prophet, peace be upon him, necessitates securing the Arabian Peninsula by expelling those whose treachery is feared. Umar expelled the Jews from Khaybar after they violated their covenant. Scholars differed as to whether "the Peninsula" refers to Mecca, Medina, and their surroundings, or the entire Arabian Peninsula.
