The story of Bani An-Nadir
وَمَخْرَجِ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِلَيْهِمْ فِي دِيَةِ الرَّجُلَيْنِ، وَمَا أَرَادُوا مِنَ الْغَدْرِ بِرَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ. قَالَ الزُّهْرِيُّ عَنْ عُرْوَةَ كَانَتْ عَلَى رَأْسِ سِتَّةِ أَشْهُرٍ مِنْ وَقْعَةِ بَدْرٍ قَبْلَ أُحُدٍ. وَقَوْلِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى: {هُوَ الَّذِي أَخْرَجَ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا مِنْ أَهْلِ الْكِتَابِ مِنْ دِيَارِهِمْ لأَوَّلِ الْحَشْرِ} وَجَعَلَهُ ابْنُ إِسْحَاقَ بَعْدَ بِئْرِ مَعُونَةَ وَأُحُدٍ.Urwa bin Az-Zubair said, "This incident (i.e., the Ghazwa of Bani An-Nadir) took place six months after the battle of Badr and before the battle of Uhud." And the Statement of Allah جل جلاله: "He it is Who drove out the disbelievers among the people of the Scripture (i.e. the Jews of the tribe of Bani-An-Nadir) from their homes at the first gathering..." (V. 59:2) Ibn Ishaq thinks that it (i.e., that Ghazwa) took place after the (event of) Bi'r Ma'una and (the Ghazwa) of Uhud.

حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّزَّاقِ، أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، عَنْ مُوسَى بْنِ عُقْبَةَ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ ـ رضى الله عنهما ـ قَالَ حَارَبَتِ النَّضِيرُ وَقُرَيْظَةُ، فَأَجْلَى بَنِي النَّضِيرِ، وَأَقَرَّ قُرَيْظَةَ وَمَنَّ عَلَيْهِمْ، حَتَّى حَارَبَتْ قُرَيْظَةُ فَقَتَلَ رِجَالَهُمْ وَقَسَمَ نِسَاءَهُمْ وَأَوْلاَدَهُمْ وَأَمْوَالَهُمْ بَيْنَ الْمُسْلِمِينَ إِلاَّ بَعْضَهُمْ لَحِقُوا بِالنَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَآمَنَهُمْ وَأَسْلَمُوا، وَأَجْلَى يَهُودَ الْمَدِينَةِ كُلَّهُمْ بَنِي قَيْنُقَاعَ وَهُمْ رَهْطُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ سَلاَمٍ وَيَهُودَ بَنِي حَارِثَةَ، وَكُلَّ يَهُودِ الْمَدِينَةِ.
Ibn 'Umar Narrated from:
Bani An-Nadir and Bani Quraiza fought (against the Prophet (ﷺ) violating their peace treaty), so the Prophet exiled Bani An-Nadir and allowed Bani Quraiza to remain at their places (in Medina) taking nothing from them till they fought against the Prophet (ﷺ) again) . He then killed their men and distributed their women, children and property among the Muslims, but some of them came to the Prophet (ﷺ) and he granted them safety, and they embraced Islam. He exiled all the Jews from Medina. They were the Jews of Bani Qainuqa', the tribe of `Abdullah bin Salam and the Jews of Bani Haritha and all the other Jews of Medina.
