Question

Which of the following statements best describes the expansion of Islam?

Answer 1

A. It became the dominant religion in the Middle East and Europe.
B. It quickly spread throughout the Middle East and North Africa.
C. It spread from the Middle East to India and China.
D. It took several centuries for it to expand beyond the Arabian Peninsula.

Answer 2

I'd go with (B) myself, that it quickly spread throughout the Middle East and North Africa. This was especially true following Muhammad's death as his followers quickly spread Islam throughout the region, unifying tribes and creating an engine of empire culminating in the Umayyad, and following them, Abbasid, caliphates.
