Islam spread so quickly, because of trade, devoted followers and invasion of armies. Trade helped Islam spread quickly. According to Doc A, Mecca was prosperous and important since it was at the crossroads of caravan trade.

Another way that trade spread was by devoted followers.
Islam spread within a span of 100 years. In 610, Muhammad made a visit to a cave on Mount Hira to pray. This experience changed his life and he realized that Allah was the one true god.

Muslims, those who follow this religion, have believed this since 622 C.E. The religion was established by Muhammad, in present-day Mecca. Mecca is located in the Arabian Peninsula, but now that is not the only place the religion is practiced and followed.
The Islamic empire was situated directly between two powerhouses: Europe and China. They had managed to fend off conquest by the Arabs, who were taking over land from Spain to India, but they were struggling. Both were infested with plagues that killed off hundreds of thousand of citizens. Europe was stuck in the Middle Ages, where trade was nonexistent and medicine primarily consisted of guesswork and foolish ideas. China’s merchants were on the bottom of society, and so trade suffered there, on top of an eventual Mongol threat.
Numerous authors and historians have found inspiration and fascination in the myths, realities, and legacies of the American frontier. Bruce Catton, a Pulitzer Prize-winning Civil War historian, wrote a memoir of his youth in a small town in western Michigan created by religious idealists in the late 1800s. Waiting for the Morning Train is a nostalgic and lyrical depiction of an earlier time period, as well as a reflection on the personal and social changes that Catton experienced growing up around the turn of the twentieth century. In this paper, I will focus on one of Catton's primary themes, the impact of the lumber business on the environment and the economy of Michigan. I'll look at how Catton watched his state's shift from wilderness

The battle between the Muslims and Greeks, the Muslims were presented as having no match against Greeks military shown in Doc A. As it states, “In this battle 24,000 Muslims took part,” (Doc A).
The spread of Islam began when the prophet Muhammad received the word of god and believed it was his obligation to spread his religion. He gained many followers but eventually dies in the city of Mecca. By that time his religion already grew at an extensive amount, and soon Muslim empires were created, which extended Islam's political and religious power. Many factors such as trade routes and the person named Mansa Musa, contributed an enormous amount to the spread of Islam throughout parts of Asia, North and West Africa, and parts of Europe. The Islamic Empires did a lot of work themselves to help spread their religion.
Muhammad refers to the people of the book, as in the people of the bible such as those in Spain believing in Christianity. By maintaining peace between these other religions, citizens of other faiths willingly contributed to the Islamic empire. They participated in the community like citizens of the Islamic faith, sharing ideas and partaking in trade. The religion was able to expand with the conversion of people from other religions, but more importantly the accepting nature of this religion made other Islamic innovations

Mecca, the center of Islamic practice, is situated on the Arabian Peninsula. The Arabian Peninsula is surrounded by many bodies of water, making it a great center of trade. The second reason Islam spread so quickly was because of its beliefs and morals. The appeal of Islam to people was a very great factor into why Islam spread so quickly.
Conspecific interactions help determine how effective an individual is in its environment (Hellman & Hamilton 2014). Neolamprologus pulcher, or chchlids, are a social species that live in cooperatively breeding groups who also interact with neighboring groups (Hellman & Hamilton 2014). One interaction within the species that was studied was the aggressive interactions with a predator based on the presence or absence of neighbors (Hellman & Hamilton 2014).
