Islam reached North, Sub-Saharan, and East Africa, but did not take hold in Asia.
The Arab Empire rejected military conquest; therefore, trade and missionaries were the primary means for spreading Islam beyond the Arabian Peninsula.
The spread of Islam was limited to the areas of the Arabian Peninsula where Muhammad traveled.
