Answer:

Islam had an extremely important political impact in the Middle East, and also in other areas in Central Asia, India, Pakistan, and some countries in southeast asia like Indonesia.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is that Islam not only became the majority religion in these areas, but also became a political force in its own right.

This is because Islam worked as a force to motivate political change, and also because Islam became political: law became islamic, in the form of sharia law, and the boundaries between religion and state were blurred, so much that some countries of these areas are theocracies (ruled by a religious leader), for example, the Islamic Republic of Iran.
