Shelf by nono umasy
The Muslim conquest of the Levant, also known as the Arab expansion, was a pivotal historical event that took place during the 7th century. Beginning in 634 CE, Islamic forces led by Caliph Abu Bakr and subsequently Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab embarked on a series of military campaigns that ultimately resulted in the Arab-Muslim control of the Levant region, including modern-day Syria, Palestine, Jordan, and parts of Lebanon. This conquest played a crucial role in the spread of Islam and reshaped the political and religious landscape of the Middle East, marking a significant chapter in both Islamic history and the history of the Levant.
