Which of the following statements best describes islam's spread from the seventh through the 17th century?

military conquests by the arab empire and traders of islamic faith were the primary means for spreading islam to africa, europe, and asia.

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.

after a more than a decade and a half of combating al qaeda (aq) in afghanistan and pakistan,

the united states faces a diverse array of threats from al qaeda affiliates in the middle east and

africa. while senior al qaeda figures reportedly remain based in pakistan, the network includes

a number of affiliates across the middle east and africa including al qaeda in the arabian

peninsula (aqap), al qaeda in the islamic maghreb (aqim), and al shabaab. al qaeda also

retains a small but possibly growing presence in afghanistan. u.s. officials have stated that al

qaeda still maintains a foothold in syria through its ties to hay’at tahrir al sham (formerly

known as the nusra front), though the exact nature of that relationship may be evolving. this

report examines the threat posed by al qaeda affiliates in the middle east and africa as described

by u.s. officials and outside observers, as well as the u.s. approach to date in responding to these

threats. this was all i could find hope this : )
