The problem was that they did not rely on the technology of the west side of the world and they were relentless of having their aid. All of the Early Modern Muslim empires failed to take the West seriously as an international challenger. The empires all fell behind Western innovation and advancement. Another common factor had to do with the succesions. The big problem was that some rulers were against that and because of that problem they did not want to yield and they killed the ones who toguht could be their succesors.
