Compare and contrast the treatment of different religions by rulers of the arab empire.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Let's take the example of the Umayyad Caliphate, which ruled form 661 to 750. The Caliphate did not force people to convert to Islam, but it charged taxes to keep on practicing their own religious beliefs. This money served the Caliphate to invest in better military and continue conquering new lands. Another Caliphate, the Abbasid, that ruled from 750 to 1258, procured to include other people to the Muslim religion. Although it never forced people, they saw the benefits of following the teachings of Islam. That is how, through conquest, religious missions, or trade, Islam spread from the Arabian peninsula through places such as North Africa, Asia, and the Iberian peninsula.
