Islam started by start of universe creation as it means full submission to God the Creator. However, Islam per Quran revelation to prophet Muhammad (PBUH) started first in secret then Muslims migrated to Ethiopia to escape the tyranny of pagans of Makkah (or Mecca) people. Then they migrated to AlMadina (or Medina) and prophet Muhammad (PBUH) joined them. The pagans continued to attack Muslims in Medina and Muslims defended themselves and gained more converts to Islam and hence got more power. Islam spread to other areas in the Arabian peninsula and North Africa when they were called by the natives of these areas to free their will and allow them to practice their faiths freely and openly. Prophet Mohammad himself raided caravans and made wars upon the pagans who attacked Muslims and invaded their lands and homes. Then, Muslims invaded the Persian and Byzantine empires and Egypt and North Africa and freed the will of their people to select their own faith and beliefs. Refer to question below.
