It depends on whether you are referring to Islam as a political entity (i.e. the Caliphates) or you are referring to Islam as a religion. The Caliphates were primarily expanded through quick and decisive wars of conquest such as those waged against the Byzantine and Sassanian Empires by Caliphs 'Omar and 'Othman. In terms of the religion, within the empire it was spread through the use of laws designed to promote conversion to Islam (such as unequal taxes, living restrictions, religious restrictions, etc.), but conversion to Islam was not forced upon the conquered peoples unless they were idolaters. Outside of the empire, Islam spread through commerce and trade.

When Muhammad died how far had Islam spread?

Answer 1it was a very small place and he was popular..... Myth... meaning stories parents told there kids and on and on and then there are stories too.Answer 2Mohammed's death did not spread or help to spread Islam. It was actually a detriment to the early spread of Islam. A large minority of Arab tribes had seen converting to Islam as a loyalty pact to Mohammed as opposed to an eternal religion. As a result, when Mohammed died, they considered themselves "released" from Islam. Caliph Abu Bakr was then forced to fight a civil war in Arabia to reunify the seceding Arab tribes into a unified Islamic region. It was not until Caliph Abu Bakr had quelled this dissent that Islam could spread under his successor, Caliph Omar.
