Best Answer

During the time of the Reconquista itself, Christian Spain (which was made up of five or six independent nations that were slowly merging) was actually quite tolerant to Muladíes (Iberian Moslems), Amazigh (Berbers - mostly Moslem, sometimes called Moors), and Arabs (mostly Moslem). These three groups lived as second-class citizens in Christian Spain, which was a demotion from their previous position at the top of the social ladder in whatever Islamic State they had left. Many Moslems found the Christian leaders like Alfonso VI to be more beneficent than their former Moslem rulers. However, at the end of the Reconquista, all of the Moslem population of Spain was ordered to convert, flee, or die at the behest of the Spanish Inquisition.
