Ottoman (Turks)
The Ottoman Empire.
Islam only became an important religion in the Balkans in the 16th century when the Ottoman Empire conquered all of the Balkans.
Traders coming from the north introduced Islam into Nigeria.
Islam had major influence on the Mali Empire .
Constantinople and the Byzantine Empire held the Muslims at bay in the southeast (Balkans) until the rise of the Ottoman Empire in the 1300s and 1400s. In Western Europe, the Frankish Victory by Charles Martel in 732 C.E. at the Battle of Tours (called by the French as the Battle of Poitiers) against the Amazigh and Arab Islamic Forces from Spain, prevented Islam from reaching western and central Europe from the southwest (Iberia).

The one who introduced Islam. Just like Jesus Christ introduced Christianity and Moses with Judaism.
The three religious groups that were in conflict in the Balkans were Islam, Orthodox Christianity, and Roman Catholicism. Each of the religions was fighting for dominance and control of the region.
It was introduced by traders from the Persian Gulf. Hope that helps.
