Muhammad unified by Arab people by the power of prayer and his speeches. It was under the Islamic religion in which he unified the Arab people.
It was unified politically.
The burning of Baghdad effectively ended the Abbassid Empire and confirmed what most Muslims had already suspected for generations, which was that the idea of a unified Islamic World would remain an object of the past.
First of all, "the Muslims" have not been politically unified for centuries. Often the worst enemy for a particular Islamic Empire would be another Islamic Empire. In Spain, for example, during the Taifa Kingdoms period, Islamic States would often solicit help from Christian States in the north to jointly launch an attack on a different Islamic State. On other occasions, Islamic Empires fought against Christian States, Hindu States, Sikh States, Buddhist States, and Animist States. Currently, the greatest amount of Muslims' angst and hatred is directed at the world's only Jewish State.

There is no Islamic Empire.
When Islam first started, it spread with a speed that was really astonishing. This produced a very large empire that was unified because people were conquering and had not got around to governing and looking after their own personal powers. The unified empire lasted for only a very short time.
Islam as a religion is the glue that holds the Islamic World together.
Places are geographically unified when they're not separated by major obstacles, like mountain ranges or bodies of water. Places are politically unified when they are ruled by a single government. Hawaii is not geographically unified with the continental US, but they are politically unified as they share the same federal government. Northern Ireland and Ireland are geographically unified, the border is entirely artificial with no geographic features separating them, but they have different governments that do not intersect at any level. Therefore they are not politically unified.
The Islamic Empire and the Catholic Church differed primarily in their foundational beliefs and governance. The Islamic Empire was a political and religious entity where the caliph was both a spiritual leader and a ruler, emphasizing the unity of religion and state. In contrast, the Catholic Church, as a religious institution, operated independently of secular governments, with the Pope serving as a spiritual authority but lacking direct political power. Additionally, the Islamic Empire embraced a diverse range of cultures and interpretations of Islam, while the Catholic Church sought to maintain a unified doctrine and practice among its followers.
The title of the Islamic Empire was Caliphate. The Caliph was called Amir-ul-Momineen.
