Yes because the Rashidun Caliphate started at 632 AD and ended in 661 AD so the Umayyad caliphate started and the Umayyad caliphate ended in 749 AD so the Abbasid Caliphate start....
the abbasids defeated the umayyads in the battle of the great zab in ad 750.they did this because the umayyads started ruling like kings.they started hunting and dancing and only kept the Arabs in the top position.they also made non-Arab Muslims pay more taxes than them.people became unhappy with the umayyads and that is why the abbasids started the war.
The Abbasid group took power from the Umayyads in 750. They overthrew the Umayyad Caliphate during the Abbasid Revolution, which was characterized by widespread support from various factions, including discontented non-Arab Muslims and Shi'a supporters. The Abbasids established their capital in Baghdad, marking the beginning of a new era in Islamic history known for its cultural and intellectual flourishing.
Spain was under Muslim control by 750 AD.
The Umayyad Caliphate, which lasted from 661 to 750 CE, was one of the prominent caliphates that expanded into the northern territories, including parts of North Africa and Spain. It was known for its vast territorial expansion and cultural achievements. Following the Umayyads, the Abbasid Caliphate took over, ruling from 750 to 1258 CE, and further influenced the northern regions, especially in terms of trade, culture, and science.
