Did most of the people in the Byzantine empire speak Latin?
Most people in the Byzantine Empire spoke Greek. Latin was the language of government until the reign of Heraclius (Heraklios) I in the early Seventh Century A.D., when it was officially changed to Greek as well.
Was Heraclius a Muslim?
The Roman Emperor, Heraclius accepted Muhammad (S.A.W) as the final messenger of God. You have to understand how intelligent this man was, he was Christian and well studied in Christianity. The true Christian Scriptures, unlike the falsified ones of today, proclaim the Jesus said there will be another prophet after him. That prophet was Muhammad (S.A.W), the seal of the Prophets. Emperor Heraclius believed that Muhammad was the final Prophet but DID express his surprise that he had come from the Arabs as all previous Messengers were from the Hebrews (Jews). Never the less, he accepted Muhammad. The problem is that he knew the people of his empire would reject Muhammad and there would be a revolt. He did however, try to persuade his people to follow Islam. They immediately responded aggressively and tried to break down the doors to his parliamentary building. Seeing this, Heraclius said, "I was only testing your belief in Chrisitianity" It is believed that Heraclius kept his faith a secret. God knows best :) Salaam.

Which people practiced terrorism against Romans as well as Jews who collaborated with them?
Within the Roman Empire, it was only the Jews who practiced guerrilla tactics (not terrorism) against the Romans during their various rebellions. Later in history the Jews revolted against the Byzantine emperor Heraclius and joined the Persian Emperor Khosrau II during the Byzantine-Sasanian War of 602-628. It started during the Siege of Antioch (in Syria) in 613 when the Persians managed to hold on to their conquests in Syria and the Jews joined him and culminated with the conquest of Jerusalem in 614 by a joint Persian-Jewish force. However, this was regular warfare, not guerrilla or terrorism.
