The crusades, originally intended to save the Byzantine Empire, among other things, failed to do this and hastened its decline instead. The crusaders sacked Byzantine cities and eventually captured Constantinople in 1204. They then used Constantinople as the capital of what is called the Latin Empire, which it remained, until the Byzantines managed to recapture it in 1264. The Byzantine Empire never really recovered from this, though it held on for almost another 200 years.

The underlying premise of the question is incorrect. The Byzantine Empire never converted to Islam and Islam was, by and large, illegal within the Byzantine Empire for as long as it existed. The reason why the territory formerly controlled by the Byzantine Empire became Muslim-majority was because it was conquered by various Islamic States such as the Rashidun Caliphate, the Umayyad Caliphate, the Seljuq Turkish Empire, and the Ottoman Empire (which finished the job).

Did the Byzantine empire decline before or after Islam spread-?
The Byzantine Empire declined after Islam spread. The words "Islam spread" are nebulous. If the question is referring to the Rise of Islam period, when Mohammed and the Rightly-Guided Caliphs were spreading Islam, then yes, the Byzantine Empire decline after these events.
