Islam as a religion was not actually spread by Arab armies at all; it was spread by (1) using discriminatory legislation within territories controlled by the Arab Islamic Caliphates to promote conversion to Islam and (2) sending missionaries and business people to areas outside of the Caliphates to convert foreign dignitaries and subjects.

As for "Islam" as a euphemism for the countries where Islam was an official religion, these empires ONLY expanded through conquest. Unlike European dynasties where territories would be added or subtracted based on strategic marriages, the leaders of Islamic Empires intentionally married women who had no nobility or claims to territory to prevent the rise of a potent aristocracy with familial connections to the throne.

Did Islam spread considerably under the leadership of Abu Bakr and the success of Muslim armies?

Under Abu Bakr, Islam only regained ground lost in the dissension that occurred among the tribes that had united with Mohammed during the Prophet's life. Islam did spread considerably during the reigns of the subsequent Caliphs due to the conquests of Islamic Armies. 'Omar, 'Othman, 'Ali, Mu'awiya, and Yazid I all expanded the reach of Islam through successful attacks on non-Muslim States or regions. _______________________________________________________________ The role of Islamic armies was just to free the will of oppressed people and to leave them to select or maintain the faith that they believe in freely. Islam spread mainly due to its logic beliefs, authenticity of Quran, good morals, and honesty. refer to questions below for more details.


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. If, however, you are referring to the Seljuk and Ottoman conquests of Anatolia nearly 600 years later which eventually ended the Byzantine Empire, the Empire was in decline long before these armies trampled the Byzantines to the ground. The answer is more complex than the above answers would purport. See the link below for another relevant answer.

Islamic Armies were to defend Islam and Muslims, to give people free will, and remove the oppressions imposed on them. Islam was nor spread by war and armies.
