What effect did Charles Martel's defeat of the Muslims in France in 732 have on the expansion of Islam?
GRADPOINT: It prevented Islam into expanding into Western Europe.
Others might disagree, but I think the more important operations were going on in Spain, far to the south, where the Christians of Asturias were regrouping to confront the Muslims who had conquered their land. The number in the Muslim army is unknown, but it is reckoned to be logistically impossible for them to have had more than 50,000 men. They were a long way outside their territory at the Battle of Tours, and the Christians in Spain could have threatened their lines of communications. These are a important considerations, because it means they could be defeated by scorched earth policy even if the Franks had lost the Battle of Tours.
So what I am suggesting is that the Muslim incursion was probably doomed even if Charles Martel had lost, provided the Franks were determined to resist.
