Islam arrived in Azerbaijan in the 7th century during the Arab conquests. The region was incorporated into the Islamic Caliphate after the Battle of al-Qadisiyyah in 636 AD. Over the subsequent centuries, the spread of Islam was facilitated by trade, cultural exchanges, and the influence of local leaders who adopted the faith. By the 9th century, Islam had become the dominant religion in Azerbaijan, significantly shaping its cultural and social landscape.
