Muslims had been formally expelled from Spain prior to the Spanish Inquisition. Some Muslims converted to Christianity openly, but practiced Islam in secret. The Spanish Inquisition set out to find which Muslims had not truly converted and would torture any suspects that, in their view, were secretly practicing Islam. The Spanish Inquisition reached its height in the mid-1500s and was not disbanded until the 1830s.
