It is an extremely unfortunate and pathetic chapter of Islamic History. The Muslims in Spain were put to sword, forced to convert to Christianity or forced to flee from Spain. Within a short period Spain was cleared of the Muslims where the Jews and the Christians had been living in peace for many centuries under the Muslim rule.
The Catholic Church in Spain, and the Spanish Inquisition, either killed, expelled or forced the Jews and Muslims in Spain to convert.
The Spanish re conquered most of the peninsula iberique witch was then under the Muslim rule. when the reconquista was over Ferdinand and Isabelle took the throne.
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.
in 1492 Isabella of Castille and her husband Ferdinand of Aragon forced the Moores to surrender at Grenada. This would end the official rule of the Muslims in Spain. The Spanish Inquisition also hugely decreased Muslim's presence.
The Spanish started the Reconquista to reclaim the land from the Muslims.
But the Reconquista, or Reconquest, was not complete until 1492. In 1479, King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Queen Isabella of Castile married, uniting their kingdoms, and thirteen years later their armies expelled the Muslims from Granada.
