From the Paper:

"In the early 600's, the Islamic faith began to spread when Muhammad recited the Qur'an, and he united the nomadic tribes of Arabia (which is located in the present day Saudi Arabia, Yemen, United Arab Emirates, and Oman). When Muhammad died in 632 A.D., which started a dispute on who would continue to lead the Islam faith known as the Ridda Wars. Despite the separation of different factions, the Islamic faith spread to the Atlantic Ocean to the west, and to Central Asia in the east. Major world empires like Abbasids, Mughals, Seljuk Turks, and the Ottoman empires came about because of this spreading after the groups somewhat resolved their problems. These subsequent empires became technologically advanced, and became cultural centers (Britannica). "
