The correct answer is:
Muslim armies conquered the Persian Empire.
During the 650s and 660s, Islamic conquests expanded rapidly, leading to the establishment of Muslim rule across vast regions, including parts of the former Persian Empire. This was a significant factor in the spread of Islam during that time.
