The empire was regularly attacked by Arab Muslims.

After the rise of Islam (7th century) Arab armies launched frequent campaigns and raids that led to the loss of Syria, Palestine, Egypt and much of North Africa, major battles like Yarmouk (636), and sieges of Constantinople. While Byzantium sometimes counterattacked, the dominant pattern was sustained Arab military pressure.
