"The question of why people convert to Islam has always generated intense feeling. Earlier generations of European scholars believed that conversions to Islam were made at the point of the sword, and that conquered peoples were given the choice of conversion or death. It is now apparent that conversion by force, while not unknown in Muslim countries, was, in fact, rare. Muslim conquerors ordinarily wished to dominate rather than convert, and most conversions to Islam were voluntary. (...) In most cases worldly and spiritual motives for conversion blended together. Moreover, conversion to Islam did not necessarily imply a complete turning from an old to a totally new life. While it entailed the acceptance of new religious beliefs and membership in a new religious community, most converts retained a deep attachment to the cultures and communities from which they came."
Iranians and Turks are not Arabs. SUNNI Arabs force conversions, hence why such occurred throughout thr Arabian penninsula. A mere 40,000 barbaric Arabs also conquered Iran (which was in the midst of civil strife for control) and forced them to convert at swordpoint.
Turkics had a tendency to adapt to cultures of areas they invaded, not force their new vassals to adapt to them image.
THAT'S why we don't see Iranian and Turkish terrorism in countries they immigrate to the way we see Sunni Arabs and so-called Arabs.
Again, the same subanimal c.u.n.t and his cyberbullying agenda strikes again by chasing people through their comments. Noticing how you butthurt f*ggot also upvoted the user down below, how surprising, c.u.n.t! Seriously, don't you have friends or family to hang around with? Don't you have anything to do in your miserable "life" but to cyberbully others? Why can't you just leave people alone? Why can't you just f**k off and die?
Sadly a few outliers don't make it so..... in 2017 we still have this

If you knew anything about the Ottomans then they used to take Christian boys from those lands, castrate them, forced conversion to Islam to serve in the Sultans court.
Then again, Christianity was exactly the same as S. America and parts of Africa can testify to.
MUSLIMS ENFORCED ISLAM WHEREVER THEY DOMINATED? THEN WHY ARMENIA, BULGARIA, CROATIA, ROMANIA, SERBIA, GREECE, UKRAINE, HUNGARY, MACEDONIA, MONTENEGRO AREN'T EVEN A QUARTER MUSLIM WHEN THEY WERE UNDER OTTOMAN CONTROL FOR CENTURIES?
