3.Expansion during the Umayyad Caliphate
4.Expansion under Suleiman the Magnificent

Answer 1

The correct answer is - a. Expansion under the Prophet Muhammad.

The number 1 marking on the presented map marks the territory that the Prophet Muhammad managed to unify, and expand. It is only a territory limited to the western half of the Arabian Peninsula, but this was the basis from where the Islamic Caliphates expanded and created a huge empire. At its peak, this empire manged to extend across the Middle East, east to Persia, north to the Caucasus Mountains, along the coast of North Africa, and Spain in Europe as its westernmost part. The empire came to an end when the Mongols started their expansion and destroyed the Islamic Caliphates.
