When slavery ended in the United States, freedom still eluded African Americans who were contending with the repressive set of laws known as the black codes. Widely enacted throughout the South following the Civil War—a period called Reconstruction—these laws both limited the rights of Black people and exploited them as a labor source.
In the Kingdom of Thrace, during the reign of Lysimachus—a successor of Alexander the Great who lived from 361 BCE to 281 BCE—an interesting coin was issued. This coin, which featured the head of Alexander the Great with ram’s horns on either side of his crown, was issued in the ancient city of Parium, in the northwestern region of modern-day Turkey.

Flanked with these godlike horns, Alexander attained the status of a deity.

The correct answer is - Ottomans.
The Ottomans were the most influential Islamic Empire of the three that are suggested. The reason for that is that the Ottomans had the largest territory, spread out on three continents, and managed to preserve and strengthen the Islam in a period when the spreading of this religion was mostly stopped.
The Ottomans also managed to capture two of the three most important cities for the Christians, Jerusalem and Constantinople, which was a big victory for the Islam.
They managed to spread the Islam in places where it didn't managed to spread previously, like the Caucasus and the Balkans.
