Document C: Fred Donner explains how “… conquest period of granting of gifts, which had been practices by Muhammad, became more regularized and eventually institutionalized.” People who revolted against these “…regimes now did so at the cost of losing the stipends that the regime provided.” This is some of the common knowledge of the Early Islamic Expansion.

The Early Islamic Empire was a place with Muslims, Muhammad, Abu Bakr, and other very significant phenomenonical things
