Muslims reached as far north as southern France during their early expansion in the 8th century, particularly with the Umayyad conquest of Hispania. The Battle of Tours in 732 marked a significant halt to their advance into Western Europe. In the east, Muslim forces extended into Central Asia and parts of the Indian subcontinent. Overall, their influence and presence extended into various regions of Europe and Asia, but they never established lasting control far beyond these northern limits.
