I am not advocating for imposing a new religion over them I'm just saying Islam became the religion of the Middle East and North Africa through war and conquest. Christianity, Zoroastrianism, their ancient pagan religions, almost any other religion would be preferable to Islam.

first islam converted millions of people, they supported it for whatever reason and they wanted to fight for muhhammad and their later islamic leaders. Why are the people of afghanistan just letting the taliban take over without a fight right now? Because they're islamic and support the taliban, want them in charge instead of the US. To them, any other religion is not preferable to islam. Otherwise they'd become christian or jewish or buddhist or literally anything instead. Why do they like islam? Because it's the most based religion. It's easy to see why it is attractive.
