How come Arabs didn't just go lower and conquer all of Africa? Like they attempted in Europe?

the farther south you went, the more they lived like animals and were impossible to civilize with islam.

niggers

They were trying to get out of the heat
Don't know my African history well, but the Sahara desert is a natural barrier between North Africa and the rest, any forces moving down south have to use rivers or the coast which would make natural choke points

Allah told them if they fucked apes they would get AIDS.
So they stick with their goats.

Dude, Mali, Djibuti, Somalia, Tshad and parts of Niger, Nigeria are muslim too.
Because it was near enough impossible to just walk to sub Sahara Africa, there was only suffient infrastructure to transport people down the continent when the British started building railways.

It had nothing good to conquer. They didn't believe niggers could be civilized and taught so they lacked the numbers and the will to even colonize it properly. Conquering the white kingdoms held much more promise of riches, new converts and an impressive infrastructure they could use for their benefit.

they needed to keep most of africa not islamic because it's forbidden to take muslims as slaves
jungle and desert wasn't worth the effort back then, just like Siberia
>>77081770
Because the more to the south you go, the worse the niggers are.
Also, you forgot Eritrea and Somalia
>>77081770
Cause its too big for conquest without trains. Arab traders did lot of slavery work over there though.
there's no gibs down there
>>77081770
Too many niggers.

Africa is worthless in terms of resources
>Saharan desert
Yay lets move out of the desert and conquer more desert
>Congo Jungle
Yay lets conquer a bunch of jungle with extremely infertile soil and tons of mosquitos carrying diseases. I've always wanted to die of malaria.
>South African Bush
Yay this area is still worthless for anything except minerals but hey we only had to march thousands of kilometers to settle this region. Now we only need to ship these minerals tens of thousands of miles and the Suez canal still doesn't exist.
Abyssinia is actually fairly fertile and the Muslims did try to conquer it, they simply never succeeded.
