I know for a fact that line Items 3, and 5 need an asterisk. No.3 becasue Egypt was Monophysite and they saw the Romans as occupiers not guardians, the Egyptians hailed the Moslems as liberators. No.5 becasue Mohammed the Conqueror (Ironically his capitol was at Adrianople, the first Roman loss to "barbarians" in some 300 years within the Empire in 375), can thank his victory to German and Hungarian MErcenary connons, without those Guns the Ottomans would still be standing outside Canstantinople's walls.
In addition you forget perhaps the two greatest Moslem generals, Sulieman the Magnificent and Tamerlane, I can understand Suleiman he was around in the 1600s, but why not Tamerlane he conquered all of India save the exterme southern tip.
