can you rewrite this with different paraphrasing and words. Thank you!! Islam was first introduced to Berbers, living in North Africa, by Arab invaders in the 8th century. The Berbers then carried the religion with them along the trade routes to Western Africa, where the majority of the kingdoms converted to Islam in hopes of avoiding attacks from the Berbers (235). The Arabs showed those in West Africa how to create bricks to build more steady structures, and how to accurately maintain records to keep track of what was going on in the African kingdoms. Through this conversion, and interaction with the Arabs, African empires progressed rapidly, with major advancements in architecture and record keeping (236). All of which seemed to have progressed to its society and its development as a society while also promoting a rich and sophisticated culture with Islam which was heavily influential to the West African Society as rulers wanted to use Muslim practice to protect their kingdoms by converting to Islam. Islam had a heavy effect on West Africa's development and a huge influence on its culture and society.
