Answer Options
Correct Answer
A.
The treaty established a ten‑year truce, allowed Muslims to return to Mecca unarmed and to perform pilgrimage the next year, and set rules for tribal alliances and defections. It facilitated the spread of Islam by providing a peaceful period for missionary work and by showcasing the Muslims' conduct during the pilgrimage, which attracted many new converts.
B.
The treaty granted Muslims permanent control over Mecca and allowed them to collect taxes from the Quraysh, which they used to fund the expansion of the Islamic state.
C.
The agreement required the Muslims to abandon all military activities and prohibited any further pilgrimages, limiting the spread of Islam to the Arabian Peninsula.

It stipulated that the Quraysh would convert to Islam within two years and that the Muslims would receive a share of the Quraysh's trade profits.
