How was Islam spread?? And ettiquettes of war. (questions)

Yeah, when I started learning about Islam, some Muslims talked about Offensive Jihad, in a way, I misunderstood it. I.e. I thought it was the "ISIS" styled one, lool.

Anyways, as brother @Muhammad reminded me of... I shouldn't dwelve too much into stuff like this. But you know, if a kafir comes and asks a question on Islam, or critcises it (Which is OK, afaik, as long as it is not in mockery, or joking, AFAIK), and don't know the question, I say I don't know.

am I obliged to search for the answer and answer him??

Allahu alam.

Why don't Muslims learn their "HISTORIES" properly?

Why don't Muslims employ a critical methodology of investigation into "history" which considers comparatives and the sciences of archaeology, and anthropology, political history and the like? When we can do this, we can take on the questions with confidence - until then, ask your questions on Muslim forums like this one.

So what if Islam was spread by the sword?

As a Muslim I feel proud of that.
