Abstract (EN)

The civilization established by the Umayyads in Spain as a result of the North African conquests lived for many years. However, history repeated itself and this civilization that was established could not escape from being destroyed at a time when it reached its peak. With the takeover of the Narbonne region in France, the Muslims increased their presence in North Andalusia and mostly in the territory of today's France. Andalusian Muslims, who stayed for many years in cities such as Marseille, Lyon and Toulouse, won important victories there. The Andalusian Umayyad state, which emerged with the collapse of the Damascus-centered Umayyad state, was also able to remain in the territory of France. However, during this period when the Andalusian Umayyad state began to decline, a group of Muslim sailors established a small emirate in Fraxinetum and did considerable work in Southern France. Finally, Muslims who lost their power in both southern France and Spain began to be exiled. Moriscos, who immigrated to France by land from Spain, did not find what they hoped for in France, so they asked for help from the Ottoman state. With the initiative of the Ottoman state, Moriscos living in France were able to migrate to different places safely. But it is a pity that in Andalusia, where they achieved great success, Muslims have become refugees and have been subjected to many persecutions.
