You wrote one minute please' and you needed 'detailed answers' for following questions ..

In one minute I can only say that detailed answers for these questions can be found in 'The preaching of Islam' by Sir Thomas Arnold .. Chapter 4 of the book 'The spread of Islam among the Christian nations of Africa' and Chap 11 'The spread of Islam in Africa' can provide you with sufficient detail relating your questions ..

PS: Please do not mind any attempted humour above .. I'm busy with my exams, so it's difficult for me to deal anything in detail at the moment ..

Regards ..

When Muslim Arabs arrived in Algeria in the mid-7th century, a large number of locals converted to the new faith. After the fall of the Umayyad Arab Dynasty in 751, numerous local Berber dynasties emerged. Amongst those dynasties were the Aghlabids, Almohads, Abdalwadid, Zirids, Rustamids, Hammadids, Almoravids and theFatimids.
Algeria was made part of the Ottoman Empire by Hayreddin Barbarossa and his brother Aruj in 1517.
