Early Christianity in Asia and Africa

It did happen on both sides but there was not a systematic plan at least early on.  Once the muslims faced an existential threat like that of the Mongols that did change.  And, the xtians were entirely willing to slaughter muslims wherever they found them and had been since the Crusades.
