Yes. It did. The Moors conquered the Iberian Penninsula in the 8th
century and and warred with Christian Europe for nearly 800 years. It
took until 1492 for Christian Europe to drive them off the continent.

In the 9th century, the Moors conquered Sicily and southern Italy.

All that said, the poster ignores that it was the Moors who collected
much ancient Greek and Roman knowledge that had been lost when the
Library at Alexandia burned and the western Roman Empire collapsed.
They recruited Jewish scribes to translate these texts into Latin
which were then distributed throughout Europe bringing vastly
important scientific knowledge to Europe.
The Moors were scientists themselves inventing alegbra and being
competent and detailed observers of the skies. We can thank the Moors
for the creation of modern astronomy out of the superstitious nonsense
of astrology prevalent in Europe at the time.
There were more libraries in Andalusian Spain than in all the rest of
Europe combined. And while London was little more than a collection
of muddy wooden huts, cities like Cordoba and Seville had streetlights
at night and universities that attracted students from all over
Europe, Africa and the middle east.
