What are three reasons for the success of muslim conquests?

Firstly, the Arabs in Saudi Arabia were already quite warlike - constantly fighting each in petty skirmishes and feudal battles (similar to Feudal Age Europe). With the rise of Islam, the tribes and cities became unified and managed to combine their armies in a single, powerful fighting force (similar to what Genghis Khan did with the Mongol tribes).

Secondly, the Middle East (the Levantine Arabs especially) had been suffering for years under the harsh and often corrupt rule of the Byzantines. The Muslim Arab armies didn't so much conquer the rest of the Middle East as walk into the people's open arms. The Middle Easterners would often rebel against their Byzantine rulers when they heard the Muslims were coming - something that greatly aided their conquests.

Lastly, the Byzantines themselves were fighting battles within their own state and among politicians. Nearly every noble and general had his eyes set on the imperial throne and would willingly (and brutally) kill other Byzantines to get it. Today the very term "Byzantine" has come to mean "corrupt".
