  • No not at all, the conquest of Iberia was not an raising till they converted. It was just one ruling minority(visgoths around 1-2% of the iberian population) gets overthrown by another. The nobility even could in some places stay in power without converting, they had to guarantee safety for Muslims and pay the jizya (tax that is only for non Muslims).

The forced conversion came later under the almoravids and jews where especially targeted, but that was around 400 years later. The Berber where a very small minority, if they would have ruled harshly, they would not reign for long.
