And the entirety of India (until the Brits arrived) was "controlled" by the Mogul Empire, which was mainly Muslim. Even Spain/Iberia had a huge Muslim population, until the Reconquesta Kingdoms committed large scale genocide and deportions of Muslims and Jews.

In fact, they allied with the Mamluk kingdom of Egypt against Holugu, leader of another Mongol horde, Ilkhanate.
