Christians don't truly believe in god , plain and simple

they are full of self doubt and take no action in their lives that would put themselves in danger for they question if heaven truly exists

I think it's just a matter of Middle East being unwilling to resolve conflicts decisively so they just keep a war of attrition where Christians become increasingly limited to the loyalest ones and Muslims free to take any converts without the opposite.

Christian societies tend to surround themselves with Christians. Muslims live among non-Muslims while ignoring them.

Islam has the unique aspect of it fashioning itself as the conclusion of God's communication with mankind in the Abrahamic tradition and the ultimate way to live life. With respect to this it makes little sense for a muslim to convert to what would be seen as a flawed and unpolished version of God's word. This also helps create a sense of urgency to convert others of the Abrahamic faiths in addition to severely limiting the tolerance for heresy. In this sense Islam is naturally more prone to zealotry than the other Abrahamic faiths. Only Judaism comes close and only because of a tradition of telling others to fuck off when facing forced conversion (sanctifying the name of god).

Christianity not only had to struggle to gain converts making it the underdog's religion for many years, but also suffered greatly by lacking the knowledge base of how to make the Abrahamic tradition attractive to a wider audience. Judaism was limited to a small ethno-religious group that seldom accepted converts. Christianity had to remake everything to appeal to non-jews. Islam did not have to suffer nearly as much in growing pains when there was already a great example across the desert in the ERE of how to get people to practice your faith. Martyrdom for the faith had by that point transformed into the idea that force-converting others by the sword was the ultimate form of religious piety. Islam merely needed to emmulate existing constructs of zealotry that were very successful across the Christian world and pair it with the conclusionary nature of the Islamic prophecy to create what might be seen as the ultimate form of religious dogma.

Christianity became the majority in Zoroastrian-controlled lands during active persecution, actually increased after Constantine. There were more Jews there, though.

Christian theology is weaker
