not only did charles martel smash them at the battle of tours, he pushed further and won back the territory the muslims had won in europe and kicked them out of europe, the losses of the ummyad caliphate were so massive it caused the fall of the ummyhad caliphate

Oh yeah and the crusades were a revenge attack for the invasion of the gaul
