They were only a ruling class and small in number. There was very little migration from the Maghreb to Spain and Sicily.
And back then, the people of the Western Mediterranean were not so different. The change in demographics happened with the rise of the Ottoman Empire.

After Danish and Norwegian Vikings settled in Normandy France, in the 11th century, they fucked up England, and went on to "liberate" Sicily.
The Muslims were allowed to stay at first. but were removed later, because their numbers were small.
