Conversion to new religion often occurred due to the promise of new olive branch and other reasons, e.g., houris in heaven, share of earthly loot, non payment of Zizya, aggressive proselytization, torture by the early ruling class etc. Primitive rulers in Islam didn't encourage conversion as that would lower the revenue, but the clergy did. Ultimately, the converted outweighed the invaders. For centuries the converted were allowed to retain their earlier traditions, then reforms were made towards more orthodoxy.

Mr. Asghar,
People abandon their ancestral religions to join other faiths for many reasons. Here is one video of Dr. Nabeel Qureshi, who explains why and how he converted to Christianity.
