Not a bit. Muslims actually spread chess, backgammon and dice play across the Middle East, North Africa and Europe between the 7th. and the 11th. century.

The first book of chess problems was written by the Khalif of Baghdad in 772.

The name chess and the phrase checkmate are both direct transliterations from Sanskrit.

From the 8th. century on, chess was part of the required education of Muslim nobility.
