Spain, France, and Greece
In 711, the Moors invaded Spain from North Africa.
By 732, the Moors had spread as far north as Tours, France, where the great Battle of Tours was fought. This battle resulted in a European victory and prevented further Muslim expansion into Western Europe.
In 1453, the Ottoman Turks successfully conquered Constantinople and the last of the Byzantine Empire. The whole of Greece soon followed in 1460.
Muslim forces never once set foot on English soil.
Cheers!

Mannie has the best answer.
But I would just add that the Muslims (ottomans) attacked and conquered Hungary, Romania and Yugoslavia (Which were parts of the Byzantine Empire). They also controlled parts of Russia and the Ukraine.

Well, recently it was in Spain, a part of Russia, and in England.
However, they were nipping at Europe's heels in the 8th century until Charles Martel stood up to them.
