How crucial was the battle of Poitiers (732 a.c) to stop the muslim expansion across Europe?

by Khunter02

I have heard that this battle was the turning point in stopping the muslim conquests in Europe, and after that point the muslim expansion from the iberic peninsula was forced to a complete halt

Is this true? Would we have a very different situation if the muslims won the battle? And, do people attribute to much importance to an event that would have happened anyway, regarless of the battle itself?
