Islam did not contribute to the fall of Rome and the western part of the Roman Empire. This part of the empire fell more than a century before the rise of Islam. This religion contributed to the fall of the eastern part of the Roman Empire (which historians all Byzantine Empire) which existed for nearly 1,000 years after the fall of the western part. It united the Arabs, who went on to take over the Roman territories in Jordan, Palestine, Lebanon, Syria and North Africa. The Ottoman Turks took over Turkey and the European territories and conquered the Capital, Constantinople, bringing down this empire. They were Muslims. However, power, rather than religion was their motivation.
Christianity did not play a part in the fall of the Roman Empire, be it the western part or the eastern part. It became the state religion and part of the fabrics of state and society. Some pagan Roman thought that Christianity had weakened the fighting spirit of the Romans, but this was not the case.
The rise of Islam did not contribute to the fall of the western part of the Roman empire, which occurred about a century earlier. The rise of Islam united the Arabs who went on to conquer territories of the eastern part of the Roman Empire (historians call the eastern part after the fall of the western part Byzantine Empire). They took over Syria, Lebanon, Palestine and the territories in North Africa. Eventually, this empire was brought down by the Ottoman Turks, who were Muslim. However, the Ottomans were more interested on power and expansion than religion.
Christianity did not play any part in the fall of either parts of the Roman Empire. It became the state religion and a unifying element. Some pagan Romans thought that Christianity had weakened the fighting spirit of the Romans, but this was not the case.
The decline of Rome dovetailed with spread of Christianity, and some argue that the rise of the new faith helped contribute to the empire's fall.
The Fall of Rome (No Central Government), The Rise and Fall Holy Roman Empire (Knights, Setting up of Counties), The Viking Raids and their pillaging of Europe (Need for protection) all contributed to the rise of Feudalism in Eurupe
Christianity transformed the religious map of the Roman Empire. It became the religion of the masses of the empire in Late Antiquity. Mainstream Christianity (the early form of the Catholic and the Orthodox churches) became the state religion of the empire, whilst other Christian sects were branded heretic and persecuted, particularly Arian Christianity, which was popular around the empire. Catholicism at that time was called Latin or Western Christianity and it was the religion of the western part of the empire. The Orthodox Church was called Greek or Eastern Christianity and was the religion of the eastern part of the empire. The pagan Roman religion did not disappear, but it became sidelined and was persecuted.

I'd have to say Christianity for certain and with the rise of Islam, then Islam is number two.

There are adherents to single factors, but more people think Rome fell because of a combination of such factors as Christianity, decadence, and military problems. Even the rise of Islam is proposed as the reason for Rome's fall, by some who think the Fall of Rome happened at Constantinople in the 15th Century. Here I am writing about a roughly fifth century fall of Rome (or the western division of the Roman Empire).
The Nestorians spread Christianity all the way across central Asia, reaching China by 635 CE. Political events in China and Mongolia, as well as the rise of Islam, reversed this.
