    Mansa Musa was one of the wealthiest person in human history; famous for his pilgrimage from Niani (the capital city of Mali) to Mecca. Several historians have called into question whether Mansa Musa’s pilgrimage was for religious reasons or not over the years, so was he a Devout Muslim, Or a Opportunist that used his own religion for personal gain? Mansa Musa was a preposterous sultan who used two of the Pillars of Islam as an excuse to make a journey to Mecca to increase his own personal glory in order to insult his enemies by awwing their people with vast quantities of gold and refusing to visit their leaders as he supposedly had to lead one of the largest and most wasteful caravans in human history that held no other purpose than to demonstrate the wealth, splendor, unity, and determination of the mostly non-Muslim people of Mali, in order for Mansa Musa to engrave a fake legacy throughout Northern Africa.…

    According to Malcolm Clark, “Muslims today who want to establish a Muslim state often look to the first Islamic states for models to emulate and for inspiration” (Clark 15). Therefore, to develop an understanding of the Muslim culture, we must review the birth and expansion of Islam. Islam began when the angel Gabriel appeared before Muhammad, telling him that God had declared him as “His last prophet” (Clark 9). This happened in 610 A.D. in Mecca, presently known as Saudi Arabia. Over the course of twenty years, Muhammad spread word of God’s messages, which later became the Qur’an.…

    Ottoman Empire

    The inscription of Suleyman reveals that the Ottoman Empire was a Muslim community. However, not only did this inscription inform readers that religion was existent within this empire during this period of time, but it also reveals a clear distinction of social status amongst this community. It is evident that Suleyman was a rather significant figure within society due to the fact that he is described within the inscription as the 'head of Muhammad's community.' (Stearns, Peter N., Stephen S. Gosch, and Erwin P. Grieshaber., 2003, pp.60) The source provides an outlook on the society at this period in time.…
