Question

which was an unintended result of musa’s pilgrimage to mecca?
because he was a
powerful figure, musa
inspired others to make a
pilgrimage.
musa successfully brought
islam to european and
middle eastern nations.
middle eastern nations
benefited from the wealth
musa brought with him.
europeans developed an
increased desire to explore
african wealth.

Explanation:

Musa's pilgrimage showcased his wealth (from Mali's gold/salt). Europeans learned of African wealth, sparking exploration interest (unintended, as his goal was religious). Other options: inspiring pilgrimages was likely intended; bringing Islam to Europe/Middle East is inaccurate (Islam was already in Middle East, Europe’s contact was limited); Middle Eastern nations benefiting was less impactful than Europe’s exploration desire.

Answer:

D. Europeans developed an increased desire to explore African wealth. (Assuming the bottom - left option is D; if options are labeled as A (top - left), B (top - middle), C (top - right), D (bottom - left), then the answer is D. Europeans developed an increased desire to explore African wealth.)
