  • King Mansa Musa of Mali, a prominent traveler that took part in a pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca. Musa is trying to fulfill the hajj, one of the five pillars of Islam, because of his wealth and stature. He took along a significant number of slaves, soldiers, camels, and gold on his journey.
  • Mansa Musa's Mecca Journey By: Matthew Klipple
  • Mansa Musa could afford more than just the hajj to Mecca.
  • Musa was dedicated to his faith in Islam and encountered all types of new ideas while incorporating his perspective on them.
  • Mansa Musa traveled from Niani, Mali to Timbuktu. From there, he went to Taghaza, where they found an abundance of salt.
  • Traveling vast and far across the Saharan dessert.
  • Musa continued further to Cairo in their route to the holy city of Mecca. They followed designated trade routes.
  • King Musa of Mali had an abundance of gold and brought it to Cairo where he caused inflation, that left the city recovering for years. Meanwhile in Cairo, Musa had amazed the Egyptian Elite while bringing to life the idea that Islam spreads far beyond the Sahara and suggested that Sub-Saharan state with such power could exist.
  • In his return from the pilgrimage, Musa returned with skilled individuals to build mosques to further spread the Islamic faith throughout Africa. Not only did Musa's pilgrimage make Mali very well known, but it also made his kingdom known for its golden riches.
