Explanation:

When Islam spread into North - Africa, rulers often converted due to a combination of religious conviction and economic incentives. Conversion could open up trade networks and political alliances within the Islamic world. Forcing subjects to convert was not the main political impact. Mansa Musa was a well - known convert but not the only one. Rulers did not convert solely for economic gain without any religious motivation.
