2. The Huffington Post Blog compares to this primary source of Abraham in both of them talking about how Mansa Musa is a king of a very wealthy empire and that he is considered to be the richest man of all time. 
3. The depiction of Mansa Musa still can not be trusted because Abraham has never visited West Africa. He has only heard of the great Mansa Musa and has never been to his empire to prove it is true.]]> 2016-09-21 13:13:08 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/6exbe5mye53i/wish/125381901 986620 https://padlet.com/87722/6exbe5mye53i/wish/125384596 1. Al-Umari was a Arab historian from Syria. Yes, because he took many accounts of information from reliable sources who were there during the pilgrimage to Mecca
2. The two sources had some similarities both mentioning his wealth except the Catalan Atlas  went more in depth about describing him, such as how religious and generous he is.
3. Mansa Musa was described as a very religious, generous, and courteous man. 
4. I believe that this document was a more accurate depiction of Mansa because Al-Umari personally met others who had recently met Mansa Musa. The sources that Umari received were first hand.]]> 2016-09-21 13:18:17 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/6exbe5mye53i/wish/125384596 986620 https://padlet.com/87722/6exbe5mye53i/wish/125391646 2016-09-21 13:32:34 UTC https://padlet.com/87722/6exbe5mye53i/wish/125391646
