C. The spread of monotheism threatened meccas economy, which relied on the wealth of non-muslim pilgrims.
Explanation:
Muhammad (570-632 d.c) was the founder of the Islam, Muslims believe that he was God's last messenger, and that he was chosen to deliver the word of God. Muhammad's revelation occurred when he was 40 years old, and the following 13 years he faced great opposition from leaders in Mecca mainly because of his message of monotheism (one God).
Leaders in Mecca believed in many gods, and saw their power and economy threatened by Muhammad's words because his message stated equality and individual accountability to God. They feared that Muhammad could seek political power and that if people stopped worshipping their gods, the pilgrimages to Mecca that made them rich could stop too.
Answer:
Indian trade
Explanation:
We don´t have a categoric knowledge about the origins of Islam in Indonesia, but according to historical evidence available, it seems that trade played a major role in the arrival of Islam in Indonesia in the 13th century. Two Muslim trading kingdoms existed in northern Sumatra, Samudra-Pasai and Perlak by then. At Samudra-Pasai, there´s a royal tomb completely inscribed in Arabic dated 1297. Further developments in the region also point at an expansion of trade with India and in the Indian Ocean as a major factor in the spreading of Islam in Indonesia.
