8 0
The African slaves were able to contribute to the elements of jazz are the following:
1. rhythm - It was a trait of African music to use 'polyrhythm' or the superimposing of a single rhythm
2. Blues - it is an important characteristic of Jazz that essentially evolved from the field hollering of the slaves
3. Syncopation - is also a critical part of Jazz because it varies the duration of the same notes being played in a song. This is also done by placing emphasis on beats (strong or weak).
 This evolved from the call and response form used by the slaves when singing.

oksano4ka [1.4K]

Rise

The rise of Islam in Africa and Asia was a consequences of years of military and political strategies as well as missionary work. After the Arab peninsula was united under one leadership of the prophet of Islam, there was enough stability and funding to expand abroad.

Islam grew out of a region that is correctly identified as the Middle East, completely in between both Africa and vast Asia.

The natural expansion of the religion took place in Palestine and to the east in, Syria and Persia up til modern-day Pakistan.

On the west, the expansion was naturally in Egypt and North Africa.

Fall

While Islam never 'Fell' out of Africa, there was a marked decline in Islamic Empires. This was mostly due to European powers who were scrambling for Africa. This saw the English, French, Belgians all conquer large parts of the land and use them for slaves and other trades.
