As a result of the Compromise of 1850, slavery continued in Washington DC, but slave trading was banned.
Explanation:
The Compromise of 1850 was a set of legislative initiatives carried out in the United States in 1850 to resolve a series of tensions arising with the colonization of California, driven by the so-called gold fever, and by annexation of territories after the US intervention in Mexico (1846-1848), which gave rise to territorial conflicts and the discussion about the legality of slavery in the new states.

This journey was recorded (in writing) by he himself in a book called <em>Voyage Beyond Three Seas.</em> <u>One subject of controversy or uncertainty was whether he changed his faith or not during the course of his journey as he practiced/observed several Islamic pillars of faith (like fasting during the month of ramadan) which in itself doesn't make him a Muslim as argued by some scholars but could also meant he changed faith as argued by others</u>.
He died on his way back home and perhaps made it difficult to ascertain his faith during the course of the journey.
