Read the quotation from Al Omari, an Egyptian historian.

This man [Mansa Musa] spread upon Cairo the flood of his generosity: there was no person, officer of the court, or holder of any office of the Sultanate who did not receive a sum of gold from him.

The correct answer is C) he spent so much money he actually lowered the value of Cairo’s currency.

What the passage states about emperor Musa is that he spent so much money he actually lowered the value of Cairo’s currency.

The passage says that Emperor Musa liked to share his wealth with all the people in Egypt. He was a generous individual that gave sums of gold to his citizens no matter their class. Gold was an abundant mineral in Egypt so Emperor Musa shared it on every occasion to the point of ruining the value of the money in Cairo.
