How did islam influence east african culture? how did to come to east africa

Answer:

Islam influenced East Africa in many ways.

Explanation:

By mid-seventeenth century, Islam was already spread in northern Africa after prophet Muhammad moved from 'Mecca' to 'Medina' with his followers. By 18th and 19th century, Arab traders and travellers started spreading Islam across Africa's east coast. After this, they started moving to western and central Sudan.  

Mosques were established as a result of Muslim merchants. In the territories they originated from, the refugees had connections and thus trade soared. Africa had Ivory, gold and the Arabs had Yemeni textiles, Omani pearls, and Arabian incense. Thus, there was a three-way trade which involved spices from India's southwest coast and silk from China.
