The Kingdom of Mali is one of the greatest Islamic countries that emerged in Western Sudan especially and in Africa and the sub-Saharan region in general.

It played an important role in spreading Islam.

Muslims were interested in the composition of geographical books, especially those that are concerned with the geography of the cities where they were concerned with the aspects and manifestations of civilization, the centers of political power, the axes of the collection, the points of defense, the platforms of religion, the population and others.

One of those Muslims is Ibn Battuta's book.

Ibn Battuta, on his journey to the Kingdom, adopted the method of direct observation and description of its kings and sultans and the conditions of the environment, peoples, and personalities.

He spoke of everything he saw, and he did not rely on research and investigation of the events that confront them, but conveyed them as he saw them.

So we noticed that he overlooked some aspects, for example, the geographical location or type of population living in the region, and he was similar in some things with the African traveler (Lyon).

Ibn Battuta showed the most prominent manifestations of luxury and rich people.

It is concluded that there is class differentiation in society, so there are rich and poor people who are landless and slaves.

Thus, we recommend paying heed to the geographical heritage to highlight the Arab-Islamic role in human civilization
