Explain the HISTORICAL CONTEXT to the Q and A below
Based on Ibn Battutas description of the sultan of Sumatra in the first paragraph, his point of view could most likely be characterized as that of a
A- Sunni Muslim jurist who believes that a Muslim ruler should patronize the religious elite and seek to expand islam

PARAGRAPH ONE: After leaving India we arrived in Sumatra. It is a fertile area in which coco-palm, clove, indian aloe, mango and sweet orange trees grow. Local commerce is facilitated by tin and Chinese gold. The Sultan was informed of our visit and sent the judge and experts on islamic law to meet me. The sultan is an illustrious and generous ruler and a patron of religious scholars. He is constantly waging war against the non-muslims of Sumatra, but is a humble man who walks on foot to Friday prayers. The non muslims of the area must pay a poll-tax to obtain peace.
