Why did Ghana's kings practice both Islamic and their own traditional religion?
Ghana's Kings did not practice both religions at the same time. They first practiced local traditional religions and when Islam arrived in Ghana, they converted to Islam, but kept some distinctive touches from their traditional religions. They did not start as Muslims since Islam had not reached them yet. They converted to Islam because they were convinced it was correct. They kept small touches of their original religion out of loyalty to their history, culture, and those Ghanians who had not converted to Islam.
