Step-by-step explanation:

Pros

Christians learned about new foods and and goods by trading with middle East. In addition to trade, Crusaders need for supplies increased the use of money in Europe strengthening it's economy.

Muslims gained exposure to new weapons such as a permanent army. Merchants earned lots of money through trade with Europe. More and more Muslims banded together to fight their common foe.

cons

First of all, many Muslims who fought the battles lost their lives. Then Muslims lost land from many places such as Spain. Lastly, crusaders destroyed Muslim property.

Jews faced many violent persecutions as crusaders crossed northern France and Germany killing Jews. Also, Jews had their holy books and synagogues destroyed by crusader.
