Answer:

Correct answer is C. He gave away so much gold that the value plummeted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is not correct because Musa died before the great plague that devastated many people, especially in Europe in the middle of 14th Century.

Option C is correct as during that pilgrimage he gave so many gold that it created inflation.
