## Asalin magabacin Musa
An sami ɗan ruɗani game da ainihin mansa da ke da alhakin tafiyar.  Littafin Al-Umari na lissafin Musa bai ambaci sunan mansa ba, abin da ke nuni da cewa shi ne magabacin Musa.  A cewar masanin tarihin Balarabe Ibn Khaldun, ya rubuta shekaru da yawa bayan haka, magajin Musa a matsayin mansa shi ne Muhammad ibn Qu.

## Tafsiri
Ba a taɓa samun wata shaida mara gardama ta dangantakar da ke tsakanin Afirka da Amirka kafin Colombia ba.  Ba tare da la’akari da ko daya daga cikin jiragen na Mali ya taba isa nahiyar Amurka ba, da alama ba su taba komawa nahiyar Afirka ba, kuma babu wani sakamako na tattalin arziki na dogon lokaci da tafiyar ta haifar. 

Kogin da ke kan teku wanda wanda ya tsira daga balaguron farko ya kwatanta shi ne mai yiwuwa Canary Current .  Shigar da wannan gaskiyar a cikin labarin Musa ya nuna cewa Musa yana da ɗan sanin yanayin yanayin tekun Atlantika. Canary Current yana gudana daga Afirka ta Yamma zuwa Amurka, wanda zai sauƙaƙe tafiya daga Afirka zuwa Amurka amma ya hana shi ta wata hanya. 

Ivan van Sertima da mai bincike dan kasar Mali Gaoussou Diawara sun ba da shawarar cewa tafiyar ta isa Sabuwar Duniya .   Van Sertima ya buga taƙaitaccen tarihin Columbus ɗin da Bartolomé de las Casas ya yi, bisa ga abin da manufar balaguron balaguro na uku na Columbus shine don gwada ikirari biyu na Sarki John II na Portugal cewa "an gano kwale-kwalen da suka tashi daga bakin tekun Guinea [Yammacin Afirka] kuma suka tashi zuwa yamma tare da kayayyaki" da kuma a cikin iƙirarin 'yan asalin yankin Caribbean na kudu maso yammacin ƙasarsa. kuma kudu maso gabas sun zo baƙar fata waɗanda aka yi mashinsu da ƙarfe mai suna guanín&nbsp;... daga ciki aka same shi na kashi 32: 18 zinare ne, 6 azurfa, da tagulla guda 8.”  

Duk da haka, malamai suna jayayya akan duk wani balaguron balaguron da ya isa Amurka, da kuma cewa babu isassun dalilan da za a iya ɗauka cewa an yi hulɗa tsakanin Afirka da Sabuwar Duniya a kowane lokaci a zamanin mulkin Columbia.

Babban abin da ake ganin yana ta kokarin yi wa Ibn Amir Hajib shi ne, tafiyar magabata da ya yi ta kasa ta share fagen zama sarki.  Haka kuma, an yi hasashen cewa, rashin samun bayanai a cikin al’adar baki game da tafiyar ya nuna cewa tafiyar mansa wani abin kunya ne na sauke nauyin da ya rataya a wuyansa.
