Answer:
Al Biruni wrote in detail about the Indian religion, philosophy and the caste system. Al- Biruni described his work as "a help to those who want to discuss religious questions with them (the Hindus), and as a repertory of information to those who want to associate with them". The main objective of his writing was to give a glimpse of Indain religion and culture to his readers. He translated several Sanskrit works, including Patanjali's work on grammar, into Arabic.
Ibn Battuta on the other hand did not pay attention to only Hindu religion and philosophy. He meticulously recorded his observations about new cultures, peoples, beliefs, landscape, trees, fruits, cities etc
