Answer Details
When the Angel Jibril first came to Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and asked him to recite, he replied with the words, "I cannot read" or "I am not a reader." This happened when the Prophet (SAW) was meditating in the cave of Hira before he received the first revelation from Allah. The Angel Jibril asked the Prophet (SAW) to recite the words of Allah, and he responded by saying that he was unable to read or recite. This answer showed the Prophet's (SAW) humility and his acknowledgement of his lack of knowledge and education. It also emphasized the divine nature of the message that he would later receive, which would be a miracle in itself. After this initial encounter, the Angel Jibril continued to come to the Prophet (SAW) with messages from Allah, which were later recorded in the form of the Qur'an. This event marked the beginning of the revelation of the Qur'an and the establishment of Islam as a religion.

Answer Details
The Arabs worshipped idols during the Jahiliyya period because they were ignorant of the true concept of God's existence. The Jahiliyya period refers to the time in Arabia before the advent of Islam, when the Arabs were steeped in ignorance and practiced idolatry. They worshiped statues and idols made of wood, stone, and other materials, and believed that these idols had the power to benefit or harm them. The Arabs at that time had no knowledge of the true concept of God, and their understanding of religion was limited to superstitious practices and beliefs. They believed in many gods and goddesses and associated various powers with them. Despite the presence of some prophets among them, the Arabs did not pay heed to their message and continued in their idolatrous ways. As such, they remained in ignorance until the arrival of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and the revelation of the Qur'an, which taught them the true concept of God and called them to worship Him alone. Therefore, among the given options, the Arabs worshipped idols during the Jahiliyya period because they were ignorant of the true concept of God's existence.

Answer Details
A Hadith whose message is directly from Allah is called Qudsi Hadith. Qudsi Hadiths are considered a category of Hadith in which the message is attributed to Allah, but the wording is conveyed by the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). Unlike the Prophet's own words, which make up the majority of Hadiths, Qudsi Hadiths are considered to be directly inspired by Allah. In Qudsi Hadiths, the Prophet conveys Allah's message in his own words, but he begins the Hadith with phrases such as "Allah says" or "Allah has said" to indicate that the message is not his own, but rather, a direct revelation from Allah. Qudsi Hadiths are considered to be very important in Islam, as they provide direct insight into the words and message of Allah. However, it is essential to ensure that Qudsi Hadiths are authentic and properly transmitted, just like any other Hadith, to ensure that the message being conveyed is truly from Allah.

Answer Details
According to Hadith 34 of an-Nawawi, the weakest of faith is changing an evil with the heart. This hadith teaches that faith is not merely a matter of ritual observance, but also involves moral responsibility. It highlights the importance of actively resisting evil and promoting good in both our actions and our thoughts. The hadith states that the strongest level of faith is to change an evil with our hands, meaning to physically intervene and stop the wrongdoing. The next level of faith is to change an evil with our tongue, which involves speaking out against the wrongdoing. The weakest level of faith is to change an evil with our heart, which means recognizing the evil as wrong but not taking any action to stop it. Therefore, the weakest level of faith according to this hadith is changing an evil with the heart, where a person acknowledges that something is wrong but does not take any action to stop it. This highlights the importance of taking proactive steps to promote good and prevent evil, both in our actions and in our thoughts.

Answer Details
Seeking assistance from fortune tellers or any other forms of divination is forbidden in Islam because it goes against the fundamental belief in the absolute power and knowledge of Allah. By seeking knowledge of the future from fortune tellers, one is ascribing power to someone other than Allah, and this is considered a form of shirk, or polytheism, in Islam. Islam teaches that only Allah has absolute knowledge of the unseen, including knowledge of the future, and seeking such knowledge from any other source is considered an act of disobedience and disbelief. Furthermore, seeking knowledge of the future from fortune tellers can create false hopes and expectations, which may lead to disappointment, confusion, and even despair. In addition to being forbidden, seeking knowledge of the future from fortune tellers or any other forms of divination is considered a major sin in Islam. The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said, "Whoever goes to a fortune-teller and asks him about anything, his prayer will not be accepted for forty days" (Muslim). This indicates that seeking knowledge of the future from fortune tellers can also have negative spiritual consequences. Overall, seeking knowledge of the future from fortune tellers is forbidden in Islam because it goes against the fundamental belief in the absolute power and knowledge of Allah, and it can lead to spiritual and emotional harm.

"By Him who dominates my soul, I swear that you're the Prophet of this nation... you will be abused and you will be persecuted. If I should ever live to see that day, I shall surely help the cause of Allah"
Who made the statement above?
Answer Details
The statement above was made by Waraqah b. Nawfal. Waraqah b. Nawfal was a cousin of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and a scholar of the Christian scriptures. According to Islamic tradition, when Prophet Muhammad first received the revelation, he was deeply distressed and went to his wife, Khadija. She then took him to Waraqah, who recognized the signs of prophethood and confirmed to Muhammad that he was indeed a Prophet of Allah. The statement is Waraqah's response to Prophet Muhammad's description of the events that took place during his first revelation. Waraqah acknowledges the truth of Muhammad's prophethood and swears to support him in the face of the persecution that he knows is sure to come. Waraqah's words demonstrate his faith and dedication to the cause of Allah and his support for Prophet Muhammad in spreading the message of Islam.
Question 32 Report
Who among the following is not a narrator of Hadith?
Answer Details
Khadijah bint Khuwaylid is not a narrator of Hadith. Abu Hurayrah, Aisha bint Abi-Bakr, and Abu Sa'ad b. Malik are all famous companions of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and are known to have narrated many Hadiths. They were close companions of the Prophet and learned directly from him, and later transmitted his sayings and actions to others. However, Khadijah bint Khuwaylid, the first wife of the Prophet, did not narrate any Hadiths. This is not surprising, as she passed away before the Prophet started receiving revelations, and therefore did not have the opportunity to learn directly from him. While Khadijah is revered in Islamic tradition for her steadfast support of the Prophet, her role in Islamic scholarship is not as prominent as that of other companions who had the opportunity to learn directly from him. Therefore, among the given options, Khadijah bint Khuwaylid is the one who is not a narrator of Hadith.
Question 33 Report
The authenticity of a hadith may be faulted if
Answer Details
A hadith is a narration of the sayings or actions of the Prophet Muhammad or his companions. To assess the authenticity of a hadith, scholars use a methodology called hadith criticism, which involves examining the chain of narrators and the content of the hadith to determine its reliability. One reason a hadith may be considered unreliable is if it contradicts a Quranic injunction. The Quran is considered the primary source of Islamic teachings and beliefs, and any hadith that contradicts it is likely to be considered inauthentic. Another reason a hadith may be considered unreliable is if its narrator was not considered trustworthy or reliable. Hadith scholars have a detailed system for evaluating the reliability of narrators, based on their character, memory, and other factors. In addition, a hadith may be considered unreliable if its wording is too close to the text of the Quran or if it is no longer than a verse of the Quran. This is because the Quran is considered the ultimate authority in Islam, and any hadith that appears to mimic its language or content may be viewed with suspicion. In summary, to determine the authenticity of a hadith, scholars examine the chain of narrators and the content of the narration. If a hadith contradicts the Quran, is narrated by an untrustworthy narrator, or appears to mimic the language or content of the Quran, it may be considered unreliable.

Answer Details
Al-Quddus and Al-Mutakabbir are both names or attributes of Allah (SWT) in Islamic theology. Al-Quddus means "The Holy" or "The Pure," and is a name that emphasizes Allah's (SWT) absolute purity and perfection. It conveys the idea that Allah (SWT) is free from any imperfection, deficiency, or impurity, and is completely separate from all that is imperfect or impure. Al-Mutakabbir, on the other hand, means "The Exalted in Might" or "The Supreme." It highlights Allah's (SWT) supreme power and authority, and emphasizes His absolute sovereignty and dominance over all of creation. It conveys the idea that Allah (SWT) is the ultimate source of power and authority, and that all power and authority ultimately derives from Him. Therefore, the word that can be associated with Al-Mutakabbir is "exalted" or "supreme," as it conveys the idea of Allah's (SWT) absolute power and authority over all of creation. While "almighty" could also be a possible association for Al-Mutakabbir, it is more commonly associated with another of Allah's (SWT) names, Al-Aziz, which means "The Almighty." "Compeller" is not commonly associated with Al-Mutakabbir in Islamic theology.

Answer Details
Lawhul-Mahfudh is associated with the preservation of the Quranic text. In Islamic theology, Lawhul-Mahfudh refers to a heavenly tablet that contains the decrees of Allah. It is believed that the Quran was first inscribed on this tablet in its entirety, and then gradually revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) over a period of 23 years. The Quran is considered to be the literal word of Allah, and its preservation is of utmost importance to Muslims. It is believed that the Quran has been preserved exactly as it was revealed, and that it is free from any errors or changes. The preservation of the Quran is ensured by both the Lawhul-Mahfudh and the meticulous efforts of Muslim scholars and memorizers who have passed the Quran down through generations. The Quran itself states, "Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur'an and indeed, We will be its guardian" (Quran 15:9). This verse assures Muslims that Allah Himself is the guardian of the Quran and will ensure its preservation. Therefore, Lawhul-Mahfudh is associated with the preservation of the Quranic text, as it is believed that the Quran was first inscribed on this heavenly tablet before being revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).
