The Zakāh which is given at the end of fasting is

voluntary

compulsory
Correct answer

a commendable act.

Answer Details

The Zakāh which is given at the end of fasting is compulsory. Zakāh is one of the five pillars of Islam and is an act of worship that involves giving a portion of one's wealth to those in need. The amount of Zakāh that one has to pay is based on the value of their assets and income, and it is obligatory for Muslims who have reached a certain level of financial stability. The Zakāh given at the end of fasting, known as Zakāt al-Fitr or Fitrah, is a specific amount that is given on behalf of every member of a household at the end of the month of Ramadan. This Zakāh is obligatory for every Muslim who has the means to pay it, and it is intended to provide food and other necessities for those in need, particularly during the festive occasion of Eid al-Fitr. Therefore, the Zakāh which is given at the end of fasting is compulsory.

The principles of Hadīth criticism developed through

matn and riwāyah

isnād and matn Correct answer

musnād and musannaf

Answer Details

The principles of Hadīth criticism developed through "isnād and matn". Isnād refers to the chain of narrators that provide the origin of the Hadīth while matn refers to the content or text of the Hadīth. Therefore, the evaluation of the authenticity and reliability of the Hadīth depended on the examination of the credibility of the narrators in the chain (isnād) as well as the consistency and coherence of the text (matn). This methodology helped to prevent the spread of fabricated and inaccurate Hadīths and ensured the preservation of the authentic teachings of Islam.

‘Allāh swears by the Fig and the Olive in Sūrah

al-Zilzāl

at-Trn

al-Qadr

al-'A’laq. Qur`an chapter 95 vs 1. Allah says: “By the fig and olive”. Correct answer

Answer Details

In Surah Al-Tin, Allah swears by the Fig and the Olive. This is mentioned in chapter 95, verse 1 of the Quran. Swearing by something in Arabic culture is a way of emphasizing the importance and truthfulness of a statement. The Fig and Olive are considered important fruits in Islamic tradition and are associated with various symbolic meanings. The Fig is believed to symbolize knowledge and wisdom while the Olive is associated with peace and blessings. Allah often uses symbolic language in the Quran to convey deeper meanings and lessons. In this case, the mention of the Fig and Olive can be understood as a sign of the importance of knowledge, wisdom, peace, and blessings in the life of a Muslim. It serves as a reminder to seek knowledge, maintain peace and righteousness, and to be grateful for the blessings bestowed upon us.

One of the contributions of Islam to women's welfare is the introduction of inheritance. In Islamic law, women are entitled to inherit from their parents, husbands, and other relatives. This right to inheritance ensures that women have a share in family property and wealth, which provides them with financial security and independence. This is a significant improvement over pre-Islamic Arabia where women were not allowed to inherit and had no financial rights or independence.

Answer Details

The 8th day of Dhul Hijjah is called Yaum at-Tarwiyah. This is the day when pilgrims on Hajj start preparing for the most important day of Hajj, Yaum ‘Arafah, which falls on the 9th day of Dhul Hijjah. On Yaum at-Tarwiyah, pilgrims put on their Ihram (a special clothing worn by pilgrims during Hajj) and head towards Mina, which is a small village outside of Mecca. This day is called Yaum at-Tarwiyah because in the past, people used to drink a lot of water on this day to help them endure the intense heat during the following days of Hajj. "Tarwiyah" comes from the Arabic word "tarwaa" which means "to quench the thirst."

Prophet’s (S.A.W) silent approval of the actions of others.

Taqrir, as a kind of Sunnah, means the silent approval of the actions of others by the Prophet (S.A.W). This means that the Prophet did not explicitly endorse or command a particular action, but he approved of it through his silence. This type of approval is considered a form of guidance for Muslims, as it shows that the Prophet did not object to the action and therefore it is permissible. This is an important aspect of Islamic jurisprudence, as it helps to establish the permissibility of certain actions or practices that may not be explicitly mentioned in the Quran or Hadith.

‘Verily when He intends a thing His command is ‘Be’ and it ‘is’(Q.36:82)From this Qur’anic passage derives the

Muslim belief in

predestination Correct answer

fatalism

providence

premonition.

Answer Details

The Qur'anic passage "Verily when He intends a thing His command is ‘Be’ and it ‘is’" (Q.36:82) highlights the power and will of Allah. Muslims believe that Allah has the power to make anything happen simply by saying "Be" and it comes into existence. This belief is a core part of Islamic theology and is referred to as the doctrine of divine command. This doctrine highlights the belief that Allah is the all-powerful Creator and sustainer of the universe. He has complete control over everything that happens and has the power to make anything happen just by His will. Muslims believe that Allah's power and will are not limited by any external factors and that everything that happens in the world is a result of His divine decree. Therefore, the belief in predestination is derived from this Qur'anic passage. It is the idea that Allah has already determined everything that will happen in the world, including the fate of individuals, and that everything happens according to His divine will. This belief is central to Islamic faith and is mentioned in many other passages of the Quran.
