21 of 57 cards from the Islamic Studies deck — real questions with worked answers.

  1. What are the Articles of Faith (Iman) in Islam, and how many are there?

    There are 6 Articles of Faith: belief in (1) Allah, (2) His Angels, (3) His Books, (4) His Messengers/Prophets, (5) the Day of Judgment, and (6) Al-Qadr (Divine Decree, both good and bad).

  2. What is the difference between Iman-e-Mufassal and Iman-e-Mujmal?

    Iman-e-Mujmal is the brief declaration of faith (belief in Allah as He is, with His names and attributes, accepting all His commands). Iman-e-Mufassal is the detailed faith listing all 6 articles individually (Allah, angels, books, messengers, Last Day, and Qadr).

  3. Name the revealed Books mentioned in Islam and the prophets to whom they were given.

    Tawrat (Torah) to Prophet Musa (Moses), Zabur (Psalms) to Prophet Dawud (David), Injil (Gospel) to Prophet Isa (Jesus), and the Quran to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). Also the Suhuf (scrolls) of Ibrahim and Musa.

  4. What are the Five Pillars of Islam?

    (1) Shahadah (declaration of faith), (2) Salah (five daily prayers), (3) Zakat (obligatory charity), (4) Sawm (fasting in Ramadan), and (5) Hajj (pilgrimage to Makkah for those able).

  5. What is the Shahadah (the first pillar of Islam)?

    The declaration of faith: 'La ilaha illa Allah, Muhammadur Rasul Allah' — 'There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah.'

  6. What is the rate of Zakat and on what minimum amount (Nisab) does it become obligatory?

    Zakat is 2.5% (1/40th) of qualifying wealth held for one lunar year. The Nisab is the value of 87.48 grams of gold or 612.36 grams of silver; wealth above this threshold makes Zakat obligatory.

  7. What are the five obligatory daily prayers (Salah) and their rakats (Fard units)?

    Fajr (2 Fard), Zuhr (4 Fard), Asr (4 Fard), Maghrib (3 Fard), and Isha (4 Fard).

  8. What is Sawm and during which month is it obligatory?

    Sawm is fasting from dawn (Fajr) to sunset (Maghrib), abstaining from food, drink, and marital relations. It is obligatory during the month of Ramadan, the 9th month of the Islamic calendar.

  9. What is Hajj, and in which Islamic month is it performed?

    Hajj is the pilgrimage to the Kaaba in Makkah, obligatory once in a lifetime for every able Muslim (physically and financially capable). It is performed in the month of Dhul-Hijjah, the 12th month.

  10. Define Tawheed and name its main categories.

    Tawheed is the absolute oneness/Oneness of Allah. Its categories are: Tawheed al-Rububiyyah (Oneness of Lordship), Tawheed al-Uluhiyyah (Oneness of worship), and Tawheed al-Asma wa al-Sifat (Oneness of Allah's names and attributes).

  11. What is the opposite of Tawheed, and why is it the gravest sin in Islam?

    The opposite is Shirk (associating partners with Allah). It is the gravest sin because it violates the core principle of Allah's absolute Oneness; the Quran states Allah may forgive any sin except Shirk if one dies upon it.

  12. Define Risalat in Islam.

    Risalat is the belief in the prophethood and messengership — that Allah sent prophets and messengers to guide humanity, with Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) being the last and final messenger (Khatam-un-Nabiyyin).

  13. What does Khatam-un-Nabiyyin mean?

    It means 'Seal of the Prophets,' the title of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), affirming that he is the final prophet and no prophet will come after him.

  14. In which year was Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) born, and what is that year commonly called?

    He was born in 570 CE in Makkah, in the year known as 'Aam al-Fil' (the Year of the Elephant), referring to Abraha's failed attack on the Kaaba.

  15. What were the names of Prophet Muhammad's (PBUH) parents, and the relative who raised him?

    His father was Abdullah (died before his birth) and his mother was Aminah (died when he was about 6). He was raised first by his grandfather Abdul Muttalib, then by his uncle Abu Talib.

  16. What titles did the people of Makkah give Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) before his prophethood?

    Al-Sadiq (the Truthful) and Al-Amin (the Trustworthy), reflecting his honesty and reliability before he received revelation.

  17. At what age did Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) receive his first revelation, and where?

    At the age of 40, in the Cave of Hira on the mountain of Jabal al-Noor near Makkah, through the angel Jibril (Gabriel).

  18. What were the first verses of the Quran revealed to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)?

    The first five verses of Surah Al-Alaq (96), beginning with 'Iqra bismi Rabbika alladhi khalaq' — 'Read in the name of your Lord who created.'

  19. Who was the first wife of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and the first person to accept Islam?

    Hazrat Khadijah (RA) was his first wife and the first person (and first woman) to accept Islam.

  20. Who were among the very first people to accept Islam (As-Sabiqun al-Awwalun)?

    Khadijah (first woman), Abu Bakr (first free adult man), Ali ibn Abi Talib (first child/youth), and Zaid ibn Harithah (first freed slave).

  21. What was the 'Year of Sorrow' (Aam al-Huzn) in the Prophet's life in Makkah?

    It was around 619 CE when both his beloved wife Khadijah (RA) and his protective uncle Abu Talib died in the same year, leaving him without key support.
