Question 4 Report

The following are the lessons of Hadith No. 2 of al - Nawawi's collections except

al-Ihsan

al-Imam

al-Islam

al-Sa'ah Correct answer

Answer Details

Hadith No. 2 of al-Nawawi's collections does not include the lesson of al-Sa'ah. The Hadith, narrated by Umar ibn al-Khattab (RA), states that the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said, "Actions are judged by their intentions, so each man will have what he intended. Thus, he whose migration was to Allah and His Messenger, his migration is to Allah and His Messenger; but he whose migration was for some worldly thing he might gain, or for a wife he might marry, his migration is to that for which he migrated." The Hadith teaches the lesson of al-Ihsan, which means doing good or performing actions with excellence and sincerity for the sake of Allah. It also emphasizes the importance of intention in determining the reward or punishment of one's actions. Furthermore, it highlights the concept of al-Hijra (migration) and its significance in Islam, as well as the different motives behind people's actions. However, the Hadith does not mention the lesson of al-Sa'ah, which refers to the Day of Judgment or the Hour of Resurrection. Therefore, we can conclude that the lessons of Hadith No. 2 of al-Nawawi's collections include al-Ihsan, al-Imam, and al-Islam, but not al-Sa'ah.

Answer Details

A female Muslim should cover all her body except her palm and face. The requirement for modest dress for Muslim women is mentioned in the Qur'an and Hadith. While there are differences in interpretation among scholars, the majority agree that women should cover their entire body except for their face and hands. This is based on the principle of modesty and the importance of safeguarding one's physical appearance from the gaze of others. Some Muslim women also choose to cover their face with a veil or niqab as an additional expression of their faith and commitment to modesty.

Tayammum and wudu are vitiated by the following except _______

availability of water Correct answer

loss of sense

passing stool

passing urine

Answer Details

Tayammum and wudu are two methods of purification in Islam. Wudu is a ritual washing of the hands, face, and feet with water, while tayammum is a ritual purification using dust or sand in situations where water is not available or cannot be used. Both of these methods of purification are considered valid until something happens to invalidate them, such as the occurrence of certain bodily functions or the loss of consciousness. Of the options given, "availability of water" is not something that would invalidate tayammum or wudu, as both methods are specifically designed for situations where water is not available. "Passing stool" and "passing urine" are both bodily functions that would invalidate tayammum or wudu, as they are considered impurities that must be washed away with water. "Loss of sense" could also invalidate tayammum or wudu, as it would prevent an individual from being able to perform the required purification rituals correctly. Therefore, the correct answer is "availability of water".

Which of the following factors is responsible for the compilation of al-Quran?

Battle of Badr

Death of the memorizers Correct answer

False prophets

Prophet's death

Answer Details

The compilation of al-Quran was primarily due to the death of the memorizers. During the lifetime of Prophet Muhammad (SAW), the revelations were written down on various materials by different companions. However, the final and authoritative copy of the Quran was compiled during the caliphate of Abu Bakr, shortly after the death of Prophet Muhammad (SAW). Many of the companions who had memorized the Quran had died during battles and wars, and there was a growing concern that the Quran might be lost if it was not compiled in a single volume. Therefore, under the leadership of Abu Bakr, a committee was formed to collect and compile the revelations into a single book, which is now known as the Quran. Thus, the death of the memorizers is the main factor responsible for the compilation of the Quran.

Answer Details

The phrase "Fal'ya budu Rabba hadhal Bayt" is an Arabic phrase that is taken from Surat Al-Fil, which means "let them worship the Lord of this house." In this surah, Allah recounts the story of how He saved the Kaaba from the attack of Abraha and his army of elephants, and thus emphasizes the importance of worshipping the One and Only God. The phrase "Fal'ya budu Rabba hadhal Bayt" serves as a reminder to the believers that the Kaaba is a sacred place of worship that should be dedicated solely to the worship of Allah, and that all acts of worship should be directed towards Him alone.

Answer Details

The Surah in the Quran that specifically encourages the acquisition of knowledge is Surat Al-'Alaq. It is the 96th chapter in the Quran and is also known as "The Clot" or "The Clinging Clot." This Surah emphasizes the importance of seeking knowledge and education, as the first verse revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was "Read! In the name of your Lord who created." Thus, Muslims believe that seeking knowledge is an important part of their faith, and Surat Al-'Alaq serves as a reminder of this principle. The other Surahs listed in the question do not specifically address the issue of seeking knowledge.

Answer Details

Pilgrims combine Maghrib and Isha prayers in Muzdalifah. Muzdalifah is a plain east of Mina and west of Arafat in Saudi Arabia. It is a significant location for pilgrims who are performing Hajj, the annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca. As part of the Hajj rituals, pilgrims are required to spend a night at Muzdalifah after performing the standing (wuquf) at Arafat. In Muzdalifah, they combine Maghrib and Isha prayers by praying them together at the time of Isha, with a single Adhan and two separate Iqamahs. This is based on the practice of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), who combined these two prayers during his pilgrimage. The combination of these two prayers is an exception made for pilgrims during Hajj and is not a regular practice in daily prayers. In summary, pilgrims combine Maghrib and Isha prayers in Muzdalifah during the Hajj pilgrimage. This is based on the practice of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and is an exception made for pilgrims during Hajj.

Compulsory Correct answer

Answer Details

Fulfillment of promises in Islam is considered a compulsory and integral part of one's faith and character. Keeping promises is not only a moral obligation but also a religious duty for Muslims. The Prophet Muhammad (SAW) emphasized the importance of keeping one's word and fulfilling promises in various sayings and actions. In Islam, breaking a promise is considered a sin and a sign of dishonesty and untrustworthiness. It damages one's credibility and reputation, and it may cause harm to others. Therefore, Muslims are encouraged to be truthful and trustworthy and to fulfill their promises to the best of their ability. On the other hand, making promises that cannot be fulfilled or promising something with the intention of not fulfilling it is prohibited in Islam. It is considered a form of deception and dishonesty, and it may lead to negative consequences in this life and the Hereafter. In conclusion, fulfilling promises is not only a moral obligation but also a religious duty in Islam. It is compulsory for Muslims to keep their word and fulfill their promises to the best of their ability, and breaking promises is prohibited and considered a sin in Islam.
