  3. Assalam-o-alaikum. i wanted to know whether the candidates should be familiar with all the battles fought during the caliphate of Hazrat Umar abd Hazrat Abu bakr...they are soooo many and learning them seems a daunting task.....

    1. I have the same question, can someone answer please? ASAP

      Delete
  4. Hazrat Abubakr's battles are related to his challenges agains false prophets, who refused to pay zakat and the apostasy movement. so they r not difficult to comprehend.Hazrat Umar's battles are important in terms of expansion of muslim empire. so study them relating to expansion.

    1. i wanna know is there any change in the pattern after the workshop held this JANUARY? As per my info it was later changed that question no. 1 part b( distinctiveness ) of paper 1 is changed into another question? a slight change?

      Delete
    2. there will be no change in syllabus until 2013. A lot of queries raised to Cambridge University about the word "distinctive" since it is vague and cannot be comprehended completely. so they may alternate it but even though the requirements will remain the same. so far even there is no such news on the University website.

      Delete
    3. all the battles are important to learn by heart or u shud have a quick review of them all??? batles from h.abubakr and h.umar caliphate! azka from beaconhouse.

  12. shud we learn ALL the battles of Hazrat Umar or just the imp ones?

    ReplyDelete
  13. the is Asad from beacon house Islamabad, i have a question about the the Relationship between the Holy Prophet and the Jews.

    I know what happened to each of the three tribes in the suburb of Madinah but i don't clearly understand what each tribe did to deserve what happened to them (the Banu Qunaiqa, Banu Nazir, and Banu Quraiza). Can you over all outline their relationship and change of relationship throughout the course of events? It would be alot of help. Also in our end of year exam a question came on this and about the relationship between the christians which im guessing just includes Bahira the monk, Najashi the Christian King, and h. Khadija's couosin, but couold mre be added to that?

    ReplyDelete
  14. u asked a question wch required extensive answer. better consult to ur respective teacher or read from farkhanda noor's book. i cant explain it on net.

  18. AOA
    I'm Aayeza Zahid from FFC Grammar School.
    I appeared in Paper 1 of Islamiyat this year on 11th May.
    Q5 of the paper was:
    Explain the teachings of Islam about position of women as Mothers, Daughters and Wives. (10 marks)

    Sir, wasn't this question out of course? It was according to the old syllabus. The new syllabus of 2009 does not include this. Does Cambridge give extra marks to candidates who attempt questions that are out of course?

    ReplyDelete
  19. cambrigde has included this portion in biography of the holy prophet. if u see the syllabus in detail, u will find it a part of syllabus. but still i m greed with u that directly it is not part of syllabus and they shud not ask tricky questions.
    they shud give credit to students to my best knowlwdge

    ReplyDelete
  20. Sir I'm Aayeza Zahid from FFC Grammar School.

    I had another question.
    This year they gave 3 questions from the biography of the holy prophet. Not even one question came from Life In Community. But its a rule of cambridge to give one or two questions from each topic. Never has this happened that the three questions come from the same topic. Q3 was about Holy Prophet's early life. Q4 was events of caves of Hira and caves of Saur and Q5 was the one I told you earlier. The paper was wrongly set then?
    My teacher is going to write an application to British Council for consideration. Would that be effective?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. let me explain you the points for this answer, i hvae consulted my teacher regarding this :)
      the points u have to include are
      -upright and righteous character of the chosen prohpets
      -it is an unannounced experience, it is according to the will of Allah, no one on his own will can become a prophet
      -nature is very strong. even the most righteous people could not withstand it so these people were chosen
      the reference u can include
      1-"He does not send down His angels with inspiration of His command to such of His servants as He pleases"
      2-"when His lord manifested His glory on the mount he made it as dust and Musa fell down in a swoon"
      if you want the written answer i'll provide it :)

Calm down and pray to Allah.try to concentrate on the required information.You need a lot of practice to attempt the past paper questions and then check them through marking scheme.Mostly questions come on different aspects like major events, expansion, services, conflicts,challenges. for detail consult to the past papers.

    Khizar, there is no hard and fast word limit for an answer. but i always suggest my students to write according to the marks of the question. for a 4 marks question, ur answer can be from 80 to 100 words approximately. but examiner looks for quality not for quantity. this also teaches u time management

    ReplyDelete
  44. Walaikum Assalam
    Rimsa, it is recommended to give proper reference. but at minimum u shud write surah name.

  62. The question itself demands examples from the life of the HOly Prophet and his followers.so you need to give these examples. else no reference is required.

  63. Maham.....are you sure there is no mistake other than the writing? if yes tell me how u learn it?
    unless Your handwriting is illegible, examiner does not usually penalize. but overall it affects the impression of your paper which end up up with not a highest grade.

    ReplyDelete
  70. for Quranic Passages read the posting "frequently asked questions". secondly, it depends on the question. in every question you could not give reference. but if you have to 3 to 4 reference are sufficient. thirdly there is no sole best book for studying. you should use farkhanda noor for thorough study, past papers and my blog notes with marking scheme.

  73. the length does not matter a lot in writing an answer but it should be of a sufficient length that contains all the important points and you can also manage to do it in the given time.(for 10 marks approximately 300 - 400)
    hadis is the singular while ahadis is its palural.

      yes, imamat is important. Read the whole and focuse on the first five.
      Secondly don't give headings, always write in continuous writing. You can make paragraphs.

    If you are giving a reference of a famous surah/ayat, you need not give the verse no. of it bit need to be exact in quoting it. other than this try to give the surah name at least

    My 2nd question is that,how many references should i quote in a 10 marks question?
    The third question is,sometimes my answer's length increases in order to complete the points which disturbs my time management so what should i do to make my question in precise way with complete points and will i be giving any extra sheet in exam?
    My last question is,what do you think,which compulsory question will come from History and Importance of Quran this year (May-June 2013)?

  150. Sir, I am in a need to know if the answering pattern to these questions may or may not contain references of Quranic Ayaaz, Ahadith, opinions of different Islamic scholars(from the past)...

    One of the teachers tell the kids in our school that the CIE doesn't expect of your guys to be scholars so just answer casually instead of referring to authentic scriptures. Is it true or what?

    I have recently started to teach in BVS parsi High school Karachi.
