Thanks a bunch for your help! : ) I am referring to Yasmin Malik and FNM's book. Can you mention the correct dates of the battles fought during the reign of Hazrat Umar (R.A) and quote the number of traditions of each of the six books of hadith from Dr. Mustafa's book? I don't have it as of now :\ and I don't have much time left to buy a new book so I hope you don't mind mentioning those here. ^^
Battle of Jasr/ Bridge: 634
Battle of buwaib: 635
Al Qadsiya: 635
Capture of Damascus: 635
these are the pnly dates mentioned. the battles between two of above would be fought between that time meaning the same year. all date are in CE

Can you also post the answer for the compilation of hadith up until the six authentic books. thankss :)
mention the following points
  • initially the Prophet (pbuh) did not make the people write/rather he made them memorise his sayings by making the companions repeat em thrice
  • the hadis were not written during his lifetime for fear of being mixed with the Quran
  • Hazrat Umar, during his calipahate had a plan to compile the traditions, but he halted in fear that people might deviate from the Quran
  • later the caliph Umar bin abd-alaziz, following in his role model's(Hazrat Umar) footsteps, decided to compile and it was the first time that this happendt
  • he sent messengers to all parts, calling scholars and knowledgeable people to collect the traditions
  • the whole Muslim empire was searched
  • later during 3rd century AH, people realised the need for authentic collections ( imam bukhari )
  • write the other people and him, briefly about their methods (if you want matter)
  • also include about musnad/musannaf ( musnad of Ahmad bin Hanbal etc/ Al-muwatta of Malik)

I read in Jehangir's book that there were written records of hadith during prophets life, these included kitab al sadiqa(dictated by Prophet himself), sahif as sadiqa, sahifa as Amr bin Hazm, sahifa Anas bin Malik (Prophet approved it) letters to kings (which included details regarding sharia). Moreover the people from ahl suffah wrote ahadith, these included Zaid bin Sabit, Anas bin Malik etc and it is also mentioned that 65 such documents existed at time of death of Prophet. Furthermore Al Muwatta and Musnad i Ahmed were written down in 2 century.
So tell me now what should i do?

Do you have any source for the point that compilation was not allowed by the Prophet at first?

this is totally irrelavant and we don't have space to write. but still let me tell you, HP never stopped but did not say to anyone to write his sayings or to memorise because he thought that the young Ummah would not be able to recognise hadiths and quran. I have also heard it from my teacher(i think it is written in yasmeen malik's book)

By source i meant from which book. And its written in the Jehangir's book that there are several books which were dictated by Prophet himself, such as Kitab al Sadiqa, Sahifa Amr bin Hazm, and i think you are wrong about the thing that he never asked anyone to memorise his sayings because the people of Ahl Suffa used to memorise and note down his sayings.

i mean u said v have to evaluate, what do u exactly mean by tht....cn u giv an xample?
let me give u few examples:
1- if u qoute a verse, write the meaning of verse after that in ur words and how does it relates to the question.
2-if u are writing abt an event, tell it's reason first, then it's importance after.
3-in the case that u have to write abt challenges to h.Abu Bakr, tell why it was a challenge and why it was necessary to face it or stop it.
4-see my notes of communal life and individual life and see how i commented, analysed and explained each quotation.
5-see specimen answers of 2058_y09_sm_1.pdf and 2058_y09_sm_2.pdf. paper 1 for just understanding not for preparation.
hope u understand. Although the requirement differ in some cases. like in a battle, you have to write naration/story of that also not just key points. for example in case of question about angels or books or something, writing more names and being specific make you get more marks. example:
"there are angels for death...."
"the angels have duties. the angel Gabriel brought revelation to prophets...."
"the angels have duties. Allah gave power to angels for their duties. the angel Gabriel brought revelation to prophets for example H.Lut,... and to came to give tiding of son to H.Maryam....."
other thing is that to "itemize" ,as they say, the answer. like if it is modesty, divide it into modesty towards friends, towards Allah....
this is all what i have observed from all mark schemes, examiner reports and specimen answers about writing good answer.
