[Ibrahim Hasan]

june p1 Q2(b),2003.
Explain how Muslims Reactions to these difficulties set an example for muslims today?
question is about those difficulties which they faced in their early days from pagans.
guide me to its suitable answer?

Basically answer with these points:
-It tells us we should not be demoralized by hardships, and we should always keep faith in Allah, because Allah will help us, either in this world or the next. You can add the following reference "And surely the hereafter will be better for you than the Present"
-Examples such as Bilal, teach us that even in difficult times we should not renounce our faith and keep our faith strong... To get better marks you can relate this with the issue in Palestine.
- You can also mention that it teaches us to remain united, and help each other in times of need, like Hazrat Abu Bakr freed the slaves

Elaborate a little on these and you should get around a half page answer, which includes a reference... If you also include the Palestine point, I am sure you will get 4 marks!

Basically you can mention that the Muslim in Palestine are being tortured, but they should not renounce their faith.

Another point can be that Muslims should be ready to lay down their lives for Islam like Yasir and Summayah!

Well you just need to focus on time and quality... My answers are usually around two till two and a half page long, with around 6-8 words in a line, meaning my answers are not too long... Similarly you dont need to write down too lengthy answers, though it shouldn't be to short either, I would advise around 200-350 words for 10 mark, and around 50-100 words in the 4 mark... though if you want to write more you can, as long as you have the time!

Yes! If possible try to include an example from today in your answers to 4 mark questions, as they are evaluative... though it's not necessary, so dont forcibly include examples where they dont belong

No not necessary without the number your reference would still be appreciated.

 

[Syed Mustafa.1.1]

well actually answer length doesnt really matter..
I have a friend who gave Islamiat paper last year..
he started to answer a 10 mark question.... after writing a whole page, he realized that he didnt understand the question and was writing the wrong answer. so he cut whole that page and answered that question on the 2nd page with really small hand writing so his answer could fully come on that page and he made that brief too. on the 3rd page he answered the 4 mark question.

He go an A* in Islamiat.

Btw Syed how is your preparation of Islamiyat, Pak Studies and Urdu ?

 

[Minahil rizvi]

What if you 've left with no space for a 4 marks answer and write it in the space of the question you left..?
Is it regarded correct?

This is Question 3 part C from Oct/Nov 2009.
You have to write about how it was justified:-
1- Bande Matram
2- Warda Scheme
3- Hindu Extremism
IN general, the congress rule tyranny.
But You must also write about how it was not justified:-
1- The unity between League and Congress became irreconcilable
2- Less chance of a united India
For better understanding do check the marking scheme.
