asking Abu Baker as Sidiq to be kind to Mistah, Abu Baker as Sidiq asked for
forgiveness and continued to support Misthah.

Chapter 4 : The Five Purposes of Legislation

1. What is the purpose of creation of mankind ?
Allah(SWT) created mankind to worship Him alone, to examine and test those
who are obedient and those who are disobedient and then reward the obedient
ones and punish the disobedient ones. Allah has honored man and favored him
far above many of those whom He has created, but many people insist on
disbelief, so they are ignorant of or deny the true wisdom behind their creation,
and all they care about is enjoying the pleasures of this world.
2. What is the purpose(Maqasid) of Sharia - ‫مقاصد الشريعة‬. ? Explain.

The purpose of the Islamic Law (Sharia) is for humans to achieve happiness in this
world and the hereafter, by following the law of adopting the good and
neglecting the bad. The sharia is a complete way of life; no aspect of human life
is outside of its domain. Indeed it is a set of God-made laws in every aspect of
life: personal and familial, religious and social, moral and political, economic and
business, etc.
Islam believes that an efficient religion should be based on Sharia laws, because
man-made laws are incomplete. Islam believes that human being is a very
sophisticated creature; and since he has not made his own body, nor did he
create the world in which he lives, he, therefore, is not the best candidate for
making laws about himself.
3. List the benefits of studying the purposes of Sharia.

Benefits of studying the purposes of Sharia include:
1- Fortifying Muslims against destructive ideas.
2- The purposes of Sharia are the very soul of actions.
3- It constitutes an important frame of reference in solving conflict and reducing
jurisprudent disagreement.
4- It constitutes an important frame of reference to independent reasoning in
novel matters and events.
4. What are the necessities as per Islam ?

existence depends upon in this world and the Hereafter. There are 5 necessities
also called the fundamentals, purposes and interests. They are
(i)Preserving Religion
(ii)Preserving Life
(iii)preserving the mind
(iv)Preserving lineage
(v)Preserving wealth
5. Infer the five necessities as described in the Ayah:
Say, "Come, I will recite what your Lord has prohibited to you. [He commands]
that you not associate anything with Him, and to parents, good treatment, and
do not kill your children out of poverty; We will provide for you and them. And
do not approach immoralities - what is apparent of them and what is
concealed. And do not kill the soul which Allah has forbidden [to be killed]
except by [legal] right. This has He instructed you that you may use reason."
And do not approach the orphan's property except in a way that is best until he
reaches maturity. And give full measure and weight in justice. We do not
charge any soul except [with that within] its capacity. And when you testify, be
just, even if [it concerns] a near relative. And the covenant of Allah fulfill. This
has He instructed you that you may remember.
Allah is the provider of sustenance, one is commanded not to
kill their own children out of fear of not providing for them
And do not approach immoralities- what is apparent of them and

what is concealed
Preserve the rights of the people in trade. Dealing in fraudulent

measures incurs Allah’s wrath and reduction in wealth.

Muslim scholars have unanimously agreed that there are two types of "riba" usury:
1. Usury of debts.

at the commencement of the loan.

defaults on the payment. It is not stipulated at the commencement of the
loan.

Sales Riba relates to sales contracts and commercial exchanges. It is divided into

same type, but in unequal amounts, whether in terms of quality or in terms of
delivery time.
(ii)Riba An Nasee’a(Postponement) : It unduly benefits one the counterparties in
the form of a surplus or extra amount due to delay of delivery of his side of the
transaction. An example of loan-based riba an-nasee’a would be a loan with
$1,000 principal on which $1,200 is to be paid next year. An example of sale-
based riba an-nasee’a is a sale of 100 kg of dates to be paid back with 120 kg six
month later.

business and the profit or loss is shared according to the ratio determined in the
contract.
3. Mubadarh Contract(Profit Sharing): It is a form of partnership in which one
partner provides the capital and the other manages the investment using its
expertise. Profits are distributed according to a predetermined ratio.

11. What are Riba commodities?
The six substances (items) that are sold by weight and measure, literally: gold,
silver, dates, wheat, salt and barley. Exchanging these substances in kind must be
in equal measure and with immediate transfer of possession (qabdh) in order to
avoid exchanging unequal amounts (measures and weights). If carried out in
conformity to these conditions, then the exchange is riba-free
(i.e., halal/permissible/shari’a compliant).

13. Define "najsh" according to Sharia.

artificially inflate the prices against one another.”
14. Explain the ahadeeth : “No man should sell over his brother.”
One should not urge somebody to return the goods to the seller so as to sell him
his own goods. One should not cancel a bargain already agreed upon (Selling to a

between people.
15. Define gambling. What is the wisdom of prohibiting gambling?

Gambling means to give or take money or goods depending on something that is
not known how it will end. Any game or bet that has this property and that is
played in return for money or goods is called gambling. The word "maysir"
mentioned in the Quran is derived from the word "yusr", which means ease,
which indicates that money or goods are obtained or lost easily in gambling.
Gambling is a way of obtaining undeserved money which makes man forget his
Creator, prevents him from performing prayers, leads him to laziness, eliminates
his strength to work and causes grudge and enmity among people. All kinds of
gambling, which causes irreparable wounds in individual and social life, are haram
in the religion of Islam.

Chapter 1 : Marriage is the path to Chastity
Surat un Nur (32 – 34)
• Infer the measures for combatting adultery.

Problem Solving

1.What are the hazards associated with failure to facilitate marriage ?
(i) Spread of adultery and fornication.
(ii) Children born out of wedlock.
(iii)Spread of diseases.
2.Arabic Vocabulary
And marry the unmarried among you and the righteous among your male slaves and
female slaves. If they should be poor, Allah will enrich them from His bounty, and Allah
is all-Encompassing and Knowing.
But let them who find not [the means for] marriage abstain [from sexual relations]
until Allah enriches them from His bounty. And those who seek a contract [for
eventual emancipation] from among whom your right hands possess - then make a
contract with them if you know there is within them goodness and give them from the
wealth of Allah which He has given you. And do not compel your slave girls to
prostitution, if they desire chastity, to seek [thereby] the temporary interests of
worldly life. And if someone should compel them, then indeed, Allah is [to them], after
their compulsion, Forgiving and Merciful.

3. What are the measures that are to be taken to prevent fornication?

Islam promotes the prevention of the crime before it occurs. Measures stipulated by
Islam are:
(i) Urging the youth to marry.
(ii)Preserving chastity: If one is unable to get married, then he should try to fast,
hoping Allah, will make his path to marriage easy.
(iii) Prohibiting prostitution and all ways leading to it.
4. Prostitution is prohibited by human and international laws. Explain.

Prostitution is trading in sex managed by a group, headed by a criminal, who
facilitates the process and encourages others to engage in it, for materialistic
interests and to gain power and authority. It causes other crimes like abduction,
coercion, murder and drug abuse, in addition to the humiliation of human dignity.
5. Explain the concept of “Mukataba” contract.

Mukataba is a contract which gave the slaves the right to set themselves free,
according to an agreement between the two parties, the slave and the slave holder.
Muslims were encouraged to free slaves, or aid through their zakkaat in fulfilling the
Mukataba contract.
6. What are some of the subjects, incorporated in the Holy Quran, from the following
Holy verse :
And We have certainly sent down to you distinct verses and examples from those who
passed on before you and an admonition for those who fear Allah .
Some of the subjects which the ayah warns are about:

(1) State the laws concerning zina(fornication), qazf(false accusation of adultery)
and li’an(oath of condemnation).
(2) Forbid the believers to marry impure men or women.
(3) Prohibit the slandering of chaste people and propagating indecencies in
society.
(4) Lay stress on men and women to restrain their gaze and guard their private
parts.
(5) Prescribe the limits of Hijab for women.
(6) Disapprove of delaying marriage.
(7) Lay down the rule for slaves to earn their freedom through written
agreements.
(8) Ban prostitution to purify society.
After all these commands and instructions, a warning is being given that now if the
people violated these instructions it would only mean that they wanted to meet with
the same doom as the lot of the wretched communities before them, whose stories
have been related in the Quran itself.

Chapter 3 : Responsibility in Islam

1. How has Allah(SWT) honored man ?
Allah(SWT) has honored men and raised his status among all His creations.
Allah(SWT) says in Surat ul Isra verse 70,
“We have honored the sons of Adam; provided them with transport on
land and sea; given them for sustenance things good and pure; and
conferred on them special favors, above a great part of Our creation.”
This honor bears great obligation, of submitting to the will of Allah(SWT),
observing forbidden things and the limits set by Allah(SWT).
2. Define the concept of responsibility in Islam.

Responsibility is the way man is committed to the consequences of his willful
action in religion and worldly affairs. Man will be held responsible for everything
over which he possesses the will and freedom of action.
The relationship between responsibility and choice:

The mercy of Allah, Glorified and Sublime be He, linked responsibility to man’s
choice and will; man is not responsible for something towards which he has no
choice. Color, sex, and other things are matters that man has no power over.
Also, he will not be held accountable in case of necessity, or if he fears dying of
hunger and he does not find except a dead animal and eats of it to save himself
from perishing; responsibility is annulled in such cases.
3. List the types of responsibility.

Type 1: individual responsibility:
Type 2: collective responsibility:
4. What do you understand by the term “Individual Responsibility” ?
This means every individual is responsible for himself and everything that issues
from him in words or deeds.
Division of individual responsibility:
Allah has specified these three sectors :
1- Religious responsibility: everyone will be held accountable before Allah, on
the Day of Judgment.
2- Moral responsibility: A Muslim has to subject himself to a system of self-
accountability.
3- Responsibility before the government and public opinion: A Muslim is
accountable before his community, which watches over his actions and
judges him according to these actions, materially before the Judiciary and
morally before the public opinion.
5. What do you understand by the term “Collective Responsibility”?

Islam gives public interest priority over private interest because the former
subsumes individual interest. Islam views the individual in society as a part of a
whole.
Sufficiency Duties (Fard al Kifayah):
Sufficiency duties relate to the Muslim society and its duties towards its
members and their interests. They are not restricted to acts of devotion such as
the funeral prayer or founding jurisprudence academies and institutions of
collective ijtihad .
1- Learning universal sciences such as Medicine, Engineering and other
beneficiary sciences, involving in scientific researches, promoting innovation,
quality in industry, commerce and agriculture which promotes a diversified
economy.
2- Finding scientific centers for the creative and talented in different fields.
3- Achieving food and economic security in Muslim societies.
4- Finding purposive media establishments.
5- Internal and external security.
6- Creating social institutions capable of ensuring the necessities of living for
the poor and destitute.
6. What are the stages of individual responsibility?

Stages of individual responsibility:
1- Pre-action: one has to make decisions as regards what one intends to do.
This necessitates good planning, studying options and estimating consequences
before the action commences.
2- Post action: one is responsible for one’s choice, the way of executing this
choice and one should bear the effects and consequences of one’s choice.
7. What are the spheres of individual responsibility ?
Spheres of individual responsibility:
1- Man’s responsibility towards himself.
2- Man’s responsibility towards his family and relatives.
3- Man’s occupational responsibility.
4- Man’s responsibility towards his homeland and nation.
8. What are the limits of individual responsibility ?

The limit of individual responsibility: the responsibility of man is not limited to
his action alone; but extends beyond these as he is responsible for the effects of
his actions.
A man will be held accountable for the actions of others in the following three
cases:
1- if the action is taken under his order or his inspiration.
2- if others follow the example of what he has done.
3- if he keeps silent as regards an action he is authorized to change and is capable
of changing.
9. “ Whoever instigates another to commit a mistake shares the responsibility for

committing the mistake.” Justify.
Man is responsible not only for his actions, but also the ones he inspires others to
do. He cannot distance himself from the mistake, by saying that he had only
suggested, where as the action was carried out by the other.
10. Analyze and determine the responsibility in the following cases :
Choice Responsible
Compulsion Not Responsible
Choice Responsible
Compulsion
Choice Responsible
11. Deduce the type of responsibility

Moral responsibility. The Prophet (SAW) was taking an account of himself,
whether he had committed a sin by eating the dates, as Zakah is haram for the
prophets of Allah(SWT).
12. Suicide is forbidden in Islam. Explain.

The human body and soul is an Amanah, entrusted to man, by Allah(SWT). It is
his responsibility to take care of them, with all the means provided to him.
Trials and tribulations are a part of this duniya and getting past them is a part of
Imaan. Suicide is only attempted by those who do not trust Allah(SWT)’s plans
and despair of His infinite Mercy. Man has no right to take his own life, life
which was given to him by Allah(SWT).
13. Identify the role and responsibilities of the family members.

Member Role
Parents *Rearing children in a manner consistent with obeying
Allah.
*Provide basic necessities such as food, clothing,
Shelter, education and medical support.
*Teaching them about Islam, prayer, fasting,hajj.
*Teaching them moral responsibilities, respecting the
Elders, supporting the community, etc
Husband * Good companionship
*Provide protection, maintenance and overall welfare
Of his wife and children.
*Treat his wife with honour, kindness and patience.
Wife * Good companionship
*Should be faithful, trustworthy and honest.
*Take good care of the children and bring them up in
Accordance with Islam.
*Managing the husband’s assets and properties
Children *Love and respect their parents, elders,neighbours.
*Learn the Islamic way of life.
*Help the parents in household work.
*Take care of the parents when they become old.
14. Imagine you are the head of the department, in an organization. List the duties
and responsibilities towards
(i) the work environment
(ii)the employees in the division.
My responsibility towards
(i) the work environment : Perform the tasks to the best of my abilities, by
perfecting it and finding better myself everyday.
(ii) the employees in the division : Being empathetic, co operative,
approachable, supportive and encourage them to perform their best.
15. Infer the relationship between individual and collective responsibility from the
ahadeeth
Societies are made up of different individuals who vary in race, ethnicity and
religion. The approach to Islam in this question is unique. In the process, it
creates the strongest bond possible. One of the necessary aspects of this
brotherhood is love. That is, it is an obligation upon all Muslims to love their
brother Muslims. In fact, they should love them in a manner similar to the way
they care for themselves. As the Prophet, may the mercy and blessings of God
be upon him, said:
“None of you truly believes until he loves for his brother what he loves for
himself.”
A second necessary aspect of this brotherhood is mutual support, aid and
assistance. When his brother is being oppressed or wronged, he comes to his
aid and assistance with his wealth and soul, if possible. A third essential aspect
of this Islamic brotherhood is mercy and tenderness between the believers. A
final necessary component of our brotherhood is common acts of
courtesy. True brotherhood has to be put into practice; it cannot simply be a
statement of the tongue.
16. What are the four things a person will be asked about on the Day of
Judgement?
Allah’s Messenger(PBUH) said: “No one will be allowed to move from his
position on the Day of Judgement until he is asked how he spent his life; how
he used his knowledge; how he earned and spent his money; and in what
pursuits he used his health.”

1.Islam encourages Creativity. Support your answer with an ayah and ahadeeth.
The innovative abilities of humans are a gift from Allah(SWT), to examine how man
uses them, as Allah says in the verse:
[He] who created death and life to test you [as to] which of you is best in deed - and
He is the Exalted in Might, the Forgiving . Surat ul Mulk Verse2.
The Messenger(PBUH) has said “Be keen with what is beneficial to you and seek help
from Allah(SWT), do not be reckless.”
Islam encourages man to work hard, innovate and search for new methods, develop
one’s ability, to achieve progress and prosperity to the highest level.
2. What are the most important skills required for innovation ?

The most important skills required for innovation are
• Eloquence
• Originality
• Flexibility
• Focus
• Giving details
• Sensitivity to the problem
3. Reflect and Explain :
“One of the Asma ul Husna of Allah(SWT) is Al Badi’u; The Originator”
The Originator of the heavens and the earth. Surat ul Baqarah verse 117.
Everything that is in the heavens and everything that is on the earth was created by
Allah(SWT), and He created it in the best possible way. He is the Originator of all of
the creation, in all its perfect order, structure and harmony. Without Him, life as we
know it would simply not exist. When we look at the stars, or at a seed or at our
own fingerprints, we should contemplate where these beautifully designed things
originated from. It is He who created the heavens and the earth in all their infinite
beauty and He Knows all that occurs within them.
4. Relate the story of Dhul Qarnayn with reference to Ayahs 93 – 97 of Surat ul Kahf.
Infer the creative and innovative thinking exhibited by him.
ْ
‘Dhul Qarnain‘, or “the possessor of (‫ )ذِي‬the two horns (ِ‫”)القَ ْرنَي ِْن‬. Dhul-Qarnayn was a
man endowed by Allah with many talents and abilities, including military prowess,
the ability to rule kingdoms, and extensive practical knowledge on many aspects of
life. He was also a pious and steadfast Muslim who constantly contemplated over
the signs of Allah and lived his days travelling from one destination to the next in
order to establish justice in the land and alleviate the suffering of the people.
He came across a people living in a valley between two mountains. They were
tormented by the Ya’juj and Ma’juj. The people asked him to build a barrier
between them, and were willing to pay for it. Dhul Qarnayn refused the payment
and requested to help him with manpower. Dhul Qarnain got to work, and built the
barrier.
We infer the following qualities exhibited by Dhul Qarnayn

(i) The markings of a true “professional”!
Dhul Qarnayn built for the people a barrier that was bigger, better, firmer and more
long-lasting in purpose than what they had requested. Someone who does his job
better than expected.
(ii)A business deal done solely for the sake of Allah.
When he refused their offer of payment, he gave the most beautiful reason for it.
Allah had already granted him vast provisions upon earth , and instead of becoming
arrogant and miserly, he remained humble, proclaiming Allah’s bounties upon him
publicly and in an unapologetic manner.
(iii) Innovative and creative in the use of resources.
Using iron, fire, bellows, and molten copper, he utilized the knowledge, manpower
and other resources at his disposal to build an insurmountable and impenetrable
barrier that trapped the Yajuj and Majuj in the valley between the mountains.
Metallurgy was a very new concept during that period.
(iv) Public Acknowledgment of Allah’s Favors and Belief in the Hereafter
Instead of taking full credit for the job, he credited its success solely to Allah, since
every believer knows that whatever he has been blessed with, from his talents,
abilities, resources and knowledge, to the ideas and aid of other people that help
bring about the positive culmination of the projects he undertakes, are all solely
from Allah. Just as Allah can give someone all these blessings, so too, can He take
them away in the blink of an eye!
5. Give examples of incidents related in the Quran, where creative thinking was used.
(i) Surat ul Kahf : The incident of Musa(AS) with Qidr(AS) to protect the ship, from
the pirates, by making it appear damaged.
(ii) Yusuf(AS)’s innovative method of storing grains to be used during the famine.
6. What are some of the benefits of innovation and creativity?

(i) Man’s appreciation of creativity helps him to get closer to Allah(SWT),
through acts of worship and appreciation of the creativity in Allah’s Creations.
(ii) Benefit the society by finding new cures, method of farming, exploration of
Science.
(iii) Engagement of man in the overall development and progress of the society.
7.What are the factors that assist innovation?

(i) Family is an incubator for innovation and creativity.
(ii)Studying and searching for knowledge.
(iii)Sincerity and perfection
8. What are the rules to be followed while pursuing innovation and creativity ?
(i) One should not permit things that are haram and forbid what is halal.
(ii)There should be only creativity and no bid’ah(religious innovation).
(iii) Creativity and innovation should be within the ethics of Islam and should not be
Fraudulent or illegal.
9. “The source of all creativity is Allah(SWT)”. Infer this statement by observing the
environment around you.
The innovation of Allah(SWT) is clear in
(i) The perfection of creation, system of lives of the creatures, their existence, as
well as their beauty and perfection, in their harmony in spite of their diversity
and multiplicity.
(ii) Allah has adorned the skies with stars.
(iii) Perfection between man, beast, plants and inanimate things.
10.Compare divine and human creativity.
Divine creativity Human creativity

11. Identify the guiding lines of the Prophet(PBUH) as regards innovative education in
regards to the following ahadeeth :
(i) “Allah loves anyone who has done a deed to perfect it.”
To strive for perfection, without sacrificing the quality of the work.
(ii) Release prisoners of war, provided each prisoner teaches 10 children to read and
write.
Prophet(PBUH) understood the importance of education over wealth. He traded
the freedom of the prisoners in exchange of education over money.
(iii) “It is an honest man’s sale or a man’s work with his hands.”
The best wages are earned by fair business and honest work
12. Name some Islamic scholars and their innovation.

Chapter 3: Fiqh of Priorities
1.Define Fiqh of Priorities.

Fiqh of Priorities means giving some actions precedence over others based on
considerable evidence. The evidence on which the priority is based may be a
Qur’anic and Sharia text or mental deduction based on Qiyas(Deductive analogy)
and understanding of the purposes and goals of Sharia.
2. State some of the benefits of studying Fiqh of Priorities.

The study of Fiqh of Priorities has great benefits to individuals and societies alike.
Some of them are:
• Preserving the Sharia purposes by observing the necessities and giving it
precedence over other matters.
• Saving time and effort and realize competence in achievement as it helps us
to prioritize.
• Prioritizing deeds on the basis of importance. All the deeds are not same in
rank as they vary in the view of Sharia .
• Realizing progress and prosperity as the efforts of every individual can be
unified to realize the best results.
3.Classify the deeds.

There are two main categories in Islam; Halal (permissible) and haram (forbidden).
• Halal is divided into 4 sub-divisions based on the way in which they were made
allowable.
1. Faraid = obligatory: It is something that must be done, if we do it
we’re rewarded for it if we don’t (on purpose) we’re punished for it, if we
don’t repent.
2. Mustahabb = recommended: These are acts which are encouraged by the
Prophet (pbuh). If we do them we’re rewarded, if we don’t we’re not
punished no matter what. Acts classified as Mustahabb are those which a)
The Prophet (pbuh) used to do regularly, b) those he recommended.
3. Mubah = allowed: These are some acts that are allowed and they don’t
affect our faith or relationship with God.
4. Makrooh = disliked: If we don’t do these acts we will be rewarded, but if
we do them there is no punishment. But it is better to avoid them
because they may be harmful for us and they can lead to haram actions.
• Haram = forbidden: An act is haram if Allah or His Messenger(pbuh) ordered us
not to do it, without making any exceptions. If we avoid these acts we are
rewarded if we don’t we are punished.
4. Differentiate Sunan Mustahab and Nawafil acts.

The best deeds are religious duties imposed by Allah(SWT) which are Faraid or
compulsory. These are followed by commendable acts which are Sunan Mustahab,
i.e following the Sunnah of the Prophet(pbuh). Nawafil are voluntary acts which
bring us closer to Allah. The order of priority is Faraid, followed by Sunan Mustahab
followed by Nawafil acts.
5. Someone spends money on going to voluntary Hajj and Umrah but does not pay
Zakah. Do you agree to this. Support your answer.
According to the Fiqh of Priorities, the Faraid have the highest precedence.
Performing voluntary Hajj and Umrah are considered to be Nawafil, where as paying
Zakah is Fara’id. Hence by not paying Zakah he is not doing what has been
commanded by Allah(SWT). He is falling short of performing his religious duty, for
which he will be punished.
Other examples of this mistake are

(i) performing voluntary prayers through out the night but missing on the Fajr
prayer.
(ii) Keeping voluntary fasts and not performing his duties towards his family or
work.
6.Give examples of how the companions of the Prophet(pbuh) took care in

establishing the Fiqh of Priorities.
• During the year of the famine(Aam ar Ramada), the caravan of Uthman ibn
Affan(RA), arrived from Syria with one thousand camels carrying dates, oil and
raisin. There was a stiff competition in the market to buy his goods, each one
willing to pay a higher price. But Uthman Ibn Affan(RA) gave it to the Muslims. If
it were an ordinary merchant, he would have found a rare opportunity to gain
huge amounts of money. He gave public interest priority over personal interest.
• Abu Bakr(RA) donated all his wealth to prepare and equip the army for the
Battle of Tabuk. He also gave priority to public interest over personal interest.
7. Deduce the Fiqh of Priorities from the following texts:
(i)
Here consideration of illness or hardship is given priority over lengthening the

Salah, when prayed in congregation, as there may be some who are
experiencing difficulties. Whereas when one prays alone, he should make it as
long as he possibly can.
(ii)
Islam is a religion of ease. Allah(SWT) desires ease for man as he is

Created weak. If one is unable to fast due to health reasons, he should make it
up when he is able to do so. If his health does not allow him to do so, he should
feed the poor.
(iii)
The Messenger(pbuh) was the first one to order an organized statistics of those
who had believed in him after his migration to Madinah. Planning is the
foundation of any successful action. Every serious work should have prerequisite
studies, planning statistics and feasibility studies before implementation.
(iv)
This Hadeeth indicates to us, the importance of prioritizing the manner in which
we spend money. It is a necessity, to take care of ourself, before we spend
money for others. Preference should always be given to family, relatives, then to
any one in need.
(v)
“As for the ship, it belonged to poor people, working on the river, and I wished
to mar it, for there was a king behind them who is taking every ship by force.”
Surat ul Kahf – Verse 79.
During the journey of Musa(AS) with Qidr(AS), Qidr(AS) made some dents to
the ship, they were travelling in, to protect it from being taken over by a
King, forcefully. Hence we find that, it is possible to commit minor sins to realize
a major interest.
8. When there is a conflict of interests, how do we prioritize them?
When there is a conflict of interest then

(i) The most important event is given priority such as giving public interest
priority over personal interest.
(ii) When faced with choosing between 2 corrupt practices, we choose ‘The
lesser of the two evils’.
(iii) When interests conflict with corrupt acts, we take into consideration the
outcomes because it is possible to commit minor sins to realize a major
interest, or suspend an interest to avoid a corrupt act. For example, the
decision of the doctors to amputate a limb infected with gangrene to save
the rest of the body.
9. Make a judgement, on each of the following matters and give a reason for it.
(i) Someone spends his money in voluntary charity(sadaqah) and does not repay
his debts.
This is incorrect as the Fara’id and Nawafil acts are in conflict. Repaying one’s
debt is Fara’id, whereas spending money in voluntary charity(sadaqah) is
Nawafil. Fara’id takes precedence over Nawafil acts.
(ii) Someone does not use perfumes containing alcohol, but accepts presents
given to him because of his job.
Accepting presents given to him because of his position is haram and is a
bigger evil.
(iii) A young man possesses enough money to do one of two things, marriage or
performing Hajj. He is puzzled, as to which has to be given priority.
He should marry first, as marriage completes half of deen. Marriage takes
precedence over performing Hajj, Hajj is to be performed after fulfilling all his
obligations and if he has enough money for the journey.

Chapter 2 : The Divine Laws
Explain the concept and parts of the Divine Laws(as Sunan ar Rabaniyah)
Identify the conditional laws(sunan) in the Holy Quran and the Prophet’s
Sunnah.
Apply the laws in my daily life and benefit fromit.
Competency : Problem Solving, Critical Thinking

1. Why is a believer subjected to trials and tribulations?
A believer understands that this Duniya is a testing ground, the higher the imaan,
the more difficult the test. Trials and tribulation are means of expiation of sins
and achievement of Rewards. The believers put their trust(Tawakkul) in Allah
(SWT) and believe that everything that occurs in the universe is according to the
will of Allah(SWT). Hence they develop a strong bond with Allah(SWT),through
which their status in Jannah is elevated.
2. Explain the concept of Divine Laws.

Divine Laws(as Sunan ar Rabaniyah) are constant and progressive laws, that
govern the system of creatures through time and place, according to the will of
Allah(SWT). It is divided into 2 parts
(i) Inevitable Laws : Man or any other creation has no choice regarding these
laws, for example death.
(ii)Conditional Laws : They are linked to the deeds and will of man. They occur in
the form of 2 interconnected events; one is a condition whereas the other is
the result.
3. Explain the ayah

If a man wants to change a state of hardship to one of ease, he must get rid of
negligence and laziness, distance himself from sins and adhere to hardwork,
obedience and diligence. This is a conditional law, if man wants the result,
then he must endeavor to satisfy the condition.
4. What is the importance of understanding the divine laws ?

Man is required to understand the laws of Allah glory be to Him, in order to
understand the world he lives in .
(i) It will assist him in organizing his life, realizing his interest and happiness
in this world and the Hereafter.
(ii) The constancy and continuity of phenomena such as rainfall, movement
of stars, alteration of night and day, different stages of a human being in
the mother’s womb, etc enabled scientists to discover and understand
many of them and consequently use them to serve mankind.
(iii) They are a means of knowing the greatness of Allah(SWT).
(iv) The discovery of these laws lead to cooperation and understanding
between people, as it requires hard work and diligence.
(v) It gives us reassurance about divine justice, as these laws apply to all
people without discrimination.
5. List the characteristics of divine law.

The laws of Allah(SWT) in the universe have 3 characteristics:
(i) Constancy : They do not change with change in place and time.
(ii) Progression : These laws occur recurrently and continuously.
(iii) Generality : The rules of these laws applies to creatures with out
exception.
6. Rain continues to fall, while sins exist and obscene acts are widespread.
Explain.
Allah(SWT), is the most merciful and most forgiving. He provides for all
humans irrespective of their acceptance of Islam. Allah(SWT), in his infinite
mercy and love for His creations, continues to make the cloud bear rain.
7. Deduce the condition and reward in the conditional laws mentioned in the
following ahadeeths.
1. “He who is deprived of kindness is deprived of goodness”

Condition : Being unkind and cruel to the creations.
Result: Allah will deprive them of His mercy and kindness.
2.” Good works protect from evil fates.”
Condition: Acts of righteousness, by spending from one’s possessions and
abilities for the sake of Allah.
Result: Prevention of any unforeseeable misfortune or suffering that might

occur in one’s life.
3.” A false oath uproots a house.”
Condition : Giving a false oath, which is one of the major sins in Islam.
Result: Uprooting and destroying Allah’s blessings.
4.“If someone with whose piety and character you are satisfied comes to you
asking to be married to one of your daughters, marry her to him. If you do not
do so, there will be trials in the earth and a great deal of evil.”
Condition: Rejecting the good pious suitor
Result: Spreading trials and evil in the earth
5. “Whosoever desires to have expansion in his sustenance and a prolonged
life, should treat his relatives with kindness”
Condition: Kindness to relatives
Result: Expansion in sustenance and life
6.“Anything you stop doing for the sake of Allah, Allah shall give you something
better than it in compensation”
Condition: Not doing things for Allahs’ sake.
Result: Allah compensates with something better.
Spread of Phenomena Result

1. Spread of adultery in society Spread of plague and
diseases
2. People cheating in measuring and Poverty, Hardship,
weighing, and being unfair to one another Oppression
in trading
3. Not paying the Zakah Rain ceases to fall on their
lands
8. Advise your fellow student as regards the following case

He neglects his studies arguing that he puts his trust in Allah, glory be to
Him.
on the basis of your understanding of the conditional law in the hadith:
A man said to the Prophet, peace be upon him, I leave my camel and
trust in Allah? The Prophet said, “Tie your camel then put your trust in
Allah”.
Trusting and relying on Allah is a condition for faith but after using all the
available means of success. Hence I would advice my friend to put in hard work
and then put his trust in Allah to score well.
9. Is it necessary that the results of the conditional laws are to be evident

immediately. Justify.
Allah in His infinite Mercy and Wisdom rewards or punishes according to His
will, as He is the Most Just.
If there is a delay in the rewards, it is only to be rewarded in the Hereafter,
which will be more than what we could imagine.
If there is a delay in the punishment, it is because Allah, being the Most
Merciful and Forgiving, is repeatedly forgiving them and waiting for them to
regain their sense and ask for forgiveness.
10. Explain the Holy verse:
“Let there be no compulsion in religion” Surah Baqarah 256.

This worldly life is available to both the believers and the non believers.
Allah out of mercy provides for both of them, if not people will believe out
of sheer greed for provision and not out of conviction and certainty. No one
should be forced to accept Islam.
11.Explain: The significance of the interconnection between conditional laws

and the action and will of man.
It signifies that all human beings have the free will in life to choose whether
good or bad, and the reward or punishment will be accordingly rewarded
upon their choices.
12. Do you agree or disagree to the claim that the universe existed accidentally.
I disagree to the claim that the universe came in to existence accidentally. It
is a false claim because this universe was created innovatively and
systematically. Chance and luck couldn’t do that. But it causes chaos and
disorder.
13. Explain: Aspects of harmony between the law of evaporation and the Plant
Kingdom
It is an integrated relation. Evaporation causes rainfall, and then rain revives
plants and soil.
14. Identify some of the results due to the spread of lewdness.
(i)Spreading corruption and vices through Muslim community.
(ii)Depriving from Allahs’ bounties and blessings.

Problem Solving
Value : Empathy, respect

1.Define Globaliztion.
Globalization as an idea is as ancient as civilizations and human societies; it
manifests itself in commercial exchanges, population movements, diffusion of ideas,
forming markets and extending transport grids.
Globalization is an increased connection and co operation between human societies
through exchange of goods, capitals, movement of persons and exchange of
information, irrespective of the political and geographical borders. It is imposing a
particular pattern of civilization in the realms of thought, culture, economy and
politics and generalizing it worldwide.
2. What were some of the factors that contributed to globalization in modern days?
Some of the factors that led to globalization are :
• Political changes, emergence of Western capitalism as a widespread model.
• Technical development especially in the means and modes of transport and
communication.
• Establishment of International Organizations such as the International
Monetary Fund, World Health Organization, etc.
3. What are the forms of globalization ?

Globalization takes on 2 forms :
Economic Globalization
It involves free international trade whereby goods, services and capitals move
between states without obstacles or barriers. It helps to raise the standard of living,
through provision of goods and the ease of attaining them.
Cultural Globalization:
It is the transfer of ideas, customs and values between societies through the
internet, social media and international travel to reinforce social relations. It helps
to spread different cultures across national and regional borders.
4. List the important means of diffusing culture in the present time.

• Internet
• Social Media
• Travel
5. State the positive and negative effects of globalization.

Positive effects of Globalization:
• Global economic competition will lead to improved production in the fields of
industry, agriculture and services, making life healthy and convenient.
• Humanitarian problems can be solved through unified efforts to control
problems such as spread of diseases, environment pollution and challenges
relating to climate.
• Promotes human values like tolerance, co-operation and co-existence.
Negative effects of Globalization:
• Dissolving national and personal identity and reforming it in the framework of
a global personality.
• Suspending national interests especially when it conflicts with the interests of
globalization.
• Controlling domestic markets by global institutions of powerful influence.
• Dominance of powerful and influential nations over weaker states, until they
confirm to the needs of globalization.
• Aggravation of drug trafficking and terrorism.
• Widening the gap between the rich and the poor.
• Exploiting resource rich but under developed nations by rich, manufacturing
nations.
6. State some practical means and methods to combat the negative effects of
globalization.
• Enhancing and fortifying the national identity
• Changes to the educational system to keep abreast with the developments of
globalization.
• Implementation of laws to protect the interests of the weaker states.
7. Explain the following Sharia text with respect to the universality of Islam’s
perception of mankind:
(i)
“Would you (O Muhammed) compel men until they are believers.”
Surah Yunus, verse 99
Islam has secured the freedom of people to practice their own religion, as there
should be no compulsion in faith. Islam has to be accepted willingly.
(ii) The Messenger(PBUH) said, “Allah is beautiful and loves beauty. Allah is good
and only accepts that which is good. Allah is clean and loves cleanness.”
Islam advocates man to appear his best, do his best in all spheres, as
Allah(SWT) loves perfection.
(iii) The Prophet(PBUH) has said,” There is no superiority for an Arab over a non
Arab, nor for a non Arab over an Arab. Neither is the white superior over the
black, nor is the black superior over the white – except by piety.”
Racism or any other forms of discrimination is not permitted in Islam. We are

encouraged to show respect to all irrespective of creed, color, caste, gender or
nation.
(iv)
Indeed, Allah commands you to render trusts to whom they are due and when
you judge between people to judge with justice.
Surat un Nisa, Verse 58
Islam encourages virtues of trustworthiness and justice.
(v)
O Mankind, fear your Lord, who created you from a single person.
Surat un Nisa, Verse 1
Man should fear Allah(SWT) and abide by His rules, as he was created from a
Single person, Adam(AS). Hence all of humanity has to uphold the ties of
brotherhood.
(vi)
Say: “I am only a mortal like you. My Lord inspires me that your God is only one
God.”
Prophets and messengers are only mortals like us, and they have been given a
special status by Allah(SWT) to carry the message of Islamic Monotheism
(Tawheed). They should not be in any case elevated to the status of God.
8. Name some countries that strongly oppose globalization.

China and North Korea.
9. What is the Islamic view on globalization ?

Islam is a global religion and is not restricted to time, place or nation. The
Prophet(PBUH) dealt with people of other religions, in a perfect manner while
conducting trade, according to Islamic ethics. Islam encourages mercy, tolerance
and brotherhood, it does not advocate racism, terrorism or any other act which
causes damage to any other human being. Islam celebrates the differences in
different nations and does not compel anyone to have the same attire, tradition or
culture as long as it is within the limits of the Sharia. Hence Islam advocates
individuality as well as a feeling of community. It does not coerce any one to accept
Islam. Hence it tries to achieve all the positive effects of globalization while warding
off the negative aspects.
10. How does Islam unify mankind?

Islam unifies mankind through
• Belief in Islamic Monotheism
• Universal Brotherhood
• Non imperialization of natural resources
• Justice for all
• Upholding the dignity of human beings
• Spreading peace
11. What are the hazards of obliterating national identity?

Man has a natural inclination towards the nation he was born into. He feels a
sense of belonging and security. Obliterating national identity causes an identity
crisis, which leads to an extinction of certain societies and their cultures.

Chapter 2 : Prophetic Methodology in health care

remedy for it. What God has revealed from disease is revealed, and what is not
revealed is not …). What does this hadith tell us?
The Prophet Peace and Blessings be upon him has commanded muslims to get
treated for their illnesses. He has linked medicine to diseases. A cure is created by
Allah(SWT) for every disease. It is a duty upon the muslim doctors and scientists
to engage in research and investigations to discover medicines for diseases whose
successful treatment is unknown.
On the authority of Jabir, the Prophet (PBUH) said: "Every disease has a cure."
14.What does the Prophet (PBUH) relate cure of disease to?

1. The right treatment.
2. God’s will
The Messenger of Allah(PBUH) said, “Every disease has a cure. If a cure is applied
to the disease, then it is relieved by the permission of Allah(SWT).”
15. Explain: Prevention of infection in Islam is not a weakness in certainty, or escape

from the act of God?
Muslims when afflicted by diseases, should not have a lax attitude in searching for
a cure, attributing it to the will of Allah. They should make use of all available
means, in finding a cure for the disease.
16. The Prophet’s approach (PBUH) includes three topics to promote psychological
health. What are they?
1. Consolidation of the concept of faith
2. Enhancing the abilities of the Muslim to control his motives and emotions
3. Guiding the Muslim towards the necessary qualities of psychological health
17. What is the impact of Prophetic guidance in psychological health through the
following:
(i)Hadith of (If you ask, then ask Allah alone… And know that if the Nation were to
gather together to benefit you with anything, they would not benefit you except with
what Allah had already prescribed for you. And if they were to gather together to
harm you with anything, they would not harm you except with what Allah had already
prescribed against you.)
Relaxation and psychological comfort.
Muslims must rest reassured, that nothing happens except by the will of Allah.
If Allah has predestined something for us, then there is no force in the whole
World, which can stop it, similarly if Allah has not willed something for us,
however hard we may try with all our energy, money, etc, we will never be able
to achieve it.
(ii)Hadith of (When one of you looks at someone who is superior to him in property
and appearance, he should look at someone who is inferior to him.)
Satisfaction and being contented is the secret of happiness.
It teaches us to control our desire to own more and more materialistic things. It
guides us to thank and praise God
(iii)Hadith of (When one of you becomes angry while standing, he should sit down. If
the anger leaves him, well and good; otherwise he should lie down.) and hadith of
(The strong man is not one who is good at wrestling, but the strong man is one who
controls himself in a fit of rage.)
Controlling the motives of anger
Anger is one of the evil whispers of Shaytaan, which leads to so many evils and
tragedies, of which only Allah knows their full extent. For this reason Islam has
a great deal to say about this bad characteristic, and the Prophet (peace and
blessings of Allah be upon him) described cures for this "disease" and ways to
limit its effects.
