Answer Details
The second hadith in an-Nawawi's collection teaches that it is righteousness to worship Allah as if one is seeing Him physically. This means that one should strive to be in a constant state of mindfulness of Allah's presence and try to visualize Him in their mind's eye while worshipping.

By striving to worship Allah as if one is seeing Him physically, a person also develops a sense of accountability and responsibility for their actions. It helps them to stay conscious of their deeds and intentions, and reminds them that Allah is always watching and aware of everything they do. Overall, the second hadith in an-Nawawi's collection teaches the importance of mindfulness and sincerity in worship, and highlights the benefits of striving to worship Allah as if one is seeing Him physically.

Answer Details
The first revelation to the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) was Qur'an chapter 96:1-5, which is known as Surah Al-Alaq. According to Islamic tradition, the Angel Gabriel appeared to the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) while he was meditating in a cave on Mount Hira.

These verses contain the first divine message that was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and they speak about the importance of seeking knowledge and the consequences of rejecting it. The verses read: "Read! In the Name of your Lord, Who has created (all that exists), Has created man from a clot (a piece of thick coagulated blood). Read! And your Lord is the Most Generous, Who has taught (the writing) by the pen [the first person to write was Prophet Idrees (Enoch)]. Has taught man that which he knew not."

Question 5 Report
Lawhul-Mahfudh is associated with Quranic
Answer Details
Lawhul-Mahfudh is associated with the preservation of the Quranic text. In Islamic theology, Lawhul-Mahfudh refers to a heavenly tablet that contains the decrees of Allah. It is believed that the Quran was first inscribed on this tablet in its entirety, and then gradually revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) over a period of 23 years. The Quran is considered to be the literal word of Allah, and its preservation is of utmost importance to Muslims. It is believed that the Quran has been preserved exactly as it was revealed, and that it is free from any errors or changes. The preservation of the Quran is ensured by both the Lawhul-Mahfudh and the meticulous efforts of Muslim scholars and memorizers who have passed the Quran down through generations. The Quran itself states, "Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur'an and indeed, We will be its guardian" (Quran 15:9). This verse assures Muslims that Allah Himself is the guardian of the Quran and will ensure its preservation. Therefore, Lawhul-Mahfudh is associated with the preservation of the Quranic text, as it is believed that the Quran was first inscribed on this heavenly tablet before being revealed to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

Answer Details
The pre-Islamic practice of shigar was a custom that involved the exchange of sisters in wedlock between two different families or tribes. Essentially, this meant that a man from one family would marry a woman from another family, and in exchange, his sister would be married to a man from the other family. This practice was seen as a way to strengthen ties between the two families or tribes, but it was also seen as a form of exploitation and a violation of women's rights. Islam abolished this practice because it was considered to be unfair and demeaning to women. Instead, Islam emphasized the importance of free choice and consent in marriage, and encouraged marriages based on love, mutual respect, and shared values. In Islamic tradition, marriage is seen as a sacred and joyful union between two people who choose to be together, and the practice of shigar is no longer considered to be a legitimate or acceptable form of marriage.

Answer Details

Answer Details
The 8th of Dhu al-Hijjah is known as Yawm al-Tarwiyah because it marks the day when the pilgrims in Hajj prepare themselves for the main day of Hajj, which is the 9th of Dhu al-Hijjah, also known as the Day of Arafah. Tarwiyah means "to quench thirst" or "to water", and it is named as such because in the past, pilgrims used to fill their water containers in Mina on this day in preparation for the day of Arafah. On the 8th of Dhu al-Hijjah, the pilgrims put on the Ihram clothing and proceed to Mina, a small town near Mecca, where they spend the night in tents. This is where the pilgrims rest and prepare for the rituals of Hajj that will take place the following day.

The pilgrims spend the night in Mina in preparation for the next day, where they will head to the plains of Arafah to perform the most important Hajj ritual, which is standing on the mountain of Arafat in supplication to Allah.

Answer Details
Belief in the Prophets of Allah (God) implies that one should emulate their examples in serving humanity. Prophets are considered to be role models for believers and are revered for their moral and spiritual qualities. Muslims believe that the Prophets were chosen by Allah to guide humanity and convey His message to them. By believing in the Prophets, one acknowledges the importance of their teachings and the wisdom they imparted.

Answer Details
The Arabs worshipped idols during the Jahiliyya period because they were ignorant of the true concept of God's existence. The Jahiliyya period refers to the time in Arabia before the advent of Islam, when the Arabs were steeped in ignorance and practiced idolatry. They worshiped statues and idols made of wood, stone, and other materials, and believed that these idols had the power to benefit or harm them. The Arabs at that time had no knowledge of the true concept of God, and their understanding of religion was limited to superstitious practices and beliefs. They believed in many gods and goddesses and associated various powers with them. Despite the presence of some prophets among them, the Arabs did not pay heed to their message and continued in their idolatrous ways. As such, they remained in ignorance until the arrival of the Prophet Muhammad (SAW) and the revelation of the Qur'an, which taught them the true concept of God and called them to worship Him alone. Therefore, among the given options, the Arabs worshipped idols during the Jahiliyya period because they were ignorant of the true concept of God's existence.
