We are officially launching the quiz now with the first question. Whichever team answers it correctly first will be eligible for asking the next question.
This thread is strictly for questions and answers only. No discussion is allowed on this thread, except a clarification on a question or an answer.
Only one question must be asked at a time. No question should be asked until the previous one has been answered correctly, or three attempts have been made.
To keep the competition fair, we will have some simple rules:
All members of IslamicBoard will be divided into two teams: Brothers and Sisters
Staff members cannot participate in the quiz. They can only post a question if there is a need, or if there is a tie between the teams.
First question will be asked by one of the staff members. Whichever teams answers it correctly can post the next question directed to the other team.
Each team can have a maximum of three attempts to answer a question, each answer coming from a different member of the team. One person cannot attempt the same question twice. So discuss the answer among your team mates before posting.
If a team could not answer a question correctly, they will not get the chance to ask the next question. Only the team that answers correctly can post the next question.
Each right answer will earn your team 2 points. Each wrong answer will earn the questioning team 1 point.
No Googling allowed. You cannot search for direct answers, but you can read a book, an article, chapter etc or consult your knowledgeable friends (they should also not google it), or watch lectures, or go through previous threads on IB etc.
Everyone should mention how he/she found the answer. Be honest. Say whether you read it in a book, learnt it at school, heard it in a lecture or whatever. Don't cheat.
Participants are not allowed to edit their answers once they have posted.
Do not ask questions related to topics on which scholars have differed in their opinions.
Narrated from Abi Sukainah: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Let the Abyssinians alone as long as they let you alone, and let the Turks alone as long as they leave you alone." (Source: Sunan Abu Dawud 4302)
Narrated Abdullah ibn Amr ibn al-'As: The Prophet (ﷺ) said: "Leave the Abyssinians alone as long as they leave you alone, for it is only the Abyssinian with short legs who will seek to take out the treasure of the Ka'bah." (Sunan Abi Dawud 4309)
It has been narrated on the authority of 'Arfaja who said:
I have heard the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) say: Different evils will make their appearance in the near future. Anyone who tries to disrupt the affairs of this Umma while they are united you should strike him with the sword whoever he be.
Alright here's the question: At the end of a surah in the quran, Allah refers to people who do not love the enemies of Allah, even if those people were they're close relatives. Which surah, and who was the companion about whom the surah was revealed?
Sahih International: You will not find a people who believe in Allah and the Last Day having affection for those who oppose Allah and His Messenger, even if they were their fathers or their sons or their brothers or their kindred. Those - He has decreed within their hearts faith and supported them with spirit from Him. And We will admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow, wherein they abide eternally. Allah is pleased with them, and they are pleased with Him - those are the party of Allah. Unquestionably, the party of Allah - they are the successful.58:22
What the verse says...
As long as my heart does beat, I shall live, not lie
For when my heart does stop its beat, with truth, I die.
I believe it to be Hazrat Abu Ubaidah (ra). He fought his father at Badr right? Looks like the information from my school examinations is still fresh.
