Problems of the Humans and the Holy Quran” and neglect the other two. But, only one
or two questions are asked from these segments and sometimes this number falls to
zero.
It is a known fact that Islamiat paper in CSS exam has always been a tricky one. In
CE 2014, 8628 candidates failed this very paper. Moreover, during 2005-11, the
examiners have mainly focussed the contemporary challenges to Islam.
On the basis of my experience and interaction with the students, I have found these
10 mistakes responsible for very low scores in Islamiat:
1. The whole range of question in Islamiat paper can be divided into four segments:
a. Beliefs
b. Pillars of Islam
c. Islamic Systems
d. Fundamental Problems of the Humans and the Holy Quran
The students usually prepare two segments: “Islamic Systems” and “Fundamental
Problems of the Humans and the Holy Quran” and neglect the other two. But, only one
or two questions are asked from these segments and sometimes this number falls to
zero.
3. Then there is hardly any heed paid to maintain coherence and linkage between the
paragraphs.
4. The students neither memorize Arabic text of verses and ahadith nor do they
bother to write any text in actual paper.
6. The students do read the books but they fail to utilize their analytical skills
and creativity while writing down their answers. The students should consciously
try to think about the contemporary challenges to Islam and the ways to tackle
those.
8. Most students follow “read, read and read” principle but do not pay any
attention on enhancing their writing speed.
10. The last, but not least, are spelling and grammar mistakes.
If the above mentioned problems are overcome then there is no reason why the
students would get low scores or fail this paper. Proper, coherent and impressive
introduction to an answer is a prerequisite to scoring high in Islamiat paper.
Following suggestions can be helpful in improving the quality of your answer to get
the maximum score:
a. Issue-based
b. Argumentative, which may support the issue at hand
c. concluding, which are usually suggestion-based
3. During preparations you should focus basically the Islamic Systems and the
questions related to the fundamental problems of human beings and the importance
and role of the Holy Quran in finding solutions to them.
