Neco 2020 Islamic Religious Studies Objective / Multiple Choice Medium Difficulty
Question 31 NECO • 2020 • ISLAMIC_RELIGIOUS_STUDIES • objective

A student states the following beliefs: (i) Allah is the sole creator and sustainer of the universe. (ii) The Qur'an is the final revealed book. (iii) The Day of Judgment will occur and all deeds will be accounted. (iv) Angels record human deeds. (v) The Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the final messenger. (vi) He is uncertain whether everything that happens is predestined by Allah (divine decree). According to the six articles of faith (Iman), does the student's uncertainty about divine decree affect his status as a Muslim? Provide a brief justification.

Answer Options

A. Since belief in divine decree is optional, his uncertainty does not disqualify him from being a Muslim.
Correct Answer B. His uncertainty means he has not fully accepted all six articles; therefore, according to the definition of Iman, he is not considered a true Muslim until he affirms belief in divine decree.
C. His doubt about predestination is considered a minor flaw, but he is still regarded as a Muslim until he fully embraces the concept.
D. His uncertainty does not affect his status; as long as he believes the other five articles, he remains a Muslim despite doubts about divine decree.
Correct Answer
B
Correct Option:
His uncertainty means he has not fully accepted all six articles; therefore, according to the definition of Iman, he is not considered a true Muslim until he affirms belief in divine decree.
