OBSERVATION

This is another historical question that required the candidates to explain only five out of the numerous issues raised in the Farewell Sermon of the Prophet (S.A.W.) and the performance recorded by candidates in this question underscored the popularity of the historical topic.  Despite this commendable performance, some salient points were still not mentioned by the candidates. Such points include the mention of four sacred months in which war was/is prohibited, prohibition of intercalation i.e. tampering with the Islamic calendar; the obligatory right of Muslims to spread the message of Islam and the reality of resurrection and accountability on the Last Day.
