1.) The correct response from the drop-down menu for the source of Islamic thought that describes the words and actions of Muhammad is "Sunnah." To arrive at this answer, you need to understand the options provided in the drop-down menu and their relation to Islamic thought. The Quran is the holy book of Islam, but it does not specifically describe the words and actions of Muhammad. Eid al-Fitr is a holiday celebrating the end of Ramadan, so it is not related to describing Muhammad's words and actions. Sharia is the Islamic law, but it also does not specifically describe Muhammad's words and actions. Therefore, the correct response is Sunnah, which refers to the words, actions, and approvals of Muhammad.
2.) The correct factor that helped spread Islam is option B, "Merchants carried the faith to new lands." To arrive at this answer, you need to assess each option and determine which one aligns with historical facts. Option A, "People were looking for new beliefs," suggests a motive for conversion but does not explain the spread itself. Option C, "Rulers required residents to convert," implies forced conversion, which was not the primary factor in the spread of Islam. Option D, "People found new ideas easier to follow," is a general statement but does not specifically address the spread of Islam. On the other hand, option B's suggestion that Muslim merchants carried their faith to new lands aligns with historical evidence of the Arabic traders spreading Islam through their travels.
3.) During the month of Ramadan, Muslims take part in "daily fasting," which is one of the Five Pillars of Islam. To answer this question correctly, you need to understand the significance of Ramadan and the Five Pillars of Islam. Option A, "a pilgrimage," refers to the Hajj, which is another pillar of Islam but not specifically associated with Ramadan. Option B, "a period of silence," is not connected to Ramadan or any of the Five Pillars. Option D, "religious feasting," is more aligned with the celebration of Eid al-Fitr, which follows Ramadan, but not with fasting during the month itself. Therefore, the correct response is option C, "daily fasting," as Muslims abstain from food and drink from dawn to sunset during Ramadan.
4.) Shias believed that a relative of Muhammad should succeed him. To determine the answer, you need to be aware of the division between Shias and Sunnis regarding the succession of Muhammad. Shias believed that Ali, who was Muhammad's son-in-law and cousin, should succeed him. Option B, "one of the 'rightly guided caliphs," refers to the Sunni belief in the first four caliphs after Muhammad, not the Shia perspective. Option C, "a member of the Umayyad dynasty," and option D, "someone who had won many battles," do not represent the Shia perspective either. Therefore, the correct response is option A, "a relative of Muhammad."
