Recognising Shirk with Care

This 16-question check tests the complete discipline taught in the lesson: the gravity of shirk, the open door of repentance, the authenticated example of lesser shirk, the difference between an act and a judgement about a person, verification, coercion and Arabic recognition. Every question gives an evidence locator. You need 100% for mastery and may reattempt without penalty.

Before you begin

  • Read the warning and mercy passages together.
  • Know the difference between an observable act, a general category and a personal verdict.
  • Return to the source instead of guessing.
