Ladies and Gentlemen!

Hard work has its rewards but the brevity of time compels on to do smart work ( february is drawing nearer). Get hold of the previous papers and study the pattern and the high frequency questions.. According to my observation, almost 60 percent of the questions are repeated whereas others appear in alternate years. Having studied the papers , make a list of 25 to 30 high frequency questions and tally those questions with the contents of various books of islamic history in any book stall. The one covering the most of the topics would be the suitable book.

Likewise, it is extremely important to study objectively and not indulge in excesses. I have read Mazhar ul Haq's version, K.Ali's version and Even Sohail Bhatti. K.Ali and Mazhar ul Haq have a beautiful script but deficient in north african history and details on spain, therefore Sohail Bhatti should be followed. It is convenient in revision due to the headings in each topic and will help considerably.

Now the question arises about the MCQa, solve the last ten years papers plus get hold of a good MCQ book on Islamic history and you will find it equally beneficial for Islamiat paper.
