1)Can we quote people like ordinary people,books.Also what about statistics? Like for example if there is a question on comparison of religions keeping in mind any issue...can we quote ramayan,bible? and also politicians....(along with ahadees and ayats obviously)

2)The answering style?

3)If we are writing an ayat which is very long...if we can't memorize the whole of it can we writ like this?

"And say to the faithful women to lower their gazes, and to guard their private parts, and not to display their beauty except what is apparent of it, and to extend their headcoverings (khimars) to cover their bosoms (jaybs), and not to display their beauty except to their husbands, or their fathers, or their husband's fathers, ........................And turn in repentance to Allah together, O you the faithful, in order that you are successful "


4)
also if I have to do selective study what topics should I focus on?

5)
and lastly the paper pattern has changed...how ill the ten surah's come?
