There is no need to consult M.M.Sharif. I didn't recommend u his hectic volumes.
Follow the paper pattern these years nd u wl find that u might attempt 3-4 Qs from portion of Western Philosophy.
And if there arises a need to attempt 1 Q from part of Muslim Philosophy, for it M.Saeed Sheikh wl serve the purpose.

Regardind ur last query, I presume its better to contact me . Here it wl be difficult for me to elaborate u each nd every topic.
Sir i have already tried to contact you through mail but your email id is not given in your profile. Kindly add it there or mail me as my email address is given in my profile. It will be a really great favor as aspirants like me who opt philosophy are facing many difficulties regarding proper guidance especially in paper 2. i am waiting for your response.

Overall I will say philosophy is a very interesting subject. whether you have background or not is not a question to worry about. Time is enough you can do it.
I had analyzed the past papers of philosophy and observed that according to recent trend paper 2 contains pretty much portion of muslim philosophy as compared to western but in mcqs, there is more weightage of western philosophy so one need to cover both portions to fetch good marks.
Please tell me is there any comprehensive book available in market that contain all these topics so one may get the required contents photocopied from it? Also do we need to study some book to understand history of philosophy before moving towards muslim or western philosophy?
