1) Correct Answer is 'True'
In Islam,'Aqeedah englobes a complete set of beliefs that caters for all aspects of the life of the muslim. This 'Aqeedah is the building stone upon which the muslim will, God Willing, mould his/her character and personality so as to become an obedient servant of Almighty ALLAH.
2) Correct Answer is 'True'
Man, from the beginning of his history, has continuously defied divine revelations sent to mankind and indulged in ways that are contrary to the path of righteousness shown by all prophets. Hence, all previously revealed books (e.g. Tablets of Moses (r.a), Injeel (given to Jesus (r.a) ) have been altered by man for his own selfish profit. On the other hand, Almighty ALLAH has given mankind the assurance that He will preserve the integrity of the Holy Quran, the last revelation, from such falsifications (refer to Surah Al-Hijr v 9 ). The good 'Aqeedah is therefore only found in the Holy Quran and the ways of Muhammad (Peace be upon him), the last messenger of Almighty ALLAH.
3) Correct Answer is 'False'
The Islamic 'Aqeedah gives a meaning to the whole life of the muslim (i.e. including acts of worship, relations with others, character, etc...). A person who has a wrong 'Aqeedah will display characteristics in aspects of his/her life that are contrary to divine appreciation. A wrong 'Aqeedah will undoubtedly lead a person away from the sweetness of faith to the path of those who are misled.
4) Correct Answer is 'True'
Islam is built on 5 pillars (Article of faith, prayers, poor-due, fasting and pilgrimage). It should however be distinguished from Imaan which is to have faith, in one's heart, in ALLAH, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day and in destiny (good or bad). Ihsaan, at a higher level, is for a person to worship Almighty ALLAH as if he/she sees HIM (although the person cannot actually see HIM).
5) Correct Answer is 'False'
Imaan is both to believe in ALLAH, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day and in destiny and to do deeds that reflect this belief. Imaan is thus not restricted only to belief but is concerned with doing deeds to confirm this belief.
6) Correct Answer is 'False'
Tawheed can be grouped into 3 categories, namely Unicity of Sovereignty (which means that nothing in Creation has the right to be associated with Almighty ALLAH in HIS Sovereignty of the worlds), Unicity of Divinity (which means that none has the right to be worshipped (performing acts of worship) except Almighty ALLAH) and Unicity of His Names and His Attributes (which means that none has the right to be given the perfect Names and Attributes that legitimately belong to Almighty ALLAH.
7) Correct Answer is 'False'
There are 7 essential conditions, namely, Knowledge, Conviction, Acceptance, Submission, Truthfulness, Sincerely and Love that must be satisfied for the first pillar to be accepted. It is therefore not enough for a person to just pronounce the article of faith but he/she has to understand the attached conditions and implement them.
8) Correct Answer is 'False'
Small Shirk does not remove a person from the limits of Islam. However, it is considered to be a very grave sin and as such it decreases the reward of the person, doing such an act.
9) Correct Answer is 'False'
A person who commits big Disbelief is considered to have crossed the limits of Islam. Consequently he/she needs to repent for the committed sin(s) to Almighty ALLAH.
10 Correct Answer is 'False'
Almighty ALLAH has described the punishment of hypocrites (those who falsely proclaim the truth but in fact conceal spite for truth in their hearts) as follows in the Holy Quran : The Hypocrites will be in the deepest part of Hell and they will not find any helpers (Surah An-Nisa v 145). Hypocrisy is therefore deeply disliked by Almighty ALLAH.
