Good luck everyone! I have Buddhism and Christianity tomorrow, and I’m predicting that something comes up on pilgrimage, funerals and worship for Buddhism as these haven’t come up yet! You’ll all do amazing :smile:

I’m running through flashcards that I made, as I noticed that information on RS for this exam board is quite hard to find! Has anyone got any recommendations?

one islam 15 marker was about if eid ul-udha is the most important festival in the islamic calendar, there was a 3 mark about prophet dawud’s importance to christians, a 3 mark about ihram, the other 15 marker was about if muslims should only use muhammad’s example to live as a good muslim or if they need other things as well

For people doing their mocks on Islam and Christianity the questions that I can remember are
Islam

State 3 rules of Ihram (3|)
Explain what Shia Muslims believe about their Imams(3)
Describe the belief in Allah as the one and only God(6)
Do Muslims need more than just Mohammed SAW guidance to follow Islam (15)+(3 for SPAG) (SAW is something Muslims put after the prophet SAW's name to show respect and I am Muslim)
Name 3 types of charity(3)
Explain the importance of Dawud AS to Muslims (3) ( again AS is something after the other prophets to show respect to them)
Why might a muslim pray in congregation (3)
Explain the belief of predestination for muslims (6)
Is Eid-Ul Adha the most important festival in Islam (15)

Christianity
Explain what omnipotence means (3)
Explain the role of God in the Genesis narrative (3)
Explain the trinity (3)
Explain divergent beliefs about salvation (6)
Is it possible for there to be an all loving God (15)+(3 for SPAG
