Islamic concepts quiz

To understand the underlying concepts within IFQ, it is essential to have a reasonable understanding of Islam.  This is self evident . Obviously I am not assuming that you know your way through all the Sura in the Qur’an.  In order that we can both judge your background knowledge of Islam I have designed this short concepts quiz. In the event that you know most of the answers I can plunge into the technical material immediately.  If however you need an Islamic refresher I will take a step back and begin at the beginning so to speak.
