Why Recent CSS Islamic Studies Past Papers are Essential

The CSS Islamic Studies paper (100 Marks) is a compulsory subject, and the FPSC’s trend from 2020-2025 shows a clear move towards analytical and contemporary application.

• Move to Application: Recent CSS Islamic Studies past papers rarely ask simple descriptive questions. Instead, they require candidates to apply Islamic principles (Tawheed, Ijtihad, Shura) to modern issues like extremism, economic crises, social justice, and women’s rights.

• The Critical Edge: The questions demand structured answers backed by Quranic references, Hadith, and scholarly opinions. Analyzing past papers shows you precisely which verses and historical contexts are most relevant to contemporary issues.

• Topic Consistency: Core areas like Seerah of the Prophet (PBUH) as a Role Model, Human Rights & Status of Women in Islam, and Governance in Islam consistently feature in every recent paper.
