We acknowledge the receipt of your query and our response is as follows: Firstly, we should remember that this examination is only a worldly one and if per chance (Allah Taaala save us) a person fails then he still has another chance. But the examination of the grave and Aakhirah is cuh that if a person fails (Allah Taaala save us) then there is no second chance. Hence a person should also ponder the final examination (the exams of life after death) when writing this examination. He must not get so involved in his worldly examination that it leads to violation the commands of Allah Taaala; for ex ample that he starts missing his Salaah with Jamaah, or begins to intermingle with members of the opposite sex during exam preparation, etc. Now for success in the examination, a person should read 150 times

( )

(ya-aleem)

after the Fajr Salaah daily. And on the day of the examination this should

be read in abundance. {Amaleyaat-wa-Taeweezaat (Pg 237)} When the question paper is given then you should not read it immediately, but turn it over and then do the following before reading the paper:(1) Firstly recite three times durood shareef. (any durood shareef) (2) Then read 11 times

( Glorified we are not aware that only taught us You are the Knower, Wise)
Translation: "Glory be to you, we have no knowledge except what you have taught us. Verily, it is You, the All-Knower, the All-Wise." (3) Then read 11 times
and eliminates obstacles.

Al-Fattah (The Decider): He who opens the solution to all problems

(4) Then read 7 times

Translation: And it is Allah (Alone) whose help can be sought against that which you assert. (5) Then read 3 times durood shareef (again) Thereafter turn the question paper on its correct side and read it carefully, then begin

answering the questions. Insha-Allah the answering will become easy. Remember that a person should at all times seek well being from Allah Taaala in all matters. He should read the following Dua:

( 4 272 )
Translation: Oh Allah Taaala I truly seek your forgiveness and well being (meaning in examination, memory, and concentration etc). May Allah Taaala make all our matters easy with safety Aameen. AND ALLAH TA'AALA KNOWS BEST.]
