Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, across any board and any subject, with no card required and no trial countdown. Kramizo's optional Pro plan removes the daily cap and adds analytics, but the free plan is genuinely free forever. We make money from the small percentage of students who choose to upgrade — not from selling data or ads.

Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes so students learn exactly what marks are being awarded for.

Question

How many books are specifically named as revealed scriptures (Kutub) in the Qur'an, according to Islamic teaching?

Accepted Answer

Four — the Tawrat, Zabur, Injil, and Qur'an — Islamic teaching names four major revealed books: the Tawrat (Torah, given to Musa), the Zabur (Psalms, given to Dawud), the Injil (Gospel, given to Isa), and the Qur'an (given to Muhammad). Muslims believe the earlier books were altered over time, but the Qur'an is perfectly preserved. Six books is a fabricated distractor with no basis in Islamic theology.

Answer

Six — one book for each article of faith

Answer

Three — the Zabur, Injil, and Qur'an

Answer

Four — the Tawrat, Zabur, Injil, and Qur'an
