KCSE IRE Paper 2 2012 Question 1(b) with Answers.


Rationale for the prohibition of homosexuality in Islam.
  1. Homosexuality is prohibited in Islam because:
  2. It can lead to the extinction of mankind because it prevents human beings from fulfilling the reproductive function.
  3. It is against the natural way of reproduction which Allah has prescribed for human survival on earth and which was advocated by all prophets of Allah.
  4. It destructs natural life as people become slaves of their lusts.
  5. Leads to moral degradation and lack of respect to those who practice it.
  6. Leads to life threatening diseases, some of which are unknown and have no cure e.g. HIV/AIDS.
  7. It is unhygienic and disgusting way of fulfilling human natural desires.
  8. Can lead to permanent body injury which brings about constant ailments to the person practising it.
  9. Leads to degradation of moral standards in the society, a society that practices homosexuality has no morals.
  10. Threatens the basic fabric of family life and values, an ideal family should consist of a husband, a wife and possibly children.
  11. It will lead to punishment from Allah. All those who engage in this unnatural act will be punished severely by Allah.

KCSE IRE Paper 2 2012 Question 1(a) with Answers.


(a) Discuss ways through which Muslims can discourage gambling in the society. (8 marks)

Ways through which Muslims can discourage gambling in the society.
  1. Guidance and counselling should be undertaken in madrassas, schools and mosques, to enlighten the Muslims on the evils of gambling.
  2. Creating employment opportunities for the youth to act as a substitute for the vice especially for those who are unemployed and are out to make quick money.
  3. Appealing to the authorities to ban gambling and the venues where it takes place, this will discourage many people from engaging in the vice.
  4. Establishing recreational facilities e.g. play grounds, gym facilities,swimming pools, IT centres e.t.c. especially for the youth who are more vulnerable and can fall into the vice.
  5. Parents to ensure that the youth are occupied in meaningful activities while at home so as to avoid idling and thus engaging in the vice.
  6. Muslim individuals/organizations to offer loans to other Muslims to start income generating projects and small businesses which will go a long way in discouraging the vice.
  7. Gambling as a vice is taught in the IRE syllabus and also in madrassas and this equips the youth with the relevant knowledge to avoid the vice.
  8. Creating awareness on the evils of gambling through the mass media e.g. radio, television, internet.
  9. Organizing workshops and seminars for experts to strategize on the best way forward of containing/fighting gambling.
