The 2058 GCE Islamiyat Question Papers & Mark Schemes 2021 are valuable Cambridge examination resources for students, teachers, tutors, and schools preparing for Cambridge O Level Islamiyat (2058). They provide authentic past examination questions alongside the official marking guidance used to assess candidates.

For the May/June 2021 series, the available materials include:

• 2058/12 – Paper 1, Variant 2
• 2058/21 – Paper 2, Variant 1

Each question paper has a corresponding mark scheme.

The October/November 2021 series similarly includes Papers 11, 12, 21 and 22, together with their corresponding mark schemes.

Paper 1 – Qur’an, Hadith and Beliefs

The examination assesses candidates’ knowledge and understanding of important teachings from the Qur’an, Hadith, beliefs, and other prescribed areas of Islam.

The 2021 mark scheme shows that candidates were assessed using two main assessment objectives:

• AO1 – Knowledge: recalling, selecting, and presenting relevant facts from the main elements of the faith and history of Islam.
• AO2 – Understanding: demonstrating understanding of the significance of Islamic teachings in the lives of Muslims.

Paper 2 – History and Importance of Islamic Practices

Paper 2 assesses candidates’ knowledge and understanding of important aspects of Islamic history, practices, and their significance for Muslims. The 2021 Paper 2 question papers and mark schemes are available in both variants for the June and November sessions.

Official Mark Schemes

The 2021 Mark Schemes provide detailed examiner guidance on how marks should be awarded. They include:

• Generic marking principles
• Levels of response
• AO1 knowledge requirements
• AO2 understanding requirements
• Question-specific guidance
• Guidance on acceptable alternative answers
• Mark allocation for individual questions

For example, the May/June 2021 Paper 1 mark scheme was marked out of 50 marks, with candidates required to answer Question 1, Question 2, and two other questions.
