Reviewing questions from a test taken by a classmate who sat the exam before you
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. The questioner says: I am a university student, and my classmate studies in another hall and takes his exam a few days before me. Then I obtain these questions and review them, and some of them appear in my exam. Does this count as cheating?
The Shaykh:
Yes, this is cheating, this is cheating. Do not do this. Study the courses and do not look at the exam that was given, or imitate the students who took the exam before you. Rely on Allah, then on studying the courses. Yes.
The questioner:
You.
The Shaykh:
Allah the Exalted knows best, and may Allah send blessings and peace upon our Prophet Muhammad.
