Religious Studies Questions for BECE Exams.

Introduction

Hello students!
My name is David, and welcome back to All Cities Education. In today’s lesson, we will explore 40 top Religious Studies questions designed for the Basic Education Certificate Examination (BECE).

These questions cover both Christian Religious Studies (CRS) and Islamic Religious Studies (IRS). Although I am a Christian, I have provided clear explanations for both subjects to aid every student preparing for this important exam.

Understanding the BECE Religious Studies Exam

The BECE Religious Studies evaluation tests students on:

• CRS (Christian Religious Studies) – Teachings from the Bible, life of Jesus Christ, and Christian principles.
• IRS (Islamic Religious Studies) – Teachings from the Qur’an, life of Prophet Muhammad (SAW), and Islamic values.

These subjects aim to build students’ moral character, spiritual understanding, and religious tolerance.
