Many candidates attempted this question. They were able to point on Kufi as a superstitious society. Only a few of them could not differentiate between the tradition and superstitions of the people of Kufi.

 

The required answers should include:

• Superstition about unnatural deaths.
• The belief of involvement of widows in the death of their husbands.
• The belief that the elements and creatures communicate with humans.
• The belief in reincarnation.
