Congrats to both teams. MashaAllah awesome effort.
InshaAllah we all left with gaining atleast one knew piece of knowledge from it.
Special congrats to the winning team and may Allah swt reward the admins greatly for their time and efforts, ameen.
Oh, and and I would've suggested that mohannad gets banned from the forum for atleast one week for his constant spamming, but his recitation saved him (mashaAllah).

This is the results thread.
So the brothers were able to pip the sisters ... such was the will of allah ta'ala.
Alhamdulillah
On behalf of the brothers' team:
1) massive jzk to our dear and respected sisters for the fantastic competition, it was excellent. ESP to sisters sadia, may (who couldnt be there) and her more than capable replacement sis sanah!
2) HUGE JZK to br muharrir and sis raj - they have been amazing in organising this, really they have (if only the rest of you knew what happens behind the scenes!
)
3) Huge jzk also to sis mumina and br hamzah - the moderating team.
4) well done to all the brothers who took part in the trivia challenge on the brothers side and likewise the sisters side.
5) to the great sense of activity at the forum in the lead up to the comp - jzk to all members.
May allah reward everyone who took part. What a great endeavour this was and alhamdulillah i learnt many new islamic facts through the process and it reminded me - again - of my sheer ignorance regarding my own deen.
may we be of those who strive to gain knowledge to please allah. Remember the intention here wasnt to win comps - there MUST be something deeper in all of this, and i pray many of us got a chance to reflect on that
