All Exam Questions2,680 questionsPage 78/268

The Federal Investigation Agency recruits across a wide range of grades, from Constable and clerical staff to Inspector and Assistant Director, and each grade has its own written test. This hub brings together more than 3,200 published questions transcribed from FIA past papers spanning 2002 to 2022, organised by post and then by paper. Inspector, Assistant Director and Sub Inspector are the most heavily represented posts; UDC, LDC, Assistant, ASI and the Assistant Director Investigation and Legal posts have fewer papers but are all live.

Across posts, the recurring subjects are Pakistan Studies, Islamic Studies, English, General Knowledge, Mathematics and Everyday Science, with computing questions weighted towards the clerical and Cyber Crime Wing tests. The recruitment tests have been conducted by different testing agencies in different years, and where the paper metadata records that, it appears in the paper name. Start with the post you are applying for and attempt its most recent paper first; the older papers show how the pattern has shifted over time.

The height of Hazrat Adam (AS) was ___?

Correct answer: B

A
60 feet
B
90 feet
Correct
C
80 feet
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue

According to authentic Islamic narrations found in Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) stated that Hazrat Adam (AS) was created at a height of sixty cubits. A cubit is approximately 18 inches (about 45 cm), so sixty cubits correspond to roughly 90 feet. This height is widely accepted in Islamic tradition, and it is also mentioned that people have gradually become shorter over generations since then. Therefore, option B (90 feet) is the correct answer.

Correct answer: B

A
People

Ransom
