In early Islam, the zakat on trade wealth was established at a rate of 2.5% (one quarter of one tenth, or one-fortieth). This rate was codified in the second year after the Hijrah when detailed zakat regulations were established. For an investment of 200 dirhems, the zakat due would be 2.5% of 200, which equals 5 dirhems. Therefore, the correct answer is option C (5 dirhems).

According to Islamic teachings, camels less than 3 in number are exempt from Zakat. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) established that Zakat becomes obligatory when the number of camels reaches 3 or more.

Syed Ahmad Shaheed is known for his efforts to eradicate religious innovations (bid'ah) and revive the original teachings of Islam through his movement in the early 19th century.

Islamic tradition and tafsir literature commonly indicate that Prophet Yusuf (AS) was imprisoned for several years, often estimated around seven years initially. However, due to the prisoner's forgetfulness in mentioning Yusuf to the king, his imprisonment was extended for several more years. This leads to a total imprisonment period often considered to be around 10 to 12 years, which is longer than the 3 years stated in the original question. Therefore, the closest option given is D (5 years), but since the question options do not include 7 or more years, the best correction is to select the longest duration available, which is 5 years. The original answer of 3 years is not supported by the majority of Islamic scholarly sources and tafsir. Hence, the question and answer have been updated accordingly.

Shah Ismael was the key figure who strengthened and popularized the Faraizi movement after its founder, Haji Shariat Ullah. He played a significant role in expanding the movement's influence in Bengal during the 19th century.
