	"Trivia about Islam" is more appropriate for the title.

	nice quiz! a few things: alternate spellings of the two cities should include makkah and madinah/madineh which are usually how they're spelled in english-language books originating from the middle east. while peace is also accepted for the english translation, i feel as though it should be the primary answer, mainly because it's the answer most muslims would give worldwide. but if you're going to keep it at "submission" please consider adding (to God) in parentheses.

	also i don't know if arabic should be listed as the "holy language of islam." the qur'an is in arabic, but it doesn't mean that the arabic language is endorsed by the religion. people don't need to forgo their culture (or language) to be muslim, it's just that islam came to the arabs first and therefore the message was conveyed in arabic. also, minor point: "religious" is misspelled in the last hint

	Thanks for the awesome feedback. I agree with you about pretty much everything. I added the Arabic hint as I felt Arabic should be included to acknowledge its significant role in Islam. It is true, 85%+ of Muslims do not speak Arabic as their mother language, yet in daily prayers, when reading the Qur'an, and often in common greetings and conversations with each other Arabic rolls off any Muslim's tongue readily. Most Muslims make the attempt to speak and understand at least some Arabic as many in the Ulema, as well as every day Muslims, posit that in order to fully understand the words of their Lord Muslims should make every attempt to understand classical Arabic language. Thanks again.

	Great quiz. Couple nitpicks. Maybe include Kaaba and Qibla as answers for direction or prayer.

	For some reason typing "the" gives the answer to the "cities" question.

	I thought it was "West"... Got Mecca, though.

	Mecca and Yathrib (al-Medina). Nitpick as well but that is what it was called.
