Dolby 712 Posted January 30, 2021 #701 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Not sure about it but I think it is Islamic months. Awwal means Best/first in Urdu. Also, Hijjah could be the month of Hijra, the journey of Mohammed from Mecca to Medina. Wumo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quasit 849 Posted January 30, 2021 Author #702 Share Posted January 30, 2021 @Wumo Now it's all on you. Risk or leave the game. You lose 93,000 points if you get it wrong, 250,000 if the advice you've been given was good. Stopped watching sports, there are better things in life.

Quasit 849 Posted January 30, 2021 Author #708 Share Posted January 30, 2021 @Wumo It's all on you and 500,000 points. If you decided to go for it and got it wrong, we will subtract 218,000 points of what you have at the moment. Take your time, here is your 500,000 points question.

toulousain 35 Posted January 30, 2021 #709 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I would have prefered this 500,000 question... Quasit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wumo 2,796 Posted January 30, 2021 #710 Share Posted January 30, 2021 I think even if I spend hundreds or thosound of minutes on this question I would never be able to come with a solid guess. I have no idea. Not even the slightest. Quasit, I came here with zero points. I'm really happy to get to this point in the quiz, but I will stop and keep the points I have for now.
