1Under the Afghan Civil Code (Qanoon-e Madani), what are the essential pillars (Arkan) required for the valid formation of any contract ('Aqd)?

A.Mutual consent (Ijab and Qubool) between competent parties, a lawful subject matter (Mahl), and a lawful cause/purpose (Sabab)

B.Mutual consent, a lawful subject matter, and registration of the contract in an official state register

C.Mutual consent and a lawful subject matter only, since the cause of a contract is never examined by the court

D.Mutual consent, a lawful subject matter, a lawful cause, and the attestation of two witnesses to the agreement

Explanation: Under the Afghan Civil Code's provisions on contracts (Article 496 et seq.), a valid contract rests on three pillars: consent expressed through offer (Ijab) and acceptance (Qubool) between parties with legal capacity (Ahliyyah); a determinable, possible and lawful subject matter (Mahl); and a lawful cause (Sabab) that does not offend public order or Sharia.

2What is the legal effect of 'Ghalat' (Mistake / Error of Consent) in the Afghan Civil Code when it relates to an essential quality of the subject matter?

A.The contract is void from the outset and produces no effect between the parties

B.The party who was mistaken may demand the annulment/rescission (Faskh) of the contract, provided the other party made the same mistake or knew or could have easily known about it

C.The court adjusts the price to reflect the quality actually delivered and keeps the contract on foot

D.The contract remains binding, and the mistaken party's only remedy is damages against the other side

Explanation: Under the Afghan Civil Code's provisions on mistake (Articles 562-569), an error touching a substantial attribute of the contract's object is a defect of consent (Ayb-e Iradah). It makes the contract voidable at the instance of the mistaken party where the other party shared the mistake or knew, or could easily have known, of it.

3How does the Afghan Civil Code regulate 'Ghubn-e Fahish' (Gross Disparity / Lesion) when accompanied by 'Taghreer' (Fraudulent Misrepresentation)?

A.The victim of fraudulent misrepresentation who suffered gross financial disparity has the statutory right to annul (Faskh) the contract within the statutory limitation period

B.Gross disparity alone entitles the injured party to rescind, whether or not any deception was practised

C.The contract stands, and the injured party may only recover the difference between the price paid and the market value

D.The contract is void from the outset, so no election by the injured party is required

Explanation: Afghan Civil Code Article 570 defines Taghreer as the use of words or acts of deception that induce the other party to contract, and Article 571 gives the deceived party the right to have the contract set aside where that deception produced gross disparity (Ghubn-e Fahish). Deception and gross disparity must be shown together.

4What is the foundational principle of civil / tortious liability ('Mas'ooliyyat-e Madani' / Zaman) for harmful acts under the Afghan Civil Code?

A.A person is only liable for damages if they signed a prior written guarantee with the police

B.Any direct or indirect harmful act (Fi'l-e Zarrar-rasan) that unlawfully inflicts injury or damage on another's person or property obligates the wrongdoer to provide full compensation (Khasarat / Ta'weez)

C.Civil liability applies only to foreign corporations, never to natural persons

D.Liability arises only if the damage exceeds 500,000 AFN

Explanation: The Afghan Civil Code (Article 776 et seq.) codifies the universal tort principle grounded in the Sharia rule 'La darara wa la dirar': every unlawful act causing damage to another imposes a mandatory obligation on the tortfeasor to make full restitution and compensate for actual loss.

5Under the Afghan Civil Code, what elements must a plaintiff establish to succeed in a civil action for damages based on non-contractual fault (Mas'ooliyyat-e Ghayr-e Qarardadi)?

A.Fault or unlawful act (Khata), actual damage or injury suffered (Zarar), and a direct causal link (Rabita-e Sababiyyat) between the fault and the damage

B.A criminal indictment and an admission signed in blood

C.Approval by a commercial marketing agency

D.Testimony from three foreign diplomats

Explanation: To recover in tort, the plaintiff must prove three cumulative elements: (1) Khata (an intentional or negligent wrongful act/fault), (2) Zarar (actual, direct material or moral harm), and (3) Rabita-e Sababiyyat (the harm resulted directly from the wrongful conduct).

6What is the legal definition of 'Milkiyyat' (Ownership / Real Property Right) under the Afghan Civil Code?

A.The exclusive, permanent, and comprehensive real right that empowers the owner to use (Isti'mal), exploit for fruits (Istighlal), and dispose of (Tasarruf) property within the limits established by law and Sharia

B.A temporary permission from a landlord to stay in a hotel room for one night

C.The right to destroy public highways without government permit

D.A shared right owned exclusively by the municipal municipal garbage authority

Explanation: Article 1900 et seq. of the Afghan Civil Code defines Milkiyyat (Ownership) as the primary real right (Haqq-e 'Ayni-ye Asli) conferring total authority over a corporeal thing: Usus (use), Fructus (enjoyment of yields), and Abusus (power of alienation, sale, gift, or destruction within lawful boundaries).

7What is a 'Haqq-e Irtifaq' (Easement / Servitude) under Afghan property law?

A.A real property encumbrance imposed upon a servient estate (Aqaar-e Khadim) for the benefit, use, or utility of a dominant estate (Aqaar-e Makhdoom) belonging to another owner (e.g., right of way, water passage, light)

B.A personal right of use granted to a named individual, which ends when that individual dies

C.A lease of part of a neighbouring parcel for a fixed term in return for rent

D.A statutory restriction imposed on all landowners by municipal planning rules

Explanation: Under the Afghan Civil Code's provisions on easements (Article 2339 et seq.), Haqq-e Irtifaq is an accessory real right burdening one parcel for the benefit of another, such as a right of way (Haqq-e Muroor) or water passage (Haqq-e Majra). It attaches to the land itself, so it passes with each parcel on transfer.

8What constitutes a 'Rahn-e Rasmi' (Official / Registered Real Estate Mortgage) under Afghan civil law?

A.An accessory security contract by which a debtor or third party grants a creditor an official registered real right over immovable property to secure payment of a debt, allowing the creditor priority in execution

B.A verbal pledge of personal clothing in a coffee shop

C.An unwritten promise to pay debts whenever the debtor feels wealthy

D.A commercial contract to build an airport in another province

Explanation: Under Afghan Civil Code provisions on security transactions, Rahn-e Rasmi (Official Mortgage) is a formal contract registered in the official land records (Makhzan-e Asnad) creating a security interest (Haqq-e 'Ayni-ye Taba'i) over real estate, granting the mortgagee priority (Taqaddum) and tracking rights (Tatabbu') over ordinary creditors.

9Under the family law section of the Afghan Civil Code, what is the legal status of 'Mahr' (Dower) in a marriage contract?

A.A financial right and property entitlement of the wife established by marriage, which becomes her exclusive personal property to manage or dispose of as she sees fit

B.A bride-price paid to the bride's father for his personal enrichment

C.A tax paid to the municipal marriage registrar

D.A non-binding ceremonial gift that cannot be claimed in court

Explanation: Under the Civil Code (Article 98 et seq.) and Sharia, Mahr is the mandatory statutory and contractual financial right of the wife arising from marriage. It belongs solely to the woman; neither her father, husband, nor relatives have any lawful claim over it without her voluntary consent.

10What is the legal difference between 'Talaq-e Raj'i' (Revocable Divorce) and 'Talaq-e Ba'in' (Irrevocable Divorce) under Afghan family law?

A.In Talaq-e Raj'i, the husband may unilaterally revoke the divorce and resume marital life during the waiting period ('Iddah) without a new contract or Mahr; in Talaq-e Ba'in, the marital bond is immediately severed and resumption requires a new contract and Mahr (or Halalah in triple divorce)

B.In Talaq-e Raj'i, the wife must pay all the husband's debts, while in Ba'in the husband is imprisoned

C.Talaq-e Raj'i applies only to foreign marriages, while Ba'in applies to domestic marriages

D.There is no distinction; all divorces are immediately irreversible with no waiting period

Explanation: Articles 145–160 of the Afghan Civil Code codify the Sharia distinction: Raj'i (first or second divorce without financial compensation) preserves the marital tie during 'Iddah, permitting reconciliation (Rujoo'). Ba'in (minor/Sughra or major/Kubra) terminates the marriage immediately, requiring a new marriage contract and dower to reunite.
