Correct Answer:
C. 12
The question asks about the number of sons Hazrat Yaqoob (A.S.), known as Jacob in English, had. Hazrat Yaqoob (A.S.) had 12 sons, who are historically significant as the progenitors of the Twelve Tribes of Israel. This is a foundational fact in Abrahamic religions, particularly in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.
- Option C (12) is correct because it accurately reflects the historical and religious accounts.
- Options A (10), B (11), and D (13) are incorrect numbers. The narrative consistently mentions twelve sons, including Yusuf (Joseph) and Binyamin (Benjamin), who were born to his wife Rachel, and the others born to Leah and his concubines.
