It is contained in a set of writings and opinions.
D
It provides guidance for society and for personal behavior.
E
It is a record of stories that describe Muhammad’s life and actions.

Explanation
Sharia is Islamic law, and its guidance is based on the Qur’an and the Sunna. It guides both society and personal behavior, and its interpretations are found in writings and scholarly opinions. The Sunna records Muhammad’s life and actions, while the Qur’an is Islam’s holy book, so E and F describe those sources rather than Sharia itself.
