Start with bismillah.

Ask: "What can old ruins teach us?"

Quran Ruku posted a short recitation of ayat 11–20 of Yunus. Listen to all of it together.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What did the messengers bring?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why did those peoples refuse clear signs?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Yunus is surah 10. Find ayah 13. Many peoples before us were sent messengers with clear proofs. Those who kept doing wrong and refusing were destroyed. The lesson is to listen to the truth when it comes.

Fact: The names of some peoples the Qur'an mentions, like 'Ad and Thamud.

Ages 5–8: Ruins look. Look at pictures of old ruins and talk about who lived there.

Ages 9–12: Lesson list. Write one lesson from the stories of past peoples.

Finish with: "Two destroyed peoples were 'Ad and ___."

Talk together:

• What did the messengers bring?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• Why should we learn from the past?
• How can you listen to good advice?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will listen to good advice the first time."

• Learn from the past.
• Look at old ruins.
• Listen to the truth.
• Next time: the next ayah (10:14) says we are now the ones being tested. Explore it together!

Action: Listen to good advice the first time.
