Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Who feeds the birds in the sky?"

A short clip on Muslim Ummah recites ayah 6 of Hud. Play the whole clip.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who gives every creature its provision?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How does Allah feed so many creatures?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Hud is surah 11. Find ayah 6. From tiny ants to giant whales, every living thing gets its food from Allah. He knows where each one lives and rests. Nothing is forgotten.

Fact: Scientists estimate there are about 10 quintillion insects alive at once. A sign to ponder: Allah provides for each one.

Ages 5–8: Feed the birds. Put out some seeds or crumbs and watch who comes.

Ages 9–12: Food chains. Draw a simple food chain and write how Allah provides at each step.

Finish with: "The birds that came to my seeds were ___."

Talk together:

• Who feeds every creature?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• Which animal's food surprises you?
• How can you help feed creatures?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will put out water or seeds for birds."

• Allah provides for all.
• Feed the birds.
• Share your food chain.
• Next time: the next ayah (11:7) tells how the heavens and earth were created. Explore it together!

Action: Put out water or seeds for birds.
