Start with bismillah.

Ask: "What is the biggest lesson you learned from Yusuf's story?"

Quran With Translation posted a short recitation of ayah 111 of Yusuf. Listen to all of it together.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who learns from these stories?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How will Yusuf's story change me?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Yusuf is surah 12. Find ayah 111. The surah ends: these stories are true, not invented. They are full of lessons, guidance and mercy. Yusuf's story teaches patience, honesty, forgiveness and trust in Allah.

Fact: List five lessons from Surah Yusuf using your story notebook.

Ages 5–8: Story review. Retell Yusuf's story in five pictures.

Ages 9–12: Lessons list. Write the five lessons you will carry with you.

Finish with: "My favourite lesson from Surah Yusuf is ___."

Talk together:

• What lessons are in this story?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• Which lesson will you live by?
• Whom will you tell the story to?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will tell Yusuf's story to a younger child."

• Live by the lessons.
• Retell the story.
• Share your lessons list.
• Next time: the next surah, Ar-Ra'd (surah 13), is named after the thunder. Explore it together!

Action: Tell Yusuf's story to a younger child.
