Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Why does Allah give people time instead of punishing straight away?"

Raad Muhammad Al-Kurdi recites Maryam on Simple Dawah. A few minutes is plenty.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What does the Most Merciful extend?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How is extra time a mercy?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Maryam is surah 19. Find ayah 75. Ar-Rahman gives even lost people time to change. But time runs out. The wise use it to turn back to Allah.

Fact: Find the ayah that says Allah doesn't rush punishment (Fatir 35:45).

Ages 5–8: Timer game. Set a timer and finish a good task before it rings.

Ages 9–12: Time is a gift. Write how to use time wisely.

Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___, ayah ___."

Talk together:

• Why give time?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How do you use time?
• What will you change?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will use spare time for something good."

• Use time well.
• Play the timer game.
• Share your writing.
• Next time: the next ayah (19:76) speaks of guidance and lasting deeds. Explore it together!

Action: Use spare time for something good.
