Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Who are the Children of Israel?"

Listen together as Mishary Alafasy recites ayat 36–40 of Al-Baqarah, a short clip shared by Satu Huruf Al-Qur'an 10 Kebaikan.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What are they asked to remember?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why start with remembering favours?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Baqarah is surah 2. Find ayah 40. Israel is another name for Prophet Ya'qub; his descendants are the Children of Israel. Allah reminded them of His favours. Remembering blessings helps us keep our promises.

Fact: Israel is another name for Prophet Ya'qub, grandson of Ibrahim.

Ages 5–8: Favour list. List favours Allah has given your family.

Ages 9–12: Two-way promise. Write about keeping our promise to Allah.

Finish with: "Israel is another name for ___."

Talk together:

• Who was Israel?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• What promise goes both ways?
• Which favour will you remember today?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will list one blessing each night."

• Remember favours.
• Keep promises.
• Be mindful of Allah.
• Next time: the next ayah (2:41) invites them to believe. Explore it together!

Action: List one blessing each night.
