Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Can water come out of a rock?"

Begin Mishary Alafasy's Al-Baqarah on Alafasy and listen for a few minutes.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "How many springs?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why twelve springs?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Baqarah is surah 2. Find ayah 60. There were twelve tribes, so each had its own spring and no one had to fight. Allah's provision is organised and fair.

Fact: The Children of Israel were twelve tribes, one for each son of Ya'qub.

Ages 5–8: Twelve springs. Draw a rock with twelve streams.

Ages 9–12: Fair sharing. Write how twelve springs prevented fights.

Finish with: "Musa struck the rock with his ___."

Talk together:

• How many springs?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• Why twelve?
• How will you share fairly?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will share fairly with my siblings."

• Allah provides.
• Share fairly.
• Don't spread harm.
• Next time: the next ayah (2:61) tells of a complaint about food. Explore it together!

Action: Share fairly with your siblings.
