4-I guide
Musa asked Allah for a helper from his own family.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Who in your family helps you most?"
Hear the opening minutes of Ta-Ha in Abdul Basit Abdus-Samad's voice, from روائع فضيلة الشيخ/ عبد الباسط عبد الصمد.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Where did Musa want a helper from?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why is family help special?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ta-Ha is surah 20. Find ayah 29. Wazir means a helper who shares the load. Musa wanted someone close and trusted. Families can be teams for good.
Fact: Read 20:30: who did Musa name?
Ages 5–8: Family team. Do a chore together as a team.
Ages 9–12: Helpers. Write about a family member who helps you.
Finish with: "I found it was ___."

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will be a helper to ___ in my family."
Action: Be a helper.
