4-I guide
Musa asked Harun why he hadn't followed after him, and whether he had gone against his instruction.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What does it mean to follow someone's instructions?"
Play the short clip from Quran Recitation of Abdur-Rahman As-Sudais reciting part of Ta-Ha of Ta-Ha.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What did Musa ask about his order?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How did Musa feel?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ta-Ha is surah 20. Find ayah 93. Musa had asked Harun to look after the people. He wondered if Harun had not done it. Big feelings can make us ask hard questions.
Fact: Find what Musa told Harun before leaving (Al-A'raf 7:142).
Ages 5–8: Instructions. Follow a three-step instruction game.
Ages 9–12: Trust. Write about being trusted with a job.
Finish with: "I found it in Surah ___, ayah ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will do a job I'm trusted with carefully."
Action: Do a job you're trusted with carefully.
