Start with bismillah.

Ask: "How can you tell that rain is coming?"

On luhaidan_eng, Muhammad Al-Luhaidan recites Al-Furqan; listen closely.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What do the winds bring?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why is rain called mercy?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Furqan is surah 25. Find ayah 48. The key word tahura means pure and purifying. The wind arrives first, carrying the smell and the clouds, then the rain falls. Water that cleans and gives life is a mercy.

Fact: What is the name for the smell of rain on dry ground?

Ages 5–8: Wind check. Hold a ribbon outside and see which way the wind blows.

Ages 9–12: Water cycle. Draw the water cycle and label where the wind helps.

Finish with: "I found the smell is called ___."

Talk together:

• Why does wind come first?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How is rain pure?
• What dua can we say when it rains?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will say a dua when it rains."

• Thank Allah for rain.
• Do a wind check.
• Share the water cycle.
• Next time: the next ayah (25:49) says the rain gives life to dead land and drink to many. Explore it together!

Action: Say a dua when it rains.
