4-I guide
He had also given them gardens and springs of water.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "What makes a desert land beautiful?"
Only the start is needed. Salah Bukhatir reads Surah Ash-Shu'ara here, uploaded by الشيخ صلاح بوخاطر.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What else did 'Ad have?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How rare are gardens in the desert?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ash-Shu'ara is surah 26. Find ayah 134. The key words jannat and 'uyun mean gardens and springs. In dry Arabia, springs and gardens were precious. 'Ad had everything. Great blessings bring great responsibility.
Fact: What is an oasis?
Ages 5–8: Oasis picture. Draw a green oasis in a desert.
Ages 9–12: Blessings and responsibility. Write how blessings come with duties.
Finish with: "I found an oasis is ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will not waste water."
Action: Not waste water.
