Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Could you go a day without speaking?"

Play the short Ali 'Imran clip of ayah 41 from Anak Sholeh.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What was the sign?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why remember Allah during the silence?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ali 'Imran is surah 3. Find ayah 41. Though he couldn't speak to people, he could still praise Allah. Morning and evening dhikr is a beautiful habit.

Fact: Morning and evening adhkar are dhikr said after Fajr and before Maghrib.

Ages 5–8: Quiet time. Spend five minutes in quiet dhikr.

Ages 9–12: Dhikr times. Write a morning and evening dhikr plan.

Finish with: "Remember Allah morning and ___."

Talk together:

• What was the sign?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• What did he do instead?
• When will you do dhikr?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will say morning and evening dhikr."

• Remember Allah.
• Morning and evening.
• Quiet times are precious.
• Next time: the next ayah (3:42) tells of Maryam being chosen. Explore it together!

Action: Say morning and evening dhikr.
