Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Why might two families have different amounts of money?"

Watch the Sunnah Kids video Rizq, an Islamic song for kids.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who decides how much provision each person gets?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Is someone with less loved less by Allah?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Saba is surah 34. Find ayah 36. The key words yabsut and yaqdir mean He widens and He measures out. Having more or less money is not a sign of how much Allah loves someone. Each amount is a different test: the rich are tested with sharing, the poor with patience.

Fact: What is the name of the obligatory charity that moves money from the wealthy to the needy?

Ages 5–8: Different cups. Pour water into different cups and talk about how each is still a gift.

Ages 9–12: Two tests. Write how a rich person and a poor person can each pass their test.

Finish with: "I found that it is called ___."

Talk together:

• Why isn't money a sign of Allah's love?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• What is your test right now?
• How can we help those with less?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will be content with what I have and share some of it."

• Be content and share.
• Try different cups.
• Share two tests.
• Next time: the next ayah (34:37) says what really brings us close. Explore it together!

Action: Be content with what you have and share some of it.
