Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Is a job easier with one helper or with two?"

Watch the StoriesQuran video Dwellers of the Town.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "How many messengers came in the end?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why did Allah send a third one?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ya-Sin is surah 36. Find ayah 14. The key word fa'azzazna means We strengthened. When the people rejected two messengers, Allah did not give up on the town: He sent a third to support them. Teamwork in doing good gives courage. Musa also asked Allah to send his brother Harun to help him.

Fact: Which prophet asked Allah to make his brother his helper?

Ages 5–8: Three strands. Try to break one thin straw, then a bundle of three.

Ages 9–12: Team roles. Plan a family project and give three people different jobs that support each other.

Finish with: "I found that ___ asked for his brother's help."

Talk together:

• Why does support make people braver?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How did Allah show patience with this town?
• Who supports you when something is hard?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will be a helper to someone doing something good."

• Be someone's helper.
• Try three straws.
• Share your team roles.
• Next time: the next ayah (36:15) shares the town's reply. Explore it together!

Action: Be a helper to someone doing something good.
