Start with bismillah.

Ask: "What would you want to tell your family if you had one minute?"

Watch the MercifulServant recitation of Surah Yaseen.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What two things can they not do?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why shouldn't I wait to say kind things?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ya-Sin is surah 36. Find ayah 50. The key word tawsiyah means leaving instructions or a will. When the Blast comes there will be no time left. So the time to say I love you, sorry and thank you is now. Good words and deeds should not wait.

Fact: What is the Arabic word for a will, the instructions people leave for their family?

Ages 5–8: Love notes. Write or draw a thank-you note for each person in your family today.

Ages 9–12: Do it now. Make a list of three kind things you have been putting off, and do one today.

Finish with: "I found that a will is called a ___."

Talk together:

• Why shouldn't we delay good words?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• Who do you want to thank today?
• What good thing have you been putting off?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will say thank you to each family member for something specific."

• Thank your family now.
• Write love notes.
• Share your do-it-now list.
• Next time: the next ayah (36:51) describes the trumpet being blown. Explore it together!

Action: Say thank you to each family member for something specific.
