So on that Day they will be partners in the punishment.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "If two people break a window together, who should fix it?"
Watch the Jellybean Tales video Al-Muqsit.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who shares the outcome?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Is it fair that both groups share it?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah As-Saffat is surah 37. Find ayah 33. The key word mushtarikun means sharing together. Those who misled and those who followed both chose wrong, so both share the result. Allah is Al-Muqsit, the Ever-Just One who gives each their due. The happy side of this: people who work together in goodness share the reward too.
Fact: What does the name Al-Muqsit mean?
Ages 5–8: Share the clean-up. After play, everyone who played helps tidy.
Ages 9–12: Shared reward. Write about a team project where everyone shared the reward of good work.
Finish with: "I found that Al-Muqsit means ___."

Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will team up with a family member for a good deed."
Action: Team up with a family member for a good deed.
