Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Can anyone escape the results of their choices forever?"

Watch the IQRA CARTOON video The People of the Garden.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What struck the earlier people?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can I make choices with good results?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Az-Zumar is surah 39. Find ayah 51. The key word mu'jizin means able to escape. The owners of the garden in Surah Al-Qalam planned to keep everything for themselves and give nothing to the poor. Their garden was ruined overnight. Choices have results, and no one can escape Allah's justice. Good choices bring good results.

Fact: Which ayah in Surah Al-Ankabut lists the different ways earlier peoples were taken?

Ages 5–8: Garden share. Plant seeds and promise to share the harvest with others.

Ages 9–12: Choice and result. Write the story of the garden owners and what they should have done.

Finish with: "I found that the ayah is Al-Ankabut ___."

Talk together:

• What did the garden owners do wrong?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• How can sharing protect our blessings?
• What good choice will you make today?
• What would you like to ask about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will share something with someone in need."

• Share with someone in need.
• Plant and promise to share.
• Share choice and result.
• Next time: the next ayah (39:52) says Allah gives more or less to whom He wills. Explore it together!

Action: Share something with someone in need.
