Start with bismillah.

Ask: "Who decides what is part of Islam?"

A short clip on Taman Surga recites ayat 101–105 of Al-Ma'idah. Play the whole clip.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Who made these rules?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why is inventing religious rules wrong?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Ma'idah is surah 5. Find ayah 103. Before Islam, people made up rules about which camels could not be used or eaten. Islam removed these superstitions. Only Allah makes religious rules.

Fact: These old practices were setting animals free for idols based on superstition.

Ages 5–8: Who decides? Talk about who makes the rules of Islam.

Ages 9–12: Superstition. Write why Islam removed superstitions.

Finish with: "Only ___ makes religious rules."

Talk together:

• Who invented these rules?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• Why wrong?
• How do you check a rule?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will ask 'is this from Allah?' about a rule I hear."

• Allah makes rules.
• No superstition.
• Use reason.
• Next time: the next ayah (5:104) speaks of following fathers blindly. Explore it together!

Action: Ask 'is this from Allah?' about a rule you hear.
