4-I guide
In both are two springs bursting out with water.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "How can water flow up out of the ground by itself?"
Watch the SC State Parks video Learn How An Artesian Well Works.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What kind of springs are in these gardens?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What makes water gush upwards?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Ar-Rahman is surah 55. Find ayah 66. The key word nadhdhakhatan means gushing forth. In an artesian well, water trapped under pressure between rock layers rises up on its own, without pumps. The springs of these gardens burst out with water that never runs out.
Fact: What makes water rise in an artesian well?
Ages 5–8: Squeeze bottle. Squeeze a water bottle with a hole in the lid and watch the water shoot up.
Ages 9–12: Pressure diagram. Draw how water trapped between rock layers can rise to the surface.

Talk together:

Action: Give generously to a charity or someone in need.
