4-I guide
He will have nothing to eat there except something foul.
Start with bismillah.
Look at a glass of muddy water and a glass of clean water. Ask: "Which would you drink?"
Watch the KiddieScience Toon video Water Filtration.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What food will he have?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can I thank Allah for clean food and water?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Haqqah is surah 69. Find ayah 36. The key word ghislin is something foul, the opposite of good food. The one who refused to feed the hungry will find nothing good to eat. Today we have clean food and water; many people work hard to clean water for us.
Fact: What are the main steps at a water treatment plant?
Ages 5–8: Mini filter. With an adult, pour muddy water through a cloth, sand and gravel in a cut bottle. What comes out?
Ages 9–12: Water journey. Draw the journey of water from a river to your tap.
Finish with: "I found that water is cleaned by ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will finish my food and not waste any."
Action: Finish your food and not waste any.
