Start with bismillah.

Tip a box of mixed toys onto the floor. Ask: "How would you sort these?"

Watch the Science Friday tour of a recycling plant. (It has music.)

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What is that Day called?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "What will be sorted on that Day?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Mursalat is surah 77. Find ayah 13. The key words yawm al-fasl mean the Day of Decision, the Day of Sorting. On that Day, truth and falsehood, good and bad deeds, will be clearly separated, with complete fairness.

Fact: How do recycling machines sort metal, paper and plastic?

Ages 5–8: Sort it. Sort your rubbish into paper, plastic and food scraps for one day.

Ages 9–12: Magnet test. Use a magnet to sort a pile of cans. Which ones stick, and why?

Finish with: "I found that recycling plants sort metal using ___."

Talk together:

• Why is it important that every deed is sorted fairly?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• What would you like your deeds to be sorted into?
• How does Allah's fairness make you feel?
• What would you like to ask about this Day?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will add one good deed to my day, every day."

• Add one good deed each day.
• Help sort the recycling at home.
• Tell your family what yawm al-fasl means.
• Next time: the next ayah (77:14) asks what will make you know what this Day is. Explore it together!

Action: Add one good deed to your day, every day.
