Start with bismillah.

Ask: "If you cut your finger, what happens over the next few days?"

Watch the National Geographic video about sea creatures that regrow lost body parts.

Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "What two things does Allah do?"

Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How will Allah bring everyone back?" Younger children can draw theirs.

Find it in the mushaf: Surah Al-Buruj is surah 85. Find ayah 13. The key words yubdi'u wa yu'id mean He begins and He repeats. The One who made us the first time will bring us back on the Day of Judgement.

Fact: How long does it take a sea star to regrow an arm?

Ages 5–8: Regrow it. Cut the top off a carrot and put it in a dish of water. Watch new leaves grow.

Ages 9–12: Regrowth list. Find three living things that can regrow parts (sea stars, lizards' tails, plants). How does each do it?

Finish with: "I found that a sea star regrows an arm in about ___."

Talk together:

• What does regrowth in nature show us about Allah's power?
• Which name of Allah does this remind you of?
• If Allah began everything, is bringing it back hard for Him?
• How does believing in the return change how we live?
• What would you like to ask an ustaz or ustazah about this ayah?

Make a small plan: "This week, I will do one good deed I'd love to see again on that Day."

• Show someone your carrot top.
• Tell someone about sea stars regrowing.
• Next time: the next ayah (85:14) gives us two beautiful names of Allah. Explore it together!

Action: Do your good deed.
