Animals in the Qur’an: Locust (جَرَادٌ)

This worksheet explores locusts, their swarming behaviour and their mention in the Qur’an as a sign sent to Pharaoh’s people. It also describes them as a metaphor for people rising from their graves. Children learn about accountability, Allah’s power in creation and gratitude for sustenance. Hadith also mention locusts as permissible food, teaching moderation and reliance on Allah’s provisions.
