Hello, Hadiza,

We probably need to see your code to give you a precise answer

My educated guess the code you need is 

.wildfire {
background-image: url();
}

This selects an element, any element that has the class of wildfire in your markup.

The property you want is background-image. This will give the element a background image. It's value is the url keyword with the path to your image passed into it. I'm not sure which image, if any the challenge wants but start off with this and you should be good to go :)
