Opening the ayah…
وَلِكُلِّ أُمَّةٍۢ رَّسُولٌۭ ۖ فَإِذَا جَآءَ رَسُولُهُمْ قُضِىَ بَيْنَهُم بِٱلْقِسْطِ وَهُمْ لَا يُظْلَمُونَ
Wa likulli 'ummatin rrassūlun . fa'idhā jā'a rassūluhum' quḍiya bay'nahum bil-qis'ṭi wahum' lā yuẓ'lamūna
To every people (was sent) a messenger: when their messenger comes (before them), the matter will be judged between them with justice, and they will not be wronged.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
Every nation was sent a messenger, and when that messenger comes, matters between them are judged with fairness and no one is wronged.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "Do you think every place in the world was sent a messenger?"
Listen together as Bandar Baleela recites ayat 44–61 of Yunus, a short clip shared by RadioCoran.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "How is the judgment made?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "Why did Allah send messengers to every nation?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Yunus is surah 10. Find ayah 47. Allah sent messengers to every people in their own language. On the Day of Judgment, each nation will be judged fairly, with its messenger as a witness.
Fact: How many prophets are named in the Qur'an.
Ages 5–8: Prophet names. Say as many prophets' names as you can.
Ages 9–12: Many nations. Write why sending messengers to every nation is fair.
Finish with: "The Qur'an names ___ prophets."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will learn about one prophet I know less about."
Action: Learn about one prophet you know less about.
