Opening the ayah…
يَوْمَ يَأْتِ لَا تَكَلَّمُ نَفْسٌ إِلَّا بِإِذْنِهِۦ ۚ فَمِنْهُمْ شَقِىٌّۭ وَسَعِيدٌۭ
Yaw'ma ya''ti lā takallamu naf'sun 'illā bi'idh'nihī . famin'hum' shaqiyyun wassaʻīdun
The day it arrives, no soul shall speak except by His leave: of those (gathered) some will be wretched and some will be blessed.
Translation: Abdullah Yusuf Ali

4-I guide
When that Day comes, no one will speak except with Allah's permission, and among people some will be miserable and some will be happy.
Start with bismillah.
Ask: "How quiet would it be if no one could speak without permission?"
Play the short Hud clip of ayat 96–109 from Generasi Quran.
Now listen to the ayah together in the app, with the translation. Ask: "Into which two groups are people divided?"
Each child keeps one wonder question, for example: "How can I be among the happy?" Younger children can draw theirs.
Find it in the mushaf: Surah Hud is surah 11. Find ayah 105. On that Day, all will be silent before Allah. People will be in two groups: miserable or happy. Our deeds now decide which group we join.
Fact: Find the happy group's reward in 11:108.
Ages 5–8: Happy group. Draw yourself in the happy group in a garden.
Ages 9–12: Two groups. Write what deeds lead to the happy group.
Finish with: "11:108 says the happy ones are in ___."
Talk together:
Make a small plan: "This week, I will do deeds of the happy group."
Action: Do deeds of the happy group.
